An 11-year-old boy was admitted with mildly painful swallowing. His parents mentioned he had had bad breath for 4 months. He had presented with the same complaint several times at medical centres, and some antibiotics and analgesics were given. During examination, bad breath (halitosis) was noted (figure 1). There was no cervical and submandibular lymphadenopathy and fever. edpract;archdischild-2018-315509v1/F1F1F1Figure 1Oropharyngeal examination on admission.

Attention Score in Context
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 1. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 31 July 2018.
All research outputs
#17,292,294
of 25,385,509 outputs
Outputs from Archives of Disease in Childhood -- Education & Practice Edition
#701
of 889 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#219,611
of 340,738 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Archives of Disease in Childhood -- Education & Practice Edition
#23
of 25 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 25,385,509 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 21st percentile – i.e., 21% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 889 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a lot more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 11.6. This one is in the 15th percentile – i.e., 15% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 340,738 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 27th percentile – i.e., 27% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 25 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 4th percentile – i.e., 4% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
