Abstract |
Adult studies evaluating corticosteroids have found varied efficacy. One study showing mortality benefit utilized fludrocortisone (FLU) and hydrocortisone (HC) (Effect of treatment with low doses of hydrocortisone and fludrocortisone on mortality in patients with septic shock. JAMA 288:862-871, 2002). Use of FLU in children has not been described. We developed a protocol using HC for systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS) and shock with optional addition of FLU. |

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 06 January 2011.
All research outputs
#15,240,835
of 22,660,862 outputs
Outputs from Intensive Care Medicine
#3,992
of 4,967 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#140,284
of 180,227 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Intensive Care Medicine
#21
of 25 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 22,660,862 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 22nd percentile – i.e., 22% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 4,967 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a lot more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 26.5. This one is in the 13th percentile – i.e., 13% 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 180,227 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 12th percentile – i.e., 12% 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.
