Abstract

Our case series describes three children who were initially diagnosed as having severe pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) and subsequently found to be positive for specific autoantibodies suggestive of an underlying autoimmune process. The signs and symptoms of PAH are subtle and may be part of the initial presentation of childhood connective tissue disease (CTD). Evaluation for connective tissue disease in the newly diagnosed pulmonary hypertension (PH) patient is important because early diagnosis of PH as well as CTD is crucial in the successful management of these complex patients. Ongoing monitoring for CTD in patients with severe PAH is warranted.

Attention Score in Context

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 04 January 2012.
All research outputs
#20,153,989
of 22,661,413 outputs
Outputs from Pediatric Cardiology
#1,096
of 1,405 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#101,891
of 108,654 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Pediatric Cardiology
#10
of 13 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 22,661,413 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 1,405 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 2.7. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% 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 108,654 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 13 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
