This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 10. 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 14 August 2019.
All research outputs
#3,180,972
of 23,153,184 outputs
Outputs from PLOS ONE
#41,922
of 197,781 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#66,829
of 345,067 outputs
Outputs of similar age from PLOS ONE
#614
of 2,531 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 23,153,184 research outputs across all sources so far. Compared to these this one has done well and is in the 86th percentile: it's in the top 25% of all research outputs ever tracked by Altmetric.
So far Altmetric has tracked 197,781 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a lot more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 15.2. This one has done well, scoring higher than 78% of its peers.
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 345,067 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one has done well, scoring higher than 80% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 2,531 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has done well, scoring higher than 75% of its contemporaries.
