| Abstract |
Jet lag syndrome appears after multiple time zone transitions as bodily rhythms shift out of phase with the local environment. The possible psychiatric complications of jet lag have been underinvestigated. In the present review, the symptoms of jet lag in the general population, the chronobiological aspects of psychosis, as well as a possible correlation between jet lag and psychosis are discussed. The conclusions are that jet lag, through disruption of biological rhythm and probably sleep deprivation, may yield an exacerbation of existing psychotic conditions. The evidence concerning the appearance of de novo psychosis triggered by jet lag is inconsistent and far from convincing. |

Attention Score in Context
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 31. 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 07 March 2018.
All research outputs
#1,213,519
of 24,578,676 outputs
Outputs from Current Psychiatry Reports
#143
of 1,250 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#4,458
of 112,737 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Current Psychiatry Reports
#2
of 14 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 24,578,676 research outputs across all sources so far. Compared to these this one has done particularly well and is in the 95th percentile: it's in the top 5% of all research outputs ever tracked by Altmetric.
So far Altmetric has tracked 1,250 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a lot more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 20.2. This one has done well, scoring higher than 88% 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 112,737 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one has done particularly well, scoring higher than 96% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 14 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has done particularly well, scoring higher than 92% of its contemporaries.
