Abstract

Chronic lymphoedematous limbs have an increased propensity for infections and primary or secondary malignant tumours. It has been attributed to suppressed delayed-type hypersensitivity measured in lymphoedemas related to Stewart-Treves syndrome, Kaposi's sarcoma or breast cancer treatment. Cell-mediated immunity is an effective defence mechanism against bacteria, fungi, viruses and tumour cells.

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 26 July 2012.
All research outputs
#19,942,887
of 25,371,288 outputs
Outputs from Journal of the European Academy of Dermatology & Venereology
#3,672
of 5,367 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#134,845
of 178,588 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Journal of the European Academy of Dermatology & Venereology
#44
of 54 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 25,371,288 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 18th percentile – i.e., 18% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 5,367 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a lot more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 11.8. This one is in the 28th percentile – i.e., 28% 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 178,588 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 21st percentile – i.e., 21% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 54 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 12th percentile – i.e., 12% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
