Abstract

There is increasing concern over the cost of pharmaceuticals. An approach to assessing the value of new pharmaceuticals compared with previous standards is cost-effectiveness analysis. Although cost-effectiveness analysis may not be able to directly answer societal questions about new drugs, it can make the underlying assumptions clear. As new pharmaceuticals are becoming more expensive, the issues concerning societal willingness-to-pay become more critical. This is especially true of biologics, where the cost of manufacture is much higher than for small molecules. Indeed, new biologics have gone from being unusual to dominating the market for new pharmaceuticals. Efficiency in manufacturing will need to be gradually addressed to make these life-saving therapies more widely available.

Attention Score in Context

Attention Score in Context

This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 4. 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 08 March 2018.
All research outputs
#8,478,408
of 25,382,440 outputs
Outputs from JACC: Basic to Translational Science
#534
of 799 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#138,252
of 344,853 outputs
Outputs of similar age from JACC: Basic to Translational Science
#7
of 14 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 25,382,440 research outputs across all sources so far. This one has received more attention than most of these and is in the 66th percentile.
So far Altmetric has tracked 799 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a lot more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 20.4. This one is in the 32nd percentile – i.e., 32% 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 344,853 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 59% 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 gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 50% of its contemporaries.
