Abstract

Metabolic surgery is a novel therapy for mild obesity (BMI 30-35 Kg/m(2)) in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) patients. The ABCD score, which comprise age, BMI, C-peptide level, and duration of T2DM (years), was reported as useful in predicting the success of T2DM treatment using metabolic surgery. This study examines gastric bypass and sleeve gastrectomy as a salvage treatment for non-obese (BMI < 30 kg/m(2)) T2DM patients and evaluates the role of ABCD scores.

Attention Score in Context

Attention Score in Context

This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 3. 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 25 March 2016.
All research outputs
#12,857,684
of 22,792,160 outputs
Outputs from Obesity Surgery
#1,534
of 3,371 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#167,010
of 358,538 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Obesity Surgery
#24
of 82 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 22,792,160 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 43rd percentile – i.e., 43% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 3,371 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a little more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 5.6. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 54% 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 358,538 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 53% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 82 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 70% of its contemporaries.
