Abstract

Polymyalgia rheumatica (PMR) is the most common inflammatory rheumatic disease in persons over the age of 50 years. There are many diseases which mimic PMR, for which reason a careful diagnostic approach is required. While it is thought to be exquisitely responsive to glucocorticosteroid therapy, many patients respond incompletely and/or develop serious side effects over the protracted disease course. Improved methods for classification and disease assessment together with standardized treatment approaches and outcome assessments can serve to improve the care of patients with this disease.

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 19 November 2015.
All research outputs
#15,349,796
of 22,832,057 outputs
Outputs from Rheumatology International
#1,539
of 2,180 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#157,217
of 267,724 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Rheumatology International
#14
of 22 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 22,832,057 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 22nd percentile – i.e., 22% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 2,180 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a little more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 5.6. This one is in the 22nd percentile – i.e., 22% 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 267,724 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 32nd percentile – i.e., 32% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 22 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 22nd percentile – i.e., 22% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
