| Abstract |
Otoacariasis, the attachment of ticks and mites within the ear canal is a common phenomenon especially in rural areas. To determine the clinical and demographic features of cases with detected ticks in the ear canal, which is a common health problem, and identify tick species. Data of patients who had otoacariasis were collected. We also investigated all ticks at the Veterinary Department of Kafkas University. We present the data of patients with otoacariasis. All ticks were identified as otobius. Otobius ticks were found not related with any complications. It is very important to detect ticks in the ear canal as they act as vector of some diseases. Identifying species of ticks may help clinicians to prevent further complications associated with vector-borne diseases. |

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 07 November 2015.
All research outputs
#22,759,452
of 25,374,647 outputs
Outputs from Brazilian Journal of Otorhinolaryngology
#574
of 726 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#254,303
of 297,298 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Brazilian Journal of Otorhinolaryngology
#132
of 153 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 25,374,647 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 726 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a little more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 6.2. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% 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 297,298 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 153 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
