| Abstract |
To assess safety of the switch between natalizumab and fingolimod without a washout period. Prospective data on 25 JCV positive patients who underwent this medication switch were collected and analyzed. After a median period of nine months from the medication switch, there were no safety issues to report. The patients had good disease control and no adverse events were reported. Washout may not be necessary in daily practice when switching from natalizumab to fingolimod. Expertise on multiple sclerosis management, however, is essential for drug switching. |

Attention Score in Context
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 2. 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 August 2016.
All research outputs
#15,170,530
of 25,374,917 outputs
Outputs from Arquivos de Neuro-Psiquiatria
#632
of 1,368 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#215,642
of 381,031 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Arquivos de Neuro-Psiquiatria
#7
of 22 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 25,374,917 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 38th percentile – i.e., 38% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 1,368 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 4.0. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 52% 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 381,031 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 41st percentile – i.e., 41% 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 has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 63% of its contemporaries.
