Abstract

This study reports, for the first time, the presence of Panstrongylus lignarius in the State of Rondonia, Brazil. Specimen of P. lignarius was collected from a flat in an urban area of the municipality of Porto Velho, Western Amazon. With this finding of P. lignarius, the number of Triatominae species in the State of Rondonia has increased from six to seven. The occurrence of P. lignarius is worrisome, because this species has been found to be naturally infected with Trypanosoma cruzi and there has been evidence of its domiciliation capabilities in other countries of South America.

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 06 October 2017.
All research outputs
#17,292,294
of 25,382,440 outputs
Outputs from Revista da Sociedade Brasileira de Medicina Tropical
#534
of 1,193 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#209,586
of 327,522 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Revista da Sociedade Brasileira de Medicina Tropical
#8
of 26 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 25,382,440 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 21st percentile – i.e., 21% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 1,193 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 2.9. This one is in the 44th percentile – i.e., 44% 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 327,522 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 27th percentile – i.e., 27% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 26 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 65% of its contemporaries.
