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 12 May 2026.
All research outputs
#9,515,628
of 27,781,301 outputs
Outputs from The Annals of Thoracic Surgery
#4,112
of 10,872 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#6,944
of 21,240 outputs
Outputs of similar age from The Annals of Thoracic Surgery
#7
of 27 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 27,781,301 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 42nd percentile – i.e., 42% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 10,872 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a little more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 6.4. This one is in the 27th percentile – i.e., 27% 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 21,240 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 6th percentile – i.e., 6% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 27 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.
