This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 21. 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 03 April 2023.
All research outputs
#2,203,410
of 32,911,318 outputs
Outputs from PLoS Biology
#2,889
of 7,558 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#8,767
of 154,023 outputs
Outputs of similar age from PLoS Biology
#14
of 78 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 32,911,318 research outputs across all sources so far. Compared to these this one has done particularly well and is in the 93rd percentile: it's in the top 10% of all research outputs ever tracked by Altmetric.
So far Altmetric has tracked 7,558 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a lot more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 57.6. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 61% 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 154,023 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one has done particularly well, scoring higher than 94% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 78 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has done well, scoring higher than 82% of its contemporaries.
