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 20 August 2026.
All research outputs
#882,294
of 30,096,795 outputs
Outputs from Science
#17,202
of 89,055 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#2,301
of 121,071 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Science
#46
of 382 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 30,096,795 research outputs across all sources so far. Compared to these this one has done particularly well and is in the 97th percentile: it's in the top 5% of all research outputs ever tracked by Altmetric.
So far Altmetric has tracked 89,055 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a lot more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 67.0. This one has done well, scoring higher than 80% 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 121,071 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 98% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 382 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has done well, scoring higher than 87% of its contemporaries.
