#6,178,579
of 31,885,353 outputs
Outputs from Nature
#67,378
of 112,657 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#12,867
of 65,224 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Nature
#170
of 351 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 31,885,353 research outputs across all sources so far. Compared to these this one has done well and is in the 79th percentile: it's in the top 25% of all research outputs ever tracked by Altmetric.
So far Altmetric has tracked 112,657 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a lot more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 97.6. This one is in the 39th percentile – i.e., 39% 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 65,224 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one has done well, scoring higher than 79% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 351 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 46th percentile – i.e., 46% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
