All research outputs
#21,953,668
of 27,790,740 outputs
Outputs from British Dental Journal
#5,500
of 6,794 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#133,383
of 160,321 outputs
Outputs of similar age from British Dental Journal
#52
of 67 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 27,790,740 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 18th percentile – i.e., 18% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 6,794 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a little more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 7.4. This one is in the 15th percentile – i.e., 15% 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 160,321 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 15th percentile – i.e., 15% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 67 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 14th percentile – i.e., 14% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
