Attention Score in Context
Attention Score in Context
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 31. 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 13 March 2026.
All research outputs
#1,543,998
of 32,441,053 outputs
Outputs from Nature Communications
#23,985
of 77,867 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#29,011
of 463,797 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Nature Communications
#619
of 1,754 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 32,441,053 research outputs across all sources so far. Compared to these this one has done particularly well and is in the 95th percentile: it's in the top 5% of all research outputs ever tracked by Altmetric.
So far Altmetric has tracked 77,867 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a lot more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 50.1. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 69% 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 463,797 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 93% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 1,754 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 64% of its contemporaries.
