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 August 2026.
All research outputs
#97,775
of 34,334,818 outputs
Outputs from Nature Medicine
#594
of 11,539 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#2,730
of 569,647 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Nature Medicine
#24
of 148 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 34,334,818 research outputs across all sources so far. Compared to these this one has done particularly well and is in the 99th percentile: it's in the top 5% of all research outputs ever tracked by Altmetric.
So far Altmetric has tracked 11,539 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a lot more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 110.4. This one has done particularly well, scoring higher than 94% 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 569,647 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 99% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 148 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has done well, scoring higher than 83% of its contemporaries.
