Exclusive enteral nutrition is an effective therapy for the management of active Crohn's disease, especially in children and adolescents. This therapeutic approach involves the use of a liquid nutritional product with the exclusion of normal diet for a period of many weeks. Although recent studies have helped to delineate some aspects of how exclusive enteral nutrition should be used, there remain many gaps in our understanding. In addition, several recent reports have provided intriguing insights into the mechanisms of this nutritional approach.

Attention Score in Context
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 3. 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 25 April 2013.
All research outputs
#16,342,263
of 27,773,453 outputs
Outputs from Expert Review of Clinical Immunology
#502
of 1,012 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#185,776
of 328,139 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Expert Review of Clinical Immunology
#177
of 241 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 27,773,453 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 40th percentile – i.e., 40% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 1,012 research outputs from this source. They typically receive more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 8.9. This one is in the 49th percentile – i.e., 49% 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 328,139 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 42nd percentile – i.e., 42% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 241 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 26th percentile – i.e., 26% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
