Attention Score in Context
Attention Score in Context
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 344. 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 26 February 2026.
All research outputs
#121,254
of 34,634,910 outputs
Outputs from New England Journal of Medicine
#2,915
of 38,547 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#3,072
of 463,359 outputs
Outputs of similar age from New England Journal of Medicine
#96
of 296 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 34,634,910 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 38,547 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a lot more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 120.1. This one has done particularly well, scoring higher than 92% 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 463,359 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 296 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 67% of its contemporaries.
