Attention Score in Context
Attention Score in Context
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 4. 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 08 July 2025.
All research outputs
#10,718,187
of 34,386,255 outputs
Outputs from PLoS Neglected Tropical Diseases
#5,641
of 11,453 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#155,618
of 536,164 outputs
Outputs of similar age from PLoS Neglected Tropical Diseases
#59
of 135 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 34,386,255 research outputs across all sources so far. This one has received more attention than most of these and is in the 67th percentile.
So far Altmetric has tracked 11,453 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a lot more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 14.0. 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 536,164 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 70% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 135 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 56% of its contemporaries.
