Penetrating keratoplasty and epikeratoplasty have been utilized in the surgical treatment of keratoconus. Comparison of the relative efficacy of each procedure in achieving visual outcomes has not been achieved due to limited numbers of cases and follow-up in previous series.
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 7. 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 17 March 2021.
All research outputs
#7,488,822
of 34,518,147 outputs
Outputs from Journal of Refractive Surgery
#248
of 1,464 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#14,385
of 61,538 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Journal of Refractive Surgery
#1
of 4 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 34,518,147 research outputs across all sources so far. Compared to these this one has done well and is in the 78th percentile: it's in the top 25% of all research outputs ever tracked by Altmetric.
So far Altmetric has tracked 1,464 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 4.5. This one has done well, scoring higher than 82% 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 61,538 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one has done well, scoring higher than 76% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 4 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has scored higher than all of them
