| Abstract |
Resistant Gram-negative bacteria are a growing concern in the United States, leading to significant morbidity and mortality. We identified a 72-year-old female patient who presented with unilateral vision loss. She was found to have a large corneal ulcer with hypopyon. Culture of corneal scrapings grew extensively drug-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Treatment involved a combination of systemic and topical antibiotics. Whole genome sequencing revealed the presence of blaVIM-80, blaGES-9, and other resistance determinants. This distinctive organism was linked to an over-the-counter artificial tears product. |

Attention Score in Context
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 253. 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 24 May 2023.
All research outputs
#140,792
of 24,843,842 outputs
Outputs from Antimicrobial Agents and Chemotherapy
#42
of 15,439 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#3,473
of 384,916 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Antimicrobial Agents and Chemotherapy
#2
of 78 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 24,843,842 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 15,439 research outputs from this source. They typically receive more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 8.2. This one has done particularly well, scoring higher than 99% 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 384,916 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 78 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has done particularly well, scoring higher than 98% of its contemporaries.
