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 17 June 2012.
All research outputs
#12,356,702
of 34,400,738 outputs
Outputs from Journal of Infectious Diseases
#11,114
of 18,989 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#67,337
of 212,500 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Journal of Infectious Diseases
#72
of 112 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 34,400,738 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 38th percentile – i.e., 38% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 18,989 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a lot more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 17.0. This one is in the 16th percentile – i.e., 16% 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 212,500 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 12th percentile – i.e., 12% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 112 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 5th percentile – i.e., 5% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
