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 30 July 2026.
All research outputs
#211,237
of 34,652,893 outputs
Outputs from Nature
#11,532
of 118,176 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#1,070
of 229,742 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Nature
#94
of 1,011 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 34,652,893 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 118,176 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a lot more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 95.9. This one has done particularly well, scoring higher than 90% 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 229,742 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 1,011 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 90% of its contemporaries.
