This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 15. 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 04 September 2026.
All research outputs
#3,255,846
of 34,289,063 outputs
Outputs from Biology Letters
#1,783
of 3,952 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#43,550
of 387,750 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Biology Letters
#22
of 46 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 34,289,063 research outputs across all sources so far. Compared to these this one has done particularly well and is in the 90th percentile: it's in the top 10% of all research outputs ever tracked by Altmetric.
So far Altmetric has tracked 3,952 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a lot more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 61.2. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 54% 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 387,750 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 88% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 46 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 52% of its contemporaries.
