This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 13. 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 21 May 2026.
All research outputs
#3,464,720
of 32,779,020 outputs
Outputs from PLOS ONE
#36,751
of 218,153 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#50,608
of 431,531 outputs
Outputs of similar age from PLOS ONE
#251
of 1,734 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 32,779,020 research outputs across all sources so far. Compared to these this one has done well and is in the 89th percentile: it's in the top 25% of all research outputs ever tracked by Altmetric.
So far Altmetric has tracked 218,153 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a lot more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 17.1. 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 431,531 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 1,734 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has done well, scoring higher than 85% of its contemporaries.
