#2,938,351
of 34,161,505 outputs
Outputs from New England Journal of Medicine
#17,868
of 38,256 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#40,629
of 378,193 outputs
Outputs of similar age from New England Journal of Medicine
#182
of 243 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 34,161,505 research outputs across all sources so far. Compared to these this one has done particularly well and is in the 91st percentile: it's in the top 10% of all research outputs ever tracked by Altmetric.
So far Altmetric has tracked 38,256 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a lot more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 119.3. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 53% 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 378,193 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 89% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 243 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 24th percentile – i.e., 24% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
