Abstract

Hydrochlorthiazide (HCTZ) is the tenth most commonly prescribed drug in recent data. Although no head-to-head trials compare HCTZ with the uncommonly prescribed chlorthalidone (CTDN) in reducing cardiovascular events (CVEs), numerous other data are available.

Attention Score in Context

Attention Score in Context

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 01 August 2019.
All research outputs
#3,527,803
of 34,517,289 outputs
Outputs from Current opinion in cardiology
#91
of 1,630 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#25,773
of 241,067 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Current opinion in cardiology
#1
of 16 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 34,517,289 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 1,630 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a little more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 5.9. This one has done particularly well, scoring higher than 94% 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 241,067 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 16 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 93% of its contemporaries.
