A higher predicted total lung capacity (pTLC)-ratio (=pTLC donor/pTLC recipient), suggestive of oversized allografts, is associated with improved survival after lung transplantation. It is unknown whether the pTLC-ratio has a different association with survival in bilateral (BLT) versus single lung transplantation (SLT).
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 49. 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 02 August 2013.
All research outputs
#848,047
of 25,374,647 outputs
Outputs from The Annals of Thoracic Surgery
#127
of 8,320 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#6,718
of 208,807 outputs
Outputs of similar age from The Annals of Thoracic Surgery
#1
of 73 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 25,374,647 research outputs across all sources so far. Compared to these this one has done particularly well and is in the 96th percentile: it's in the top 5% of all research outputs ever tracked by Altmetric.
So far Altmetric has tracked 8,320 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a little more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 6.4. This one has done particularly well, scoring higher than 98% 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 208,807 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 96% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 73 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 98% of its contemporaries.
