This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 4. 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 March 2026.
All research outputs
#10,566,992
of 32,426,236 outputs
Outputs from BioScience
#1,806
of 3,064 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#105,234
of 336,636 outputs
Outputs of similar age from BioScience
#29
of 35 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 32,426,236 research outputs across all sources so far. This one has received more attention than most of these and is in the 67th percentile.
So far Altmetric has tracked 3,064 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a lot more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 40.9. This one is in the 40th percentile – i.e., 40% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.
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 336,636 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 68% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 35 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 17th percentile – i.e., 17% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
