of 27,663,348 outputs
Outputs from BMC Medicine
#3,704
of 4,510 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#81,150
of 193,197 outputs
Outputs of similar age from BMC Medicine
#41
of 74 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 27,663,348 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 33rd percentile – i.e., 33% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 4,510 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a lot more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 45.0. This one is in the 15th percentile – i.e., 15% 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 193,197 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 54% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 74 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 41st percentile – i.e., 41% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
