of 34,517,289 outputs
Outputs from New England Journal of Medicine
#8,368
of 38,545 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#7,218
of 360,402 outputs
Outputs of similar age from New England Journal of Medicine
#86
of 278 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 34,517,289 research outputs across all sources so far. Compared to these this one has done particularly well and is in the 97th percentile: it's in the top 5% of all research outputs ever tracked by Altmetric.
So far Altmetric has tracked 38,545 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a lot more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 120.0. This one has done well, scoring higher than 78% 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 360,402 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 97% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 278 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 69% of its contemporaries.
