Sirolimus (SIR) has been shown to stabilize the lung function in lung transplant recipients with bronchiolitis obliterans syndrome (BOS). However, there is no long-term data on the prophylactic use of SIR in lung transplant recipients. This retrospective study examines the effects of SIR in the prevention of BOS.

Attention Score in Context
Attention Score in Context
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 3. 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 October 2015.
All research outputs
#8,535,472
of 25,374,647 outputs
Outputs from The Annals of Thoracic Surgery
#2,620
of 8,320 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#75,831
of 222,693 outputs
Outputs of similar age from The Annals of Thoracic Surgery
#26
of 65 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 25,374,647 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 43rd percentile – i.e., 43% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
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 is in the 37th percentile – i.e., 37% 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 222,693 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 49th percentile – i.e., 49% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 65 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.
