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 March 2021.
All research outputs
#10,436,839
of 33,940,276 outputs
Outputs from Infection control and hospital epidemiology (Online)
#3,257
of 6,137 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#112,998
of 409,975 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Infection control and hospital epidemiology (Online)
#1,141
of 2,015 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 33,940,276 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 6,137 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a lot more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 14.3. This one is in the 45th percentile – i.e., 45% 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 409,975 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 71% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 2,015 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 42nd percentile – i.e., 42% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
