This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 5. 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 10 May 2025.
All research outputs
#9,592,269
of 31,747,145 outputs
Outputs from The Lancet
#28,970
of 49,774 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#113,659
of 344,634 outputs
Outputs of similar age from The Lancet
#297
of 408 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 31,747,145 research outputs across all sources so far. This one has received more attention than most of these and is in the 69th percentile.
So far Altmetric has tracked 49,774 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a lot more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 64.2. This one is in the 41st percentile – i.e., 41% 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 344,634 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 66% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 408 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 27th percentile – i.e., 27% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
