Exposure network analysis and molecular epidemiologic methods were used to analyze the emergence and regional spread of Klebsiella pneumoniae carbapenemase-producing Enterobacteriaceae over a 1-year period. Although 40 patients and 26 health care facilities were affected, 1 long-term acute care hospital played a critical role in the convergence of patients at high risk, amplification by cross-infection, and dissemination of these multidrug-resistant bacteria.
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 37. 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 11 November 2025.
All research outputs
#1,400,420
of 34,492,055 outputs
Outputs from Clinical Infectious Diseases
#2,509
of 21,572 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#5,319
of 172,404 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Clinical Infectious Diseases
#9
of 119 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 34,492,055 research outputs across all sources so far. Compared to these this one has done particularly well and is in the 95th percentile: it's in the top 5% of all research outputs ever tracked by Altmetric.
So far Altmetric has tracked 21,572 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a lot more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 29.7. This one has done well, scoring higher than 88% 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 172,404 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 119 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has done particularly well, scoring higher than 92% of its contemporaries.
