of 34,363,559 outputs
Outputs from British Medical Journal
#29,908
of 75,521 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#54,978
of 409,094 outputs
Outputs of similar age from British Medical Journal
#707
of 936 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 34,363,559 research outputs across all sources so far. Compared to these this one has done well and is in the 85th percentile: it's in the top 25% of all research outputs ever tracked by Altmetric.
So far Altmetric has tracked 75,521 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a lot more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 40.5. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 59% 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 409,094 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one has done well, scoring higher than 86% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 936 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 22nd percentile – i.e., 22% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
