Attention Score in Context

Attention Score in Context

This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 56. 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 23 September 2025.
All research outputs
#936,415
of 33,079,649 outputs
Outputs from Nature Communications
#15,807
of 80,385 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#10,297
of 399,766 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Nature Communications
#119
of 703 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 33,079,649 research outputs across all sources so far. Compared to these this one has done particularly well and is in the 97th percentile: it's in the top 5% of all research outputs ever tracked by Altmetric.
So far Altmetric has tracked 80,385 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a lot more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 49.5. This one has done well, scoring higher than 80% 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 399,766 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 703 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has done well, scoring higher than 83% of its contemporaries.
