Attention Score in Context
Attention Score in Context
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 283. 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 09 June 2026.
All research outputs
#154,568
of 33,087,078 outputs
Outputs from New England Journal of Medicine
#3,404
of 37,757 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#1,431
of 296,583 outputs
Outputs of similar age from New England Journal of Medicine
#34
of 363 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 33,087,078 research outputs across all sources so far. Compared to these this one has done particularly well and is in the 99th percentile: it's in the top 5% of all research outputs ever tracked by Altmetric.
So far Altmetric has tracked 37,757 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a lot more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 119.9. This one has done particularly well, scoring higher than 90% 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 296,583 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 99% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 363 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 90% of its contemporaries.
