Attention Score in Context

Attention Score in Context

This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 9. 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 22 September 2026.
All research outputs
#4,568,944
of 30,296,742 outputs
Outputs from Proceedings of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers, Part H: Journal of Engineering in Medicine
#32
of 936 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#1,217
of 17,362 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Proceedings of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers, Part H: Journal of Engineering in Medicine
#1
of 4 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 30,296,742 research outputs across all sources so far. Compared to these this one has done well and is in the 83rd percentile: it's in the top 25% of all research outputs ever tracked by Altmetric.
So far Altmetric has tracked 936 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 3.0. This one has done particularly well, scoring higher than 95% 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 17,362 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 87% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 4 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has scored higher than all of them
