This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 23. 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 21 August 2025.
All research outputs
#1,995,702
of 32,060,042 outputs
Outputs from Nature Genetics
#2,788
of 8,485 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#7,750
of 229,363 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Nature Genetics
#20
of 64 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 32,060,042 research outputs across all sources so far. Compared to these this one has done particularly well and is in the 93rd percentile: it's in the top 10% of all research outputs ever tracked by Altmetric.
So far Altmetric has tracked 8,485 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a lot more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 44.3. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 67% 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 229,363 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 96% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 64 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 68% of its contemporaries.
