Protein losing enteropathy (PLE) is a severe consequence of Fontan physiology that sometimes requires heart transplantation for definitive treatment. We describe transplant refractory PLE in a patient with heterotaxia and complex systemic and hepatic venous connections, successfully treated by transcatheter relief of multiple venous obstructions.
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 1. 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 18 June 2018.
All research outputs
#19,158,699
of 27,786,078 outputs
Outputs from World Journal for Pediatric and Congenital Heart Surgery
#409
of 896 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#209,046
of 323,284 outputs
Outputs of similar age from World Journal for Pediatric and Congenital Heart Surgery
#6
of 21 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 27,786,078 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 21st percentile – i.e., 21% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 896 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 3.1. This one is in the 36th percentile – i.e., 36% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.
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 323,284 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 27th percentile – i.e., 27% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 21 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 47th percentile – i.e., 47% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
