Survey of diagnostic testing for respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) in adults: Infectious disease physician practices and implications for burden estimates
Published in
Diagnostic Microbiology & Infectious Disease, December 2017
Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) often causes respiratory illness in adults. Over 40 RSV vaccine and monoclonal antibody products are currently in preclinical development or clinical trials. Because RSV diagnostic practices may impact disease burden estimates, we investigated infectious disease physicians' RSV diagnostic practices among their adult patients.

Attention Score in Context
Attention Score in Context
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 16. 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 02 March 2022.
All research outputs
#2,856,858
of 34,376,207 outputs
Outputs from Diagnostic Microbiology & Infectious Disease
#92
of 3,288 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#48,279
of 493,929 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Diagnostic Microbiology & Infectious Disease
#3
of 57 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 34,376,207 research outputs across all sources so far. Compared to these this one has done particularly well and is in the 91st percentile: it's in the top 10% of all research outputs ever tracked by Altmetric.
So far Altmetric has tracked 3,288 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 4.6. This one has done particularly well, scoring higher than 97% 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 493,929 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 90% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 57 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 94% of its contemporaries.
