A 76-year-old man with a history of transitional-cell carcinoma of the bladder presented with persistent fever, leukopenia, and pulmonary infiltrates. Examination of a lung-biopsy specimen revealed noncaseating granulomatous inflammation. A diagnostic test was performed.
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 17. 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 27 August 2023.
All research outputs
#2,846,910
of 34,363,559 outputs
Outputs from New England Journal of Medicine
#17,669
of 38,370 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#36,241
of 441,220 outputs
Outputs of similar age from New England Journal of Medicine
#204
of 353 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 34,363,559 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 38,370 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a lot more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 120.1. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 53% 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 441,220 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 91% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 353 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 42nd percentile – i.e., 42% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
