Attention Score in Context
Attention Score in Context
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 6. 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 11 February 2025.
All research outputs
#7,432,872
of 34,054,827 outputs
Outputs from New England Journal of Medicine
#23,946
of 38,207 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#8,240
of 39,564 outputs
Outputs of similar age from New England Journal of Medicine
#81
of 153 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 34,054,827 research outputs across all sources so far. This one has received more attention than most of these and is in the 73rd percentile.
So far Altmetric has tracked 38,207 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a lot more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 119.1. This one is in the 32nd percentile – i.e., 32% 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 39,564 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 63% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 153 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 37th percentile – i.e., 37% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
