Attention Score in Context
Attention Score in Context
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 106. 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 12 August 2026.
All research outputs
#505,456
of 34,492,055 outputs
Outputs from New England Journal of Medicine
#6,913
of 38,491 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#2,023
of 203,591 outputs
Outputs of similar age from New England Journal of Medicine
#46
of 289 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 34,492,055 research outputs across all sources so far. Compared to these this one has done particularly well and is in the 98th percentile: it's in the top 5% of all research outputs ever tracked by Altmetric.
So far Altmetric has tracked 38,491 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a lot more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 120.2. This one has done well, scoring higher than 82% 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 203,591 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 99% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 289 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has done well, scoring higher than 84% of its contemporaries.
