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 25 April 2023.
All research outputs
#2,014,960
of 29,660,600 outputs
Outputs from PLOS ONE
#22,901
of 255,289 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#35,834
of 363,277 outputs
Outputs of similar age from PLOS ONE
#337
of 2,536 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 29,660,600 research outputs across all sources so far. Compared to these this one has done particularly well and is in the 93rd percentile: it's in the top 10% of all research outputs ever tracked by Altmetric.
So far Altmetric has tracked 255,289 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a lot more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 15.8. This one has done particularly well, scoring higher than 91% 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 363,277 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 2,536 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has done well, scoring higher than 86% of its contemporaries.
