Attention Score in Context
Attention Score in Context
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 121. 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 05 July 2026.
All research outputs
#432,195
of 33,732,945 outputs
Outputs from New England Journal of Medicine
#6,325
of 37,911 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#1,693
of 205,850 outputs
Outputs of similar age from New England Journal of Medicine
#39
of 295 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 33,732,945 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 37,911 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a lot more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 119.8. This one has done well, scoring higher than 83% 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 205,850 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 295 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.
