Attention Score in Context
Attention Score in Context
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 137. 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 16 February 2026.
All research outputs
#385,602
of 34,609,551 outputs
Outputs from Clinical Infectious Diseases
#716
of 21,617 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#9,198
of 455,391 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Clinical Infectious Diseases
#51
of 499 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 34,609,551 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 21,617 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a lot more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 29.7. This one has done particularly well, scoring higher than 96% 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 455,391 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 97% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 499 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has done well, scoring higher than 89% of its contemporaries.
