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 03 February 2026.
All research outputs
#112,010
of 34,421,733 outputs
Outputs from Nature Medicine
#647
of 11,574 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#3,042
of 454,711 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Nature Medicine
#19
of 114 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 34,421,733 research outputs across all sources so far. Compared to these this one has done particularly well and is in the 99th percentile: it's in the top 5% of all research outputs ever tracked by Altmetric.
So far Altmetric has tracked 11,574 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a lot more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 110.5. This one has done particularly well, scoring higher than 94% 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 454,711 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 114 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has done well, scoring higher than 83% of its contemporaries.
