Attention Score in Context

Attention Score in Context

This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 125. 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 09 August 2025.
All research outputs
#427,898
of 34,767,876 outputs
Outputs from Nature Communications
#6,423
of 83,868 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#9,797
of 456,713 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Nature Communications
#175
of 1,574 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 34,767,876 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 83,868 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a lot more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 49.3. This one has done particularly well, scoring higher than 92% 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 456,713 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 1,574 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has done well, scoring higher than 88% of its contemporaries.
