This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 18. 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 10 October 2026.
All research outputs
#2,316,264
of 28,731,329 outputs
Outputs from PLOS ONE
#26,624
of 248,890 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#54,109
of 436,068 outputs
Outputs of similar age from PLOS ONE
#479
of 2,909 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 28,731,329 research outputs across all sources so far. Compared to these this one has done particularly well and is in the 91st percentile: it's in the top 10% of all research outputs ever tracked by Altmetric.
So far Altmetric has tracked 248,890 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 well, scoring higher than 89% 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 436,068 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one has done well, scoring higher than 87% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 2,909 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.
