All research outputs
#10,012,073
of 29,418,433 outputs
Outputs from BMC Biology
#1,669
of 2,562 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#181,097
of 450,467 outputs
Outputs of similar age from BMC Biology
#44
of 68 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 29,418,433 research outputs across all sources so far. This one has received more attention than most of these and is in the 65th percentile.
So far Altmetric has tracked 2,562 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a lot more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 20.9. This one is in the 34th percentile – i.e., 34% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.
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 450,467 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 59% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 68 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 35th percentile – i.e., 35% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
