Attention Score in Context

This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 5. 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 02 March 2023.
All research outputs
#6,089,280
of 23,467,261 outputs
Outputs from Cochrane database of systematic reviews
#7,984
of 12,702 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#20,226
of 68,008 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Cochrane database of systematic reviews
#35
of 72 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 23,467,261 research outputs across all sources so far. This one has received more attention than most of these and is in the 73rd percentile.
So far Altmetric has tracked 12,702 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a lot more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 33.0. This one is in the 36th percentile – i.e., 36% 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 68,008 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 69% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 72 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 50% of its contemporaries.
