Abstract |
Our field is "bariatric" surgery. Bari means weight or pressure in ancient and modern Greek. However, bari denotes obese in biblical Hebrew and healthy in modern Hebrew. The Greek language and the Hebrew language (spoken by many ancient Northwest Semitic peoples) come from different language roots. We surveyed interactions between the two languages, to determine historically how bari could have become a "loanword". Ample mingling of the peoples was found. |

Attention Score in Context
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 8. 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 01 August 2015.
All research outputs
#3,851,993
of 22,651,245 outputs
Outputs from Obesity Surgery
#461
of 3,356 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#8,622
of 57,177 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Obesity Surgery
#3
of 13 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 22,651,245 research outputs across all sources so far. Compared to these this one has done well and is in the 82nd percentile: it's in the top 25% of all research outputs ever tracked by Altmetric.
So far Altmetric has tracked 3,356 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a little more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 5.4. This one has done well, scoring higher than 85% 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 57,177 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 84% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 13 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has done well, scoring higher than 76% of its contemporaries.
