Abstract |
Leptospirosis is a bacterial zoonotic disease with worldwide distribution. We describe and discuss the clinical course of a leptospirosis outbreak in a running club called the hash house harriers on Guam. Leptospirosis is a potentialy life threatening disease, and has had a reemergence given the popularity of travel adventure sports, teams, and clubs around the world. This case presentation highlights the robust prescence of leptospirosis on Guam. |

Attention Score in Context
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 1. 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 25 November 2017.
All research outputs
#20,836,544
of 25,602,335 outputs
Outputs from Tropical Diseases, Travel Medicine and Vaccines
#128
of 158 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#264,065
of 340,366 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Tropical Diseases, Travel Medicine and Vaccines
#1
of 1 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 25,602,335 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 10th percentile – i.e., 10% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 158 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a lot more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 16.7. This one is in the 6th percentile – i.e., 6% 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 340,366 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 12th percentile – i.e., 12% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 1 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has scored higher than all of them
