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 October 2019.
All research outputs
#3,143,471
of 25,440,205 outputs
Outputs from PLOS ONE
#39,147
of 221,600 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#64,060
of 372,637 outputs
Outputs of similar age from PLOS ONE
#570
of 2,535 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 25,440,205 research outputs across all sources so far. Compared to these this one has done well and is in the 87th percentile: it's in the top 25% of all research outputs ever tracked by Altmetric.
So far Altmetric has tracked 221,600 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a lot more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 15.7. This one has done well, scoring higher than 82% 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 372,637 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 82% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 2,535 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has done well, scoring higher than 77% of its contemporaries.
