Title	Vitamin K prior to preterm birth for preventing neonatal periventricular haemorrhage
Published in	Cochrane database of systematic reviews, January 2010
DOI	10.1002/14651858.cd000229.pub2
Pubmed ID	20091505
Authors	Caroline A Crowther, Danielle D Crosby
Abstract	Preterm infants are at risk of periventricular haemorrhage. This can be a sign of brain damage that might lead to neurodevelopmental abnormalities, including cerebral palsy. It has been suggested that vitamin K might improve coagulation in preterm infants and thereby decrease the risk of periventricular haemorrhage.

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 14 July 2012.

All research outputs

#20,166,700

of 22,678,224 outputs

Outputs from Cochrane database of systematic reviews

#11,979

of 12,298 outputs

Outputs of similar age

#156,681

of 163,760 outputs

Outputs of similar age from Cochrane database of systematic reviews

#107

of 112 outputs

Altmetric has tracked 22,678,224 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.

So far Altmetric has tracked 12,298 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a lot more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 30.3. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% 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 163,760 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.

We're also able to compare this research output to 112 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
