Attention Score in Context

Attention Score in Context

This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 2. 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 17 May 2022.
All research outputs
#14,492,558
of 23,312,088 outputs
Outputs from Frontiers in Genetics
#3,992
of 12,331 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#212,141
of 442,122 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Frontiers in Genetics
#202
of 904 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 23,312,088 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 37th percentile – i.e., 37% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 12,331 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 3.7. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 67% 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 442,122 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 51% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 904 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.
