Attention Score in Context

This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 3. 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 03 May 2021.
All research outputs
#13,747,168
of 24,024,220 outputs
Outputs from Antimicrobial Resistance & Infection Control
#798
of 1,348 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#192,978
of 429,120 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Antimicrobial Resistance & Infection Control
#22
of 37 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 24,024,220 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 42nd percentile – i.e., 42% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 1,348 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a lot more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 15.6. This one is in the 38th percentile – i.e., 38% 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 429,120 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 54% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 37 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 43rd percentile – i.e., 43% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
