| Abstract |
ABSTRACT: Hu and coworkers in the previous issue of Critical Care provide evidence for the clinical relevance of proteinuria in the outcome of burn patients. Proteinuria is a common finding after severe burns, appears within a short period and is detectable for several weeks. Proteinuria ranging from 0.5 to 3 to 4 g/day is initially of mixed type, then, after a week, gradually changes to tubular proteinuria. The clinical role of proteinuria is still unclear, mainly due to a lack of data on its pathogenesis. Recent studies have demonstrated an association between proteinuria and incidence of inhalation injury, sepsis, acute kidney injury and mortality rate. Proteinuria is considered the mirror of increased systemic capillary permeability, and possibly a direct marker of glomerular and tubular injury. Circulating plasma inflammatory mediators and pro-apoptotic factors reflecting burn injury, sepsis and acute kidney injury can affect the viability and function of tubular cells and podocytes. These studies highlight that proteinuria in burn patients should receive due consideration. |

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 05 December 2012.
All research outputs
#17,285,036
of 25,371,288 outputs
Outputs from Critical Care
#5,467
of 6,554 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#191,659
of 286,250 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Critical Care
#81
of 117 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 25,371,288 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 21st percentile – i.e., 21% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 6,554 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a lot more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 20.8. This one is in the 10th percentile – i.e., 10% 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 286,250 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 23rd percentile – i.e., 23% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 117 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 21st percentile – i.e., 21% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
