Attention Score in Context

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 02 November 2023.
All research outputs
#19,160,326
of 24,393,999 outputs
Outputs from Tropical Diseases, Travel Medicine and Vaccines
#112
of 143 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#290,567
of 403,379 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Tropical Diseases, Travel Medicine and Vaccines
#3
of 3 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 24,393,999 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 18th percentile – i.e., 18% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 143 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a lot more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 17.5. This one is in the 19th percentile – i.e., 19% 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 403,379 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 24th percentile – i.e., 24% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 3 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one.
