| Abstract |
The obstetrical literature is dominated by Randomised Controlled Trials (RCTs), with the vast majority being analysed using an intention-to-treat (ITT) approach. Whilst this approach may reflect well the consequence of assignment to therapy and hence the 'trialists'perspective', it may fail to address the consequence of actually receiving therapy (the patient's perspective). |

Attention Score in Context
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 4. 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 31 August 2013.
All research outputs
#6,758,411
of 22,693,205 outputs
Outputs from BMC Pregnancy and Childbirth
#1,864
of 4,155 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#75,380
of 284,627 outputs
Outputs of similar age from BMC Pregnancy and Childbirth
#46
of 84 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 22,693,205 research outputs across all sources so far. This one has received more attention than most of these and is in the 69th percentile.
So far Altmetric has tracked 4,155 research outputs from this source. They typically receive more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 8.8. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 54% 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 284,627 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 73% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 84 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 42nd percentile – i.e., 42% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
