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 08 July 2018.
All research outputs
#6,885,735
of 25,302,890 outputs
Outputs from Reproductive Health
#800
of 1,561 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#69,831

Outputs of similar age from Reproductive Health
#6
of 13 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 25,302,890 research outputs across all sources so far. This one has received more attention than most of these and is in the 72nd percentile.
So far Altmetric has tracked 1,561 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a lot more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 12.9. This one is in the 48th percentile – i.e., 48% 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 295,773 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one has done well, scoring higher than 76% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 13 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 61% of its contemporaries.
