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 23 December 2015.

All research outputs

#7,550,194

of 23,033,713 outputs

Outputs from Critical Care

#3,986

of 6,091 outputs

Outputs of similar age

#24,531

of 70,935 outputs

Outputs of similar age from Critical Care

of 7 outputs

Altmetric has tracked 23,033,713 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 44th percentile – i.e., 44% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.

So far Altmetric has tracked 6,091 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a lot more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 19.4. This one is in the 29th percentile – i.e., 29% 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 70,935 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 13th percentile – i.e., 13% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.

We're also able to compare this research output to 7 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has scored higher than 5 of them.
