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 15 September 2023.
All research outputs
#19,207,873
of 24,457,056 outputs
Outputs from BMC Complementary Medicine and Therapies
#2,418
of 3,837 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#252,907
of 348,524 outputs
Outputs of similar age from BMC Complementary Medicine and Therapies
#42
of 60 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 24,457,056 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 3,837 research outputs from this source. They typically receive more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 9.1. This one is in the 32nd percentile – i.e., 32% 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 348,524 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 22nd percentile – i.e., 22% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 60 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 26th percentile – i.e., 26% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
