Abstract

Obesity is fast becoming a major disorder for mankind. Numerous lifestyle factors play a role in the rising obesity epidemic, including changes in the diet and the lack of physical activity. Unfortunately, more than two-thirds of the adult population in developed countries is considered overweight and more than a third of them are obese. In addition to the well-publicized association of obesity with type II diabetes and cardiovascular diseases, emerging evidence indicates that obesity represents a major risk factor for fatty liver diseases and fatty liver disease-associated hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC).

Attention Score in Context

Attention Score in Context

This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 2. 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 01 July 2018.
All research outputs
#15,011,732
of 23,092,602 outputs
Outputs from Advances in experimental medicine and biology
#2,285
of 4,976 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#256,086
of 442,643 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Advances in experimental medicine and biology
#92
of 237 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 23,092,602 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 32nd percentile – i.e., 32% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 4,976 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a little more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 6.2. This one is in the 49th percentile – i.e., 49% 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 442,643 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 39th percentile – i.e., 39% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 237 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 54% of its contemporaries.
