We’re delighted to share our 2023 report from Altmetric Explorer, which showcases the top 10 articles from across our journals, as ranked by Altmetric Attention Score. Taken from 1 January to 31 December 2023, our trending articles rank in the top 5% of all research outputs scored and include work on gut barrier integrity, Long Covid, Type 2 diabetes, and more.

Publishing with us enables authors to see first-hand the attention their work is gaining through integrated Altmetric data. Captured in the form of the Altmetric donut, Attention Scores indicate citations on Wikipedia, mainstream media coverage, mentions on social networks, discussions on research blogs, and many other online sources.
