Abstract
The altmetric Attention Score scale quantifies the attention that publications receive on various social media. Some studies have been conducted on the correlation between AAS and citations of articles in other disciplines but orthopedics. This study aimed to compare AAS with citation numbers on the top 50 articles regarding citation numbers. For this study the Scopus database was searched for the most 50 cited manuscripts on orthopedics from January 2015 to December 2020. Subsequently, altimetric attention score (AAS) and the number of Tweeters, Dimensions, etc, were retrieved for each article through "Bookmarklet for Researchers" at Altmetric.com. Results show a statistically low and non-significant relationship was indicated between the citation number and the AAS and also shown the linear relationship between the mention on Twitter and the altmetric attention score. Most of previous articles represented that there is a weak to moderate relationship between the citation number and the AAS that is similar to our findings. There is a low but significant correlation exists between the AAS and the number of citations. In addition, the AAS is directly and linearly linked to the number of mentions on Twitter.
