We’ve added some cool new metrics to total-impact:

• number of citations by papers in PMC, 
• number of citations by review papers in PMC, 
• number of citations by editorials in PMC, 
• the number of student readers in Mendeley (roughly, based on top-three reported job descriptions) 
• the number of Mendeley readers from developing countries (again, roughly)
• a “F1000 Yes” note if an article has been reviewed by F1000

See them in action in our sample collection.

These are exciting metrics for two reasons: they aren’t easily available elsewhere in this format, and we think they’ll be powerful signals about the impact flavor of research.

Thanks to PMC and Mendeley for making their data and filters available via an Open API: this sort of innovation isn’t otherwise possible.

If you have a current collection on total-impact and want to see these metrics, hit the “update” button.  New collections will all include these metrics.  Enjoy!
