JAMA engagement report
@JAMA_current - 495K followers on X
Measured over 49 original posts from a 30-day window, last computed on August 28, 2026.
Engagement
A typical post picks up 38 interactions against 495K followers, an engagement rate of 0.008%. Measured over 49 original posts, its engagement rate beats 26% of 4,104 tracked accounts of a similar size, which puts it in the middle of its size range rather than at either end. Posts are seen about 12K times each, and 0.324% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 2.37% of the follower count, which is the gap between an audience on paper and an audience in a timeline. Posting runs at about 1.9 posts a day over the last 30 days, though only 37% of days saw any activity at all. Most posts go out around 16:00 UTC, and Tuesday is the busiest day of the week. Of the 49 posts sampled, 65% carry an image or video, 6% are part of a thread and 100% link out. The account's strongest tracked post pulled 823 interactions, about 22x its own typical post. Recurring topics include #dyslipidemia, #ai, #ascvd.

Compared with accounts its own size
JAMA's engagement rate beats 26% of the tracked X accounts closest to it in follower count (4,104 accounts, accounts of similar size (decile 7 of 10)). A percentile is spread evenly by construction, so 50 really is the middle of that group and 90 really is its top tenth.
On engagement per impression rather than per follower it beats 24% of the same group. When those two numbers disagree, the gap is about how far its posts travel rather than how people react to them.
Where this sits in the catalog
At 0.008%, JAMA sits above the 10th percentile of the 39,683 accounts in this comparison. That places it in the bottom 25% band, which runs below 0.013%.

Posting timing
This account posts most often around 16:00 UTC, and Tuesday is its busiest day of the week. The bars below are the catalog-wide pattern, with this account's own busiest slot marked. They do not show how this account performs at each hour: we keep one aggregate per account, not one per hour, so that measurement does not exist in our data.

💬 Perspective: #ArtificialIntelligence may increase efficiency and diagnostic support in medicine, but its value will depend on whether time saved is redirected to face-to-face patient care rather than more screen-based work. https://t.co/wDQf8onNvJ https://t.co/Ojs4w6tYQn

#MedNews: A major push to complement and replace animal testing with “human-based” models like organoids is underway. These tiny organ-like structures grown from human cells are being used to model disease and study human development, identify and screen new therapeutics, test chemical or drug toxicity, and evaluate drug response. And in what some call a “watershed moment,” the biomedical field is pairing these laboratory specimens with increasingly powerful computational tools. Learn more: https://t.co/qIxcrH0q9e

Adding #CoronaryArteryCalcium score to the #PREVENT atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease equations only modestly improved prediction overall in US adults aged 45 to 79 years without baseline #ASCVD. These findings support the selective use of coronary artery calcium scoring, rather than routine use across all risk groups, when refining 10-year risk estimates. https://t.co/gIrubhL4ra

- What is JAMA's engagement rate on X?
- JAMA (@JAMA_current) has an engagement rate of 0.008%, based on the median interactions across 49 original posts from the last 30 days against 494,860 followers. Replies, reposts and quote-posts of other people are excluded from that sample.
- Is that a good engagement rate?
- At 0.008%, JAMA sits above the 10th percentile of the 39,683 accounts in this comparison. Those comparison accounts are all large ones, because our scanning cadence is weighted towards big accounts, so this is a ranking among peers of similar scale rather than a ranking across X.
- Does @JAMA_current have real engagement?
- Its engagement rate beats 26% of the tracked X accounts closest to it in follower count (4,104 accounts), which puts it in the middle of its size range group. Ranking inside a size band matters because engagement rate falls as accounts grow, so a raw rate would mostly re-measure the follower count. It is a starting point for a look at follower quality, not a verdict on it.
- When does @JAMA_current post?
- Most posts go out around 16:00 UTC, and Tuesday is its busiest day, at roughly 1.9 posts per day across the measured window.
