Metric Options: CountsSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Book Chapter Description
In retrospect, it is interesting to realize the way technology and new developments are sometimes so obvious and simple. Looking back over the history of laser surgery, laser tissue ablation (removal) was developed over 40 years. It became popular in the 1980s and 1990s especially because of skin resurfacing, but faded at the end of 1990s due to side effects, and almost vanished from most clinical practices. In 2004, with the introduction of new fractionated methods of skin resurfacing, the same old lasers developed decades ago became popular again, by delivering their beams in microscopic patterns. The technology to make arrays of microscopic laser beams has been available for 40 years, but not used this way in dermatology. The limiting factor is not the technology, but the way we look at it.
