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
Over the last decade, survival in patients with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) has lengthened dramatically due to improvements in the robust options for antiretroviral therapy (ART) [1]. Clinicians caring for HIV-positive patients now face many of the same challenges encountered by those with other chronic conditions (e.g., cardiovascular disease, complications from diabetes, aging) [2]. One particular issue that plagues all clinicians caring for patients with chronic diseases is how to promote optimal adherence to prescribed treatment over time. Adherence to treatment for HIV has some unique features that make its assessment and measurement challenging. In this chapter, we will review the ways in which this disease differs from and is similar to other chronic diseases. Lastly, we will identify methods and techniques that clinicians may use to enhance adherence among individuals with HIV. Of note, we will be specifically focusing on issues pertaining to the treatment of HIV in the USA. © 2010 Springer Science+Business Media, LLC.
