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
The cardiovascular complications of Marfan syndrome require lifelong monitoring, even after surgical intervention. Echocardiography plays a crucial role in the diagnosis and evaluation of cardiovascular features, follow up and further decision regarding management in patients with Marfan syndrome. Echocardiography is used worldwide, the most widely available and cost effective non invasive technique for evaluating cardiac structures and the proximal aorta. The technique uses ultrasound and is therefore completely safe. A full study takes 30 min. Moreover, machines are now available the size of a smart phone, making this technique attractive for scanning patients repeatedly.
