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 obesity epidemic is responsible for shifts in the relative frequency of elective and emergent upper gastrointestinal operations. The availability and safety of the laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy have led to its rise in standing above the gastric bypass as the most common upper gastrointestinal operation. The recognition of Helicobacter pylori and its eradication have contributed to a steady decline of elective operations for refractory peptic ulcer disease and gastric cancer, yet emergency operation for control of upper GI bleeding and perforation is still common. Increasing longevity of the population has contributed to a steady increase in paraesophageal hernia repair in both the elective and emergent settings. Additionally, pancreatic cancer and esophageal cancer are on the rise. This chapter will review common gastrointestinal operations.
