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 randomized clinical trial (RCT) is the most rigorous way of determining cause-and-effect between treatment and outcome, also providing data needed to assess cost-effectiveness. There are fewer RCTs in endodontics than in other areas of clinical dentistry, with many studies having serious methodological limitations. This chapter reviews the key RCTs in endodontics, identifying strengths and limitations, the unique challenges in endodontics, gaps, and recommended future directions. We also discuss the Preferred Reporting Items for RAndomized Trials in Endodontics (PRIRATE) 2020 guidelines.
