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
A 36-year-old female was seen in consultation at the endocrinology clinic for postsurgical hypoparathyroidism after she underwent a total thyroidectomy, 5 years ago, due to compressive symptoms from a nontoxic multi-nodular goiter. The patient has had since then considerable issues with symptomatic hypocalcemia, requiring multiple hospitalizations and emergency department visits. She cannot tolerate serum calcium levels less than 9 mg/dL (normal range, 8.9–10.3 mg/dL). Her symptoms included severe peripheral paresthesia, laryngospasm, severe dyspnea, severe tetany, and sometimes altered mental status. She also had a cardiac event due to severely symptomatic hypocalcemia. The management has been challenging given recurrent hyperphosphatemia (due to treatment with calcitriol), with calcium and phosphorus product reaching 120, with persistent symptomatic hypocalcemia.
