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
In anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction surgery the graft is often secured to the tibial and femoral bone tunnels using interference screws. Surface modification of such interference screws may be used to help promote graft-bone integration and reduce the risk of infection. This could allow faster post-surgical rehabilitation, earlier return to sports, and improved long term clinical outcomes. This chapter reviews surface modification techniques that have already been tried in anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction interference screws, but also reviews surface modification techniques that have been applied to other orthopaedic implants and which could potentially be extrapolated to cruciate ligament reconstruction surgery.
