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
Improving the medical outcomes for pneumonia, traumatic injuries, and diarrheal diseases extends beyond the overall health of affected individuals. The health of a country is innately tied to the corresponding wealth of that country, in which healthy individuals foster increased productivity and economic gains on both local-level and macro-level scales. In acknowledging this, there are additional steps that Nigeria can consider in the area of biomaterials science that may lead to greater health and economic sustainability. The primary concern is the health of future generations in combating conditions and morbidities that afflict the youth population and human capital development and minimizing the risks associated with increased economies of scale related to the future development of bio-economies. Biomaterials have the potential to foster advancements on multiple fronts but require an integrative approach to making sure that future initiatives are both sustainable in nature as well as help those that are in need of these interventions the most.
