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
Electricity is a ubiquitous, indispensable, and invisible part of modern civilization. We often take it for granted until a natural disaster renders it and us nearly useless. Another instance when an individual is reminded of its presence unfortunately and all too commonly is the severe electrical burn injury. Electrical burns are the most devastating of all thermal injuries on a size by size basis. They affect primarily young, working males, and often lead to legal entanglements. They are the most frequent cause of amputation on the burn service [1]. Cutaneous manifestations of high voltage electrical injuries have been equated to the tip of the iceberg. Index of suspicion must be high, as deep tissue injury is often hidden yet common. Long term morbidity and disability is often the end result of these injuries and this has led to the recommendation for their evaluation and treatment in qualified burn centers.
