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
Endoscopy has an important role in the management of gastrointestinal tract disease in Japan. Mucosal healing is a new goal of the management of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). This has expanded the use of endoscopy. This chapter presents a review of the use of endoscopy for IBD in Japan. Surveillance colonoscopy with target biopsy for long-standing ulcerative colitis (UC) is advocated. A consensus statement has been developed for the diagnosis and management of intestinal Behçet’s disease (BD) in Japan, and adalimumab has been approved to treat BD based on the findings of a Japanese multicenter study. A patency capsule that does not have a radioactive tag has been developed for capsule endoscopy (CE). CE can also be used as an alternative to traditional endoscopy to identify small intestinal lesions in patients with UC. Balloon-assisted endoscopy (BAE) is the gold standard for small intestinal lesions, and is more sensitive than magnetic resonance (MR) imaging for detecting intestinal damage. Endoscopic balloon dilation for the removal of foreign bodies, including retained capsule endoscope, is also important. Endocytoscopy is a developing technology to assess inflammation, and endocytoscopic narrow band imaging is useful for evaluating the severity of UC.
