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
Congenital heart disease with an approximate incidence of 1 % and a prevalence at birth of 5–11 per 1,000 live births (Hoffman and Kaplan, J Am Coll Cardiol 39(12):1890–900, 2002) is the most common inborn defect. By definition, “congenital” heart disease means usually a disease that has been present since birth. However, a wide variety of defects can be either not present or not evident from birth. Those present but not usually detected in early life include lesions such as a moderate size atrial septal defect. Others that are only anatomically present in later years with a latent predisposition prior to this, such as subaortic stenosis or many of the cardiomyopathies, are not strictly “congenital” but are often included in this group. The most important physiopathologic aspects of the congenital cardiac malformations are the presence of shunt between arterial and venous blood and presence or absence of cyanosis. Although congenital cardiac malformations may be classified in various ways, we propose a simplified classification in four subgroups of malformations: septal defects, defects of the outflow tracts and great vessels, univentricular hearts, and other malformations.
