Metric Options: Counts1 Year3 YearSelecting 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.

Article Description
PURPOSE: Black patients with colon cancer are more likely to have poorer survival from colon cancer than are white patients. To determine whether anatomic site differences might contribute to survival differences, we compared anatomic site distributions of black and white patients. METHODS: As part of the Black/White Cancer Survival Study, we collected medical record data for 1,045 patients from Atlanta, New Orleans, and San Francisco/Oakland, newly diagnosed in 1985 or 1986 and interviewed 745 of them. RESULTS: In polychotomous logistic regression analysis, site was related to stage, grade, and histologic type and among women with age, parity, and possibly smoking. However, it was not related to race, except perhaps among men age 65 and older, among whom blacks were somewhat likely to have more transverse and distal, not proximal, cancer. These relations were consistent across subgroups and were independent of other factors examined. CONCLUSION: Results suggest that site differences are unlikely to contribute to poorer survival commonly observed among black colon cancer patients in the United States. © 1995 American Society of Colon and Rectal Surgeons.
