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.

Article Description
Background: An increasing number of patients undergo genioplasty for esthetic purposes to correct micrognathism or retrognathism. However, these conditions are considered an important risk factor for snoring. The purpose of this study was to evaluate both esthetic improvement and functional changes of snoring symptoms in patients who underwent hat-shaped mortised advancing genioplasty with genioglossus muscle advancement. Materials and Methods: This retrospective study enrolled 25 patients. We evaluated scores for subjective snoring classification (Stanford scale) and questionnaire findings for esthetic results. Results: Most people (96%) were satisfied with the esthetic improvement after surgery. The grade of subjective snoring classification (Stanford scale) improved from 8.68 (range 0–10) to 4.08 (range 0–10) after surgery. Twenty-four patients had an improved snoring grade. All patients reported a positive impact on their daily activity and self-confidence, and they were willing to recommend the same operation to someone with the same clinical problems. Conclusion: We conclude that hat-shaped mortised advancing genioplasty with genioglossus muscle advancement can relieve the symptoms of snoring for patients with hypoplastic chin or retrogenia. Patients were satisfied with the functional and esthetic results. Level of Evidence IV: This journal requires that authors assign a level of evidence to each article.
