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
Laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS) is applied to investigate the effect of alcoholism and doping on elemental composition of fingernails of subjects. Measurements are made on 36 fingernail clippings including 8 doping, 8 alcoholic and 20 normal subjects. Classification of normal, alcoholic and doping subjects based on 46 atomic and ionic emission lines belonging to 13 elements of fingernail is examined using discriminant function analysis (DFA) method. The most affecting elements in classification of groups are discussed. In order to improve the repeatability of LIBS measurements, an auto-focus system has been designed and used in experiments. Results are promising and show that by improving the repeatability of experiments through improving the setup, some evidence of the impact of the alcohol and doping on elemental composition of fingernails is observed. © 2013 Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg.
