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: The anticarcinogenic potential of green tea and coffee might be expected to reduce the risk of thyroid cancer, but epidemiological evidence is sparse. We examined green tea and coffee consumption in association with thyroid cancer risk in a general Japanese population. Methods: We analyzed data from a prospective cohort of 100,507 persons (48,802 men; 51,705 women) aged 40-69. Green tea and coffee consumption were assessed via a self-administered questionnaire. During a mean 14.2-year follow-up, we documented 159 thyroid cancer cases (26 in men; 133 in women), and Cox regression were used to calculated hazard ratios (HRs). Results: Green tea consumption was not found to be associated with thyroid cancer risk in general. However, when women were stratified by menopausal status, the multivariable HR for ≥5 cups/day versus <1 cup/day was 1.66 (95% confidence interval (CI) = 0.85-3.23, trend p = 0.04) in premenopausal women, and was 0.47 (95% CI = 0.23-0.96, trend p = 0.06) in postmenopausal women. We found no association between coffee consumption and thyroid cancer risk in either sex. Conclusions: High green tea consumption may be positively associated with premenopausal thyroid cancer risk, but inversely associated with postmenopausal thyroid cancer risk. © 2011 Springer Science+Business Media B.V.
