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
Molecular genetics is a rapidly expanding field with possibilities for novel diagnostic and treatment strategies for otological diseases. Gene therapy, if theory is proven practical, could eliminate disease at the molecular level, thus obviating the need for pharmacologic or surgical treatment. Recent years have seen great advances in our understanding of the molecular genetic basis of many otological disorders. Building on the success of the Human Genome Project, new technologies are in development to identify disease-causing mutations through genetic testing. A basic understanding of the genetic basis of Otological diseases is crucial to the practising Otologist and the time has come for genetic services to be incorporated into regular Otological clinics.
