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.

Review Description
Transposable elements (TEs) have skill of altering the position inside the genome and these TEs are widespread in both of plants and animals. They are separated into class I called retrotransposons, and class II called DNA transposons. According to the previous studies, not only TEs are related with disease, they are key factor of human and primate evolution. From this review, we discussed about the impact of transposable element, its role in the genome of human and primates and how TE distribution is differ from them. Additionally, we described how TEs contributed on primate evolution by its unique role. This review could be great use for further studies in relation to evolution mechanism and various diseases.
