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
Scopo del presente lavoro è valutare gli effetti dei farmaci antidepressivi triciclici sul cavo orale. Un questionario sulle abitudini igieniche orali e alimentari è stato somministrato e un esame clinico parodontale e un test salivare sono stati eseguiti in 30 pazienti in terapia cronica con antidepressivi triciclici (gruppo test) e 30 pazienti che non assumevano farmaci (gruppo controllo). I test t di Student e Chi quadrato di Pearson sono stati adoperati per valutare le differenze statistiche tra i gruppi e il livello di significatività è stato posto per p < 0,05. I pazienti del gruppo test hanno mostrato un livello più alto (p < 0,05) di accumulo di placca, infiammazione gengivale, sanguinamento al sondaggio e profondità di sondaggio in confronto al gruppo controllo. Nessuna differenza significativa è stata osservata in base alla perdita di attacco clinico e lesioni interradicolari (p > 0,05). Il gruppo test ha evidenziato una maggiore xerostomia al test salivare, una ridotta durata di spazzolamento e un minore uso della tecnica di spazzolamento corretta. Il differente status parodontale osservato nei pazienti in terapia con antidepressivi triciclici potrebbe essere dovuto alle diverse abitudini igieniche orali e in parte all’azione antimuscarinica di questi farmaci e alla conseguente xerostomia. The aim of this work was to evaluate the effects of tricyclic antidepressants on oral health. A questionnaire including information about oral hygiene and diet was filled in by every subject; moreover a periodontal examination and a salivary test were performed on 30 patients receiving chronic antidepressant therapy with tricyclics (test group) and on 30 healthy patients (control group). t-test and Chi-square test were used in order to evaluate statistical differences between the groups and the significant rate was set at p < 0.05. The test group patients showed a higher level (p < 0.05) of plaque accumulation, gingival inflammation, bleeding on probing and probing depth in comparison with the control group. No significant difference was observed as regards clinical attachment loss and furcations (p > 0.05). The test group showed a higher xerostomia and a reduced gum brushing duration and technique (p < 0.05). The different periodontal status found in subjects taking tricyclics may be due to oral hygiene behavior and partly to the antimuscarinic effect of these drugs with consequent xerostomia.
