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.

Book Chapter Description
Drug bioavailability is defined as the rate and extent of drug absorption. The rate and extent of drug absorption are determined by both drug physical chemical and formulation characteristics, and underlying patient factors. The latter include gastrointestinal motility, surface area, pH, and intestinal flora. In addition, concomitant ingestion of food or other drugs can also affect drug absorption. The calculation of oral bioavailability entails a comparison, either with an intravenous dose that is completely absorbed or with another oral formulation. In the former case, absolute bioavailability is calculated, in the latter case, the result is termed relative bioavailability. The stable isotope method for conducting bioavailability studies is described and the pharmacokinetic equations for calculating the rate and extent of drug absorption are derived.
