Metric Options: Counts1 Year3 YearSelecting 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
Blunt cardiac injury typically occurs in patients who are severely injured and have sustained significant thoracic trauma such as multiple rib fractures, pulmonary contusions and haemopneumothorax. Blunt cardiac injury while uncommon can have life threatening consequences. Often no clinical features manifest until a complication occurs which can be quite sudden. We describe the screening methods for blunt cardiac injury (most importantly the ECG), and discuss evaluation is focused on identifying those likely to develop cardiac complications, so they can be closely monitored and intervention rapidly performed.
