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
Heart failure (HF) etiology, presentation and prognosis differ by sex, with female sex-specific and -predominant risk factors playing important roles. We systematically reviewed the studies cited by the 2017 American College of Cardiology/ American Heart Association/ Heart Failure Society of America Focused Update of the 2013 ACCF/AHA Guideline for the Management of Heart Failure. Female cardiovascular risk factors were broadly categorized as female sex-specific (reproductive, pregnancy, menopausal) and female sex-predominant (depression, anthracycline exposure, autoimmune disease) risk factors. Of the 205 cited articles, only 3 studies (1.6%) reported any female sex-specific cardiovascular risk factor in the data analysis or results sections. Oral contraceptive use ( n = 1), menopausal status ( n = 2) and hormone replacement therapy ( n = 2) were the only female sex-specific cardiovascular risk factors reported. No other female sex-specific or -predominant cardiovascular risk factor was reported by any of the eligible studies. Our work highlights that in addition to the need for proportional representation of women in heart failure clinical studies, inclusion of female sex-specific and -predominant risk factors in data collection and analysis is of paramount importance to guide heart failure care in the female population.
