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
We sought to demonstrate that elevated first-trimester uric acid is associated with development of gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM). Uric acid was measured in 1570 plasma samples collected at mean gestational age of 8.9 ± 2.5 weeks. The primary outcome was GDM, diagnosed by 3-hour glucose tolerance test using Carpenter and Coustan criteria or by a 1-hour value of ≥200 mg/dL. Logistic regression was performed, adjusting for relevant covariates. Almost half (46.6%) of the women with GDM had first-trimester uric acid concentrations in the highest quartile (>3.57-8.30 mg/dL). Women with uric acid in the highest quartile had a 3.25-fold increased risk (95% confidence interval, 1.35–7.83) of developing GDM after adjustment for body mass index and age. This effect was concentration dependent as risk increased with increasing uric acid quartiles ( P =.003). First-trimester hyperuricemia is associated with an increased risk of developing GDM, independent of body mass index.
