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.

This App Will Help Parents Use Their Car Seats Correctly & Here's How It Works
It can be hard to keep up with all the changing recommendations for keeping kids safe, but one study has discovered the perfect way to
Article Description
The growing interest in incorporating prevention into emergency health care make it timely to examine the use of computer technology to efficiently deliver effective education in this setting. This RCT compared results from an intervention group ( n =367) that received child passenger safety information, to an attention-matched control ( n =375). A baseline survey and two follow-up surveys at 3 and 6 months were conducted. Data were collected from June 2014 to September 2016 from a sample of parents with children aged 4–7 years recruited from a pediatric emergency department in an East Coast urban area and one in a Midwest semi-rural area. A theory-based, stage-tailored educational program, Safety in Seconds v2.0 TM, delivered on a mobile app. Four car seat behaviors: (1) having the correct restraint for the child’s age and weight; (2) having the child ride in the backseat all the time; (3) buckling up the child all the time; and (4) having the child’s restraint inspected by a child passenger safety technician. At 3 months, adjusting for baseline behaviors and attrition, the odds of reporting the correct behavior by the intervention group relative to the control group was 2.07 ( p <0.01) for using the correct car seat; 2.37 ( p <0.05) times for having the child ride in the back seat; 1.04 (nonsignificant) for riding buckled up all the time; and 1.99 ( p <0.01) times for having the car seat inspected. At 6 months, there were statistically significant effects for reporting use of the correct car seat (OR=1.84, p <0.01) and having the car seat inspected (OR=1.73, p <0.01). Mobile apps hold promise for reaching large populations with individually tailored child passenger safety education. Clinical Trial Registration # NCT02345941.
