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
L’un des objectifs majeurs de l’utilisation systématique de l’échographie obstétricale pendant la grossesse est le dépistage des malformations fœtales. Notre objectif était d’analyser l’efficience médico-économique de ce dépistage. Nous avons réalisé une revue de la littérature à partir de Medline via PubMed, entre 1985 et 2015, sur l’aspect médico-économique du dépistage par échographie des malformations fœtales. La littérature était très pauvre sur le sujet et nous n’avons pu retenir et analyser que 12 articles présentant des données intéressantes pour notre revue, dont huit véritables études médico-économiques. Nous avons identifié des arguments en faveur du caractère économiquement pertinent d’un programme de dépistage des malformations, ceci étant en grande partie lié à la pratique des interruptions médicales de grossesse et aux coûts des handicaps « évités », mais sans pouvoir conclure d’un point de vue médico-économique. Nous avons surtout pu mettre en évidence plusieurs éléments compliquant l’application de ces analyses dans ce domaine : le choix du type d’étude, la forte incertitude sur deux paramètres essentiels (l’efficacité de l’échographie et le coût des procédures), la difficulté à comparer ou généraliser les résultats. Nous avons aussi constaté l’hétérogénéité méthodologique des études et l’absence d’étude française. Les données existantes de la littérature sont actuellement insuffisantes pour évaluer l’efficience médico-économique du dépistage des malformations par échographie. The systematic use of ultrasound during pregnancy aims at birth defect detection. Our objective was to assess the economic efficiency of prenatal ultrasound screening for fetal malformations. We carried out a literature review on Medline via PubMed between 1985 and 2015, from the economic perspective of the prenatal ultrasound screening for fetal malformations. The literature on this subject was sparse and we selected only twelve articles presenting relevant economic data, of which only eight were proper medico-economic studies. We found arguments for the economic effectiveness of ultrasound screening for fetal malformation detection, which is largely linked to the terminations of pregnancies and to the cost of the handicaps “avoided”. However, none of the reviewed articles could reach medico-economic conclusions. Additionally, we highlighted various elements making economic analyses more complex in this field: the choice of the method, the uncertainty around two essential parameters (the efficiency of ultrasound and the costs of procedures) and the difficulties to compare or to generalize results. We also noticed important methodological heterogeneity among the studies and the absence of French study. Previously published data are insufficient to assess the economic efficiency of prenatal ultrasound screening for fetal malformations.
