Metric Options: CountsSelecting 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.

Review Description
Late menarche, giving birth, breastfeeding, oral contraceptive use, IUD use, and tubal ligation decrease risk for both endometrial and ovarian cancer, while more ovulatory cycles, obesity, use of talc in genital hygiene, and late menopause increase risk. Despite these similarities, different explanations are proposed: estrogen excess for endometrial and incessant ovulation for ovarian cancer. Common pathways could include reproductive tissue turnover with accumulation of PTEN or p53 mutations or an immunebased explanation involving mucin proteins. Seeking unified explanations for risk factors common to both cancers could lead to new perspectives on how to prevent these common and lethal gynecologic cancers. © 2012 Elsevier Inc.
