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
El dolor abdominal es una causa frecuente de consulta ambulatoria, sus causas son múltiples e incluyen patologías de riesgo vital u otras de bajo riesgo que requieren principalmente tratamiento y no requieren mayores estudios. La historia clínica y el examen físico son las herramientas principales para poder sospechar la etiología de la enfermedad que está causando el dolor abdominal. Es por esto que realizar una historia completa, haciendo preguntas dirigidas a confirmar o descartar sospechas diagnósticas, asociado a un examen físico completo y sistemático, es la principal forma de orientar el diagnóstico y estudio posterior del paciente. Conocer el cuadro clínico de las enfermedades que dentro de sus síntomas pueden presentar dolor abdominal, especialmente aquellas que son de riesgo vital permite poder diagnosticarlas con la rapidez que se requiere. Así mismo, es necesario reconocer aquellas enfermedades que son más frecuentes y que no requieren mayores estudios sino tratamiento básico, habitualmente ambulatorio. Existen personas que, por sus condiciones de salud o edad, pueden tener presentaciones atípicas de cuadros habituales o mayores riesgos de tener enfermedades infrecuentes o de mayor riesgo vital, que es importante reconocer al momento de la evaluación.

Older adults or patients with comorbidities may present with unusual causes of abdominal pain or may have an atypical presentation of common disorders. Also, may present more frequent serious etiologies that may require urgent interventions.
