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.

Article Description
This work is aimed to bring insights on the potential sexual dimorphism differences on the venom composition of Bothrops asper and Crotalus simus to expand the knowledge of the venom variability that might improve the antivenom design. Biological characterization of venoms of each sex in both species did not show significant qualitative differences. Considerations on the sexual venom variations in these species are not relevant for choosing the snake donors for venom production.
