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.

Review Description
Pharmaceutical drug analysis (PDA), besides quantifying drugs and related substances (RS), can enrich drug discovery (DD) by suggesting new leads. PDA may be extended towards comparative in-silico predictions for drugs and RS. This may lead to the assessment of drug likeliness of nontoxic RS as an incentive to study them further. This review overviews the in-silico profiling of drugs and RS as an innovative scope. It may help extending classical PDA with in-silico determinations to widen horizon from regulatory toxicology evaluation towards drug discovery. The virtual screening of selected RS may indicate them as potential DD leads. The extension of impurity profiling, after toxicity evaluation, to ADME estimation, QSAR studies, molecular docking, and bioactivity prediction, has widened the purposes of drug analysis. The RS which are predicted to have low toxicity may be in-silico exploited for their therapeutic potential prior to entering into the DD path.
