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
A study was conducted to demonstrate well-defined uncharged polymers with a sharp upper critical solution temperature (UCST) in water and in physiological milieu. The study also described the reversible addition-fragmentation chain transfer (RAFT) homopolymerization of N-acryloylasparaginamide (NAAAM). NAAAM was synthesized in a single step by reacting acryloyl chloride with L-asparaginamide hydrochloride. A series of NAAAM homopolymers of variable chain length were synthesized by RAFT polymerization and the properties of the formed homopolymers in dilute aqueous solutions were studied by turbidimetry. The formed polymers exhibited a well-definedmolecular structure and unprecedented UCST properties in water and in physiological milieu.
