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
Night work might influence cancer risk, possibly via suppression of melatonin release. In a population-based case-control study conducted in Montreal, Quebec, Canada, between 1979 and 1985, job histories, including work hours, were elicited from 3,137 males with incident cancer at one of 11 anatomic sites and from 512 controls. Compared with men who never worked at night, the adjusted odds ratios among men who ever worked at night were 1.76 (95 confidence interval (CI): 1.25, 2.47) for lung cancer, 2.03 (95 CI: 1.43, 2.89) for colon cancer, 1.74 (95 CI: 1.22, 2.49) for bladder cancer, 2.77 (95 CI: 1.96, 3.92) for prostate cancer, 2.09 (95 CI: 1.40, 3.14) for rectal cancer, 2.27 (95 CI: 1.24, 4.15) for pancreatic cancer, and 2.31 (95 CI: 1.48, 3.61) for non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. Equivocal evidence or no evidence was observed for cancers of the stomach (odds ratio (OR)= 1.34, 95 CI: 0.85, 2.10), kidney (OR= 1.42, 95 CI: 0.86, 2.35), and esophagus (OR= 1.51, 95 CI: 0.80, 2.84) and for melanoma (OR= 1.04, 95 CI: 0.49, 2.22). There was no evidence of increasing risk with increasing duration of night work, with risks generally being increased across all duration categories. Results suggest that night work may increase cancer risk at several sites among men. © 2012 The Author.
