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
Objective: There is increasing awareness that posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) influences physical health. The current study used the National Comorbidity Survey (NCS) data to determine if the physical health risk imparted by PTSD was an artifact of a broad range of empirically identified confounding variables. Methods: Participants (n = 5877) were administered a modified version of the DSM-III-R PTSD module from the Diagnostic Interview Schedule (DIS). The prevalence of 14 classes of physical disorders was assessed along with six groups of variables predictive of negative health outcomes (demographics, perception of health, stress, health-related behaviors, insurance coverage, trauma/psychiatric history, and neuroticism). Results: The PTSD group had a higher frequency of most disorders and scored higher on variables predictive of negative health outcomes. To determine if the health risk imparted by PTSD was an artifact of these confounding variables, a mixed direct-sequential binary logistic regression was computed. After controlling for sex, health perceptions, stress, health-related behaviors, insurance coverage, total trauma exposure, total number of psychiatric diagnoses, and neuroticism, persons with PTSD were more likely to report the presence of a disorder. Conclusions: Previous scholars have noted that PTSD could affect health outcomes. This study found that after controlling for a wide range of variables predictive of poor health, PTSD was predictive of poor health. Copyright © 2005 by the American Psychosomatic Society.
