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
Purpose of review To discuss unresolved issues and recent findings regarding the use of statins in heart failure. Recent findings Recent data from Gruppo ltaliano per lo Studio della Sopravvivenza nell'Infarto miocardico-Heart Failure and Controlled Rosuvastatin Multinational Trial in Heart Failure suggest that statins did not have any effect on outcome despite significant reduction in low-density lipoprotein and high sensitivity C-reactive protein. Summary Most of the evidence for the use of statins in heart failure originates from retrospective trials and post-hoc analyses, and is not supported by prospective randomized clinical trials. There is no evidence to support initiating statin therapy in patients with symptomatic New York Heart Association II-IV heart failure, regardless of the cause. © 2009 Wolters Kluwer Health|Lippincott Williams & Wilkins.
