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
Vein graft failure remains a major concern after coronary artery bypass graft operations, and is initiated by loss of endothelial cell integrity. Preservation of saphenous vein grafts in the optimal solution after meticulous harvesting can limit the endothelial damage. Despite both experimental and clinical results in favor of buffered solutions, normal saline is still the most widely used solution. This review examines the literature to identify the most optimal storage solutions currently available for vein graft preservation.
