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
Traditionally, the initiation of nutrition support in preterm infants has been delayed for several days, sometimes weeks, after birth. The unstable clinical condition of these infants, coupled with fears of adverse metabolic consequences, has often complicated nutrient delivery in the immediate postnatal period. Now, with the increasing survival rate of smaller, more critically ill neonates, efforts to improve their long-term outcomes have prompted investigation into the effect of optimizing their nutrition management. As a result, the initiation of parenteral and enteral nutrition beginning in the first days of life has been studied extensively. Although additional research continues to be needed, current findings support the use of earlier, more aggressive nutrition support in these high-risk infants. © 2001, SAGE Publications.
