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
Diabetic retinopathy (DR), a common and blinding diabetic microvascular complication, is a harmful metabolic effect caused by persistent hyperglycemia. Owing to the complex pathogenesis of DR, various clinical treatment methods cannot completely prevent its development and are accompanied by various complications. Therefore, there is an urgent need to identify new therapeutic drugs or complementary and alternative therapies. Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) has the unique advantages of multi-level, multi-target, and minimal side effects. Accumulating evidence has proven that TCM may help delay or prevent the progression of DR. This paper reviews the effect and mechanism of representative TCMs (including extracts, identified compounds, and compound formulas) on DR in recent years and provides evidence for new drug development and clinical efficacy.
