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
Traditional oral anti-diabetic agents for the treatment of diabetes mellitus include the sulfonylureas, metformin, and the α-glucosidase inhibitors. Insulin has traditionally been used in various forms with an aim to mimic physiological insulin secretion patterns. Combinations of any of these treatment classes have also been utilized for their additive effects. All of these options have specific advantages and disadvantages, making them ideal for certain patients and less ideal for others. Each of these treatment classes is briefly discussed with respect to mechanisms of action, clinical efficacy, side-effects and current controversies associated with their use. Newer agents (such as the thiazolidinediones, newer insulin secretagogues, and insulin analogues) will be discussed elsewhere. © 2002 Informa UK Ltd All rights reserved.
