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
The most common appendicular disease is acute appendicitis, with a lifetime risk of 7%-8%. Complicated cases, which can occur in 2%-7% of patients, can significantly impact the severity of the condition and may require different management approaches. Nonoperative management with possible delayed appendectomy has been suggested for selected patients, however, there is a non-negligible risk of missing an underlying malignancy, which is reported to be as high as 11%. Diagnostic work-up is paramount to achieve optimal treatment with good results.
