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
Introduction: China is currently experiencing the problem of population aging, and the health status of the elderly has become a major focus of social attention. Objective: Study the effect of aerobic exercise on the indices of physical function in the elderly. Methods: 40 elderly people performed aerobic exercise 5 times a week for 8 weeks. Each exercise lasted 60 minutes, including 10 minutes of warm-up, 40 minutes of aerobic exercise (running, brisk walking, square dancing, among other activities), and 10 minutes of final cool-down. Data measurement included body indices, cardiopulmonary function, blood markers, and exercise capacity. Results: Aerobic exercise can effectively improve the body shape, cardiopulmonary function, and blood lipid content of the elderly, and improve their flexibility and physical quality, enhancing their activities of daily living. Conclusion: The results of this study show that aerobic exercise can effectively improve the body performance of the elderly in activities of daily living, effectively optimizing cardiopulmonary and lipid indexes. Engaging the elderly to participate in aerobic exercise should be considered by community social workers. Level of evidence II; Therapeutic studies-investigation of treatment outcomes.
