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
Metabolic Syndrome (Metabolic Syndrome, MS) is associated with many other diseases in the elderly.We have studied a possible correlation between this disorder and depression in a Geriatric Centre. The study was conducted on a random sample of 30 geriatric patients, then divided into 2 groups according to clinical and instrumental diagnostic investigations: 15 patients affected MS according to the criteria of NCEP ATP III, and 15 controls without MS. Then it's administered theGeriatricDepression Scale (GDS). Elaboration of the results it appears statistically significant correlation (t=2.05, p=0.0495) between MS and depression in the elderly.
