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 chemical structure of kidney stones was studied using single pulse laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy (SP-LIBS). This approach present the use of a high-resolution (CCD) spectrometer that covered a spectrum range of 165-820nm with an optical resolution of 0.5nm. The kidney stones were stimulated by a passively Q-Switch Nd:YAG laser operating at a pulse duration of 10 ns and a fundamental wavelength of 1,064nm. The electron temperature (Te) and plasma density (ne) for the SP-LIBS system were investigated for all elements in the sample. A novel statistical method was employed to calculate the concentration of each element. This technique presented a straight forward and efficient approach for estimating the rate of concentration for each element.
