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
Aim: We conducted a meta-analysis to compare the efficacy and safety of oral and intravenous applications of tranexamic acid (TXA) in total hip arthroplasty (THA). Materials & methods: Electronic databases, including PubMed, Cochrane CENTRAL, ScienceDirect and Embase, were searched to identify the studies comparing the efficacy and safety of oral and intravenous applications of TXA in THA. Relevant journals and conference proceedings were manually searched. The pooled data were analyzed using RevMan 5.1. Results: Four randomized control trials and one retrospective study were identified. A meta-analysis showed no significant differences in hemoglobin reduction, total blood loss and transfusion requirements. Conclusion: Oral applications of TXA are comparable to intravenous applications of TXA in primary unilateral THA for blood conservation and cost-saving measures.
