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
For the purposes of studying the phenomenon of evoked oto-acoustic emissions (EOAEs) in very-low-birth-weight (VLBW) infants, and the conditions affecting the utility of EOAE ear screening in this population, click EOAEs were repeatedly recorded in ears of 144 VLBW infants, at different postconceptional ages of the infants and at two different test sites, i.e. in the neonatal high-care unit (ward), or at the neonatal outpatient clinic. The postconceptional age of the infants examined in the ward was 30-49 weeks and 37-66 weeks for the infants examined at the outpatient clinic. Overall 840 recording attempts were done. In the ward 86% of these attempts (388) were successful against 60% (of 452 attempts) at the outpatient clinic. In the latter group of infants the success rate of recording was only 33% at the corrected age of 6 months, which is significantly less than the 66% until the corrected age of 3 months. For a cross-sectional analysis of age effects one ear of each successfully recorded infant was selected. Analysis of the 127 successful recordings revealed that the EOAE prevalence was 71% in the ward (54% for infants receiving extra oxygen per naso) and 91% at the outpatient clinic. Compared with healthy newborns, VLBW infants are much more difficult to test, especially at the outpatient clinic. However, the EOAE prevalence at this test site is the highest and approaches that in healthy newborns. At the outpatient clinic response levels of EOAEs recorded approach levels found in healthy newborns. The higher success rate of recording in the ward and the lower EOAE prevalence are two counteracting factors as to the utility of EOAE-based ear screening of VLBW infants. © 1994 Informa UK Ltd All rights reserved: reproduction in whole or part not permitted.
