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: To assess the risk factors and complications of liver disease in a tertiary care hospital with the main objectives of identifying the relation between liver disease and its risk factors, smoking, alcohol consumption and obesity. Methods: A prospective observational study was conducted in a tertiary care hospital from August 2018 to February 2019. The data was collected with the consent of the patient from the case sheets and also by personally questioning the patient regarding the social habits, previous medical and medication history. The results of the data were obtained by performing statistical analysis of the study using Chi-square test. Results: From the study it is observed that the prevalence of liver disease was more in males (89%) than in females (11%). The study also suggests that the risk of developing the cirrhosis of liver is more in smokers (52%) than in nonsmokers (31%). The study clearly depicts that obese and overweight individuals are at an increased risk of developing the liver disease compared to the normal individuals.
