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
Introduction: Class II growing patients can be successfully treated with the Herbst appli-ance, nevertheless this therapy generally produces side effects, such as upper incisors retroclination and lower incisors proclination, which eventually could reduce mandibular forward advancement. Treatment objectives: The purpose of this article is to show a treatment of class II malocclusion with crowding in both arches by a skeletally reinforced Herbst appliance. Treatment description: Two miniscrews were applied in the lower arch to control lower incisors proclination and in the upper arch an Hybrid palatal expander was used. Results: the correction of the severe class II malocclusion was obtained with mandibular advancement, avoiding lower incisors proclination with control also of the upper incisors. Upper crowding with lack of space for upper canine alignment was corrected. Conclusions: Upper and lower miniscrews worked successfully as anchorage for the entire treat-ment.
