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
Dabigatran is used for the prevention of stroke and systemic embolism in patients with nonvalvular atrial fibrillation. It is still unclear whether the use of dabigatran leads to more bleeding compared with warfarin. In this paper, we present a case of intraperitoneal hemorrhage in a 54-years-old male peritoneal dialysis patient using dabigatran for paroxysmal atrial fibrillation because international normalized ratio level could not be kept at target levels during follow-up. The use of dabigatran in atrial fibrillation has become widespread in recent years. Despite the low risk of intracranial hemorrhage, clinicians should be careful in patients with chronic kidney disease because coagulation monitoring is not possible.
