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.

Review Description
The objective was to discuss the influence of the gut microbiota on the functions of the thyroid gland, elucidating the main aspects of rebalancing intestinal function and its importance in the regulation of thyroid functions. The present study followed a systematic review of the literature in periodicals published between 2010 and 2023. The microbiota of the healthy gastrointestinal system presents around 800 species of bacteria, and a hundred of these microorganisms together with bacteriophage viruses and fungi species characterize each human being, with maximum concentration in the colon. In the presence of dysbiosis, the malfunction of the epithelial barrier leads to intestinal and systemic disorders, mainly immunological and metabolic. The functions of the gut microbiota are fundamental and determinant in the metabolism of nutrients, drugs, and hormones, including exogenous and endogenous iodothyronines, as well as micronutrients involved in thyroid homeostasis. The state of the art of effects of the gut microbiota on the regulation of thyroid functions has not been fully elucidated. The intestinal tract is of great importance for the balance of exogenous and endogenous thyroid hormones, but the analysis of the composition of the microbiota is not an easy task. A recent study revealed that individuals with hyperthyroidism had significantly lower levels of Bifidobacteria and Lactobacilli and significantly higher levels of Enterococcus species compared to healthy controls.
