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
India noticed a surge in maternal mortality and stillbirth rate during the COVID-19 pandemic. This rise in mortality is not always due to viral infection by COVID-19 but is probably contributed by other determinants. We present a case of maternal mortality with stillbirth in a multigravida, at 41 weeks' gestation, with bronchial asthma, severe preeclampsia, fetal bradycardia, severe symptoms of flu infection, and a previous cesarean delivery. She delivered a stillborn baby by emergency cesarean delivery and due to adverse obstetric consequences, she succumbed. Disruption of the overwhelmed healthcare system to cope with the COVID-19 pandemic has caused unsupervised pregnancy, unprecedented delays in reaching the hospital, delays in receiving proper care, and suboptimal care due to difficulty in differentiating actual severe preeclampsia from COVID-19-induced preeclampsia-like syndrome have resulted in preventable maternal mortality and stillbirth.
