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
Spontaneous Coronary Artery Dissection (SCAD) is a non-atherosclerotic, non-iatrogenic cause of Acute Coronary Syndrome (ACS) resulting in a tear in the coronary artery wall with subsequent myocardial infarction. Though rare, it has been increasingly recognized, especially in young women. This is a case report on SCAD where, fortuitously, the patient did not receive standard tissue plasminogen activator (TPA) on presentation of suspected ST-elevation Myocardial Infarction (STEMI). Subsequent investigations revealed a left ventricular thrombus on echocardiogram and SCAD on coronary angiogram.
