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
Acute experimental pancreatitis was induced in rats, with a polyethylene splint placed into the duodenum, by the closed duodenal loop technique. Ranitidine (20 mg . kg-1) or saline were administered intraperitoneally every 8 hrs, beginning 15 min prior to surgery. The degree of pancreatitis and the amylase to creatinine clearance ratio (ACCR) were evaluated in all the animals after sacrifice. Ranitidine-treated animals showed significant by reduced pancreatic damage and ACCR values in comparison with non-treated rats. These data confirm the efficacy of ranitidine as a preventive agent in the development of acute pancreatitis and suggest that controlled trials should be performed with this H2-antagonist in the human subyects with this disease.
