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.

Article Description
Objective: To determine if platelet rich plasma has an effect on improvement in healing, function, and pain levels in orthopedic conditions. Methods: The studies included were a triple blinded randomized control study, randomized control trials, meta-analysis, and systematic reviews. Results: Overall through this research, there is limited evidence on PRP injections for healing purposes, however a significant amount of evidence shows improvement in both function and pain levels with PRP injections over time. Conclusion: The use of PRP injections have shown optimal results over time for both pain and function, however more research is needed to be conducted with a larger sample size to increase the validity of the findings.Keywords: Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP), Healing, Function, Pain, Orthopedic Conditions
