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
Inflammatory joint diseases cause pain and disability. The objective of this study was to measure the quality of life of patients with rheumatoid arthritis, psoriatic arthritis, and ankylosing spondylitis treated with certolizumab pegol and compare the results with those of the general population. Using a cross-sectional design and sociodemographic and clinical variables, adherence to treatment and quality of life data were collected using the Euroqol-5d-5L (EQ-5D) questionnaire. The quality of life of the general population was obtained from the Spanish National Health Survey. Answers to the EQ-5D questionnaire were analyzed in both groups using two-part models, which measure the probability of having perfect health as well as the disutility caused by the disease. The sample included 59 patients with high adherence (92.3%). The mean utility value was 0.78 and pain was the most affected dimension. The reduction in utility (EQ-5D index) of patients with inflammatory joint disease as compared to the general population was 0.127. The subjects of the study showed a significantly lower quality of life than the general population despite effective control of the disease. Two-part models facilitate the interpretation of quality-of-life studies using the EQ-5D. Las enfermedades articulares inflamatorias causan dolor y discapacidad. El objetivo fue medir la calidad de vida de los pacientes con artritis reumatoide, artritis psoriásica, espondilitis anquilosante en tratamiento con certolizumab pegol y compararla con la de la población general. Con un diseño transversal se recogieron variables sociodemográficas y clínicas, adherencia al tratamiento y calidad de vida mediante el cuestionario Euroqol-5d-5L (EQ-5D). La calidad de vida de la población general se obtuvo de la Encuesta Nacional de Salud. El EQ-5D se analizó en ambos grupos mediante modelos de dos partes que miden la probabilidad de tener una salud perfecta y la disutilidad causada por la enfermedad. La muestra incluyó 59 pacientes con una adherencia alta (92,3%). La utilidad media fue de 0,78 y el dolor resultó la dimensión más afectada. La reducción de utilidad (índice EQ-5D) de los pacientes con enfermedades articulares inflamatorias respecto a la población general fue de 0,127. Los pacientes muestran una calidad de vida significativamente menor que la población general a pesar del buen control de la enfermedad. Los modelos de dos partes facilitan la interpretación de los estudios de calidad de vida mediante EQ-5D.
