- Abstract
The article discusses a study related to the Relative Citation Ratio (RCR) that emerges objecting to the construction of both the numerator and denominator of the metric. It mentions addition of data on the stability of RCR values with reference to article citation rates of older articles. It also highlights analysis of the year-by-year changes in RCR values of articles funded by the U.S. National Institutes of Health (NIH).
