The Impact Factor measures the average number of citations received in a particular year by papers published in the journal during the two preceding years. 2017 Journal Citation Reports (Clarivate Analytics, 2018) IF: 2.4 To calculate the five year Impact Factor, citations are counted in 2017 to the previous five years and divided by the source items published in the previous five years. 2017 Journal Citation Reports (Clarivate Analytics, 2018) 5-Year IF: 2.8 The Immediacy Index is the average number of times an article is cited in the year it is published. The journal Immediacy Index indicates how quickly articles in a journal are cited. Immediacy Index: 0.5 The Eigenfactor score, developed by Jevin West and Carl Bergstrom at the University of Washington, is a rating of the total importance of a scientific journal. Journals are rated according to the number of incoming citations, with citations from highly ranked journals weighted to make a larger contribution to the eigenfactor than those from poorly ranked journals. Eigenfactor: 0.00049 The Journal Citation Indicator (JCI) is a single measurement of the field-normalized citation impact of journals in the Web of Science Core Collection across disciplines. The key words here are that the metric is normalized and cross-disciplinary. JCI: 0.59 SJR: 0.429 SNIP: 0.507 CiteScore™:: 3.9 H-Index: 49

RESUMO

During the last 25 years, there have been revolutionary advances in the treatment of Familial Adenomatous Polyposis (FAP). The purpose of this article is to describe the pathophysiology, genetic testing, surveillance, surgical interventions, and psychosocial issues. The genetic defect in FAP is germline mutation in the adenomatous polyposis coli (APC) gene. Syndromes once thought to be distinct from FAP are now recognized to be part of the phenotypic spectrum of FAP. Syndromes with a germline mutation in the APC gene include FAP, Gardner syndrome, Turcot syndrome, and Attenuated Adenomatous Polyposis Coli (AAPC). FAP is a germline mutation in the APC gene with onset of florid polyposis in childhood and development of colorectal cancer by age 30. Colectomy is advised because of the high risk of developing colorectal cancer. AAPC is a variant of this condition with later age of onset and milder clinical pheno-type. However, colectomy is advised once polyposis develops and polyps cannot be managed endoscopically. Despite the unique advances in genetic testing, psychosocial management of these syndromes remains to be a challenging problem.
