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
The morphology of the spleen of the Red‐eared Slider, Chrysemys scripta elegans, has been described. The outer surface of the spleen is covered by a thin fibromuscular capsule, from which a number of trabeculae extend into the parenchyma. The parenchyma of the spleen shows a definite demarcation into a red and white pulp. The white pulp is composed of two lymphoid compartments: lymphoid tissue surrounds both central arterioles and ellipsoids, forming the periarteriolar and periellipsoidal lymphocyte sheath (PALS and PELS, respectively). The ellipsoids consist of a thick layer of reticular tissue, enclosing a capillary with cuboidal endothelium. In contrast with the PALS, reticular fibers are rarely found in the PELS. Even after severe stimulation with paratyphoid vaccine, germinal centers are not found in the spleen of C.s. elegans. The red pulp of the spleen is composed of a system of venous sinuses and cords.
