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.

Book Chapter Description
The synovium or synovial membrane is a distinct and rather complex structure that lines joints, tendons, fat pads, articular disks, and bursae. Its role is to maintain homeostasis. Its function and histomorphological aspect depend largely on the location and the particular joint. Synovium is found in synovial diarthrotic joints, where it namely forms the inner layer of the joint capsule. Histologically, the synovial membrane consists of two layers, a cellular intimal layer and a more fibrous subintimal layer. The intimal layer faces the articular space. Its main function is to produce and absorb the synovial fluid. The intima is composed of two types of cells, type A and type B synoviocytes. Type A cells serve as macrophages and are responsible for the phagocytosis of debris in the joint space. Type B synoviocytes are more dominantly present in the synovium and produce numerous extracellular matrix proteins, especially hyaluronic acid. The function of the subintimal layer, which is broad and contains blood vessels, nerves, and fibroblasts, is not yet fully understood. Synovium can be a site of development for a variety of benign, intermediate, and malignant tumors.
