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
Glomerular changes develop in rats with streptozotocin diabetes. The structure of these lesions (nodular and diffuse glomerulosclerosis, mesangial cell proliferation, basement membrane thickening, glomerular aneurysms, fibrinoid caps, glomerular adhesions) is described in the present paper and the effect of normalization of metabolism by islet transplantation on the glomerular changes is studied with histological, immunohistological and morphometric methods. Isogenous islets were transplanted into the portal vein of streptozotocin-diabetic rats after diabetes of 7 months' duration. The kidneys of normal, diabetic and transplanted animals of the same age were studied 2.5 months later. Studies of the kinetics of immunocomplexes in the mesangium were also performed. The renal changes (glomerulosclerosis, mesangial cell proliferation) were largely reversible after islet transplantation and the blood glucose level and glucose tolerance were normalized. In the diabetic animals the delayed uptake and elimination of immunocomplexes in the mesangium was normalized after the transplantation. It is possible, that the cause of the lesions is a functional disturbance of the mesangium induced by insulin deficiency and/or hyperglycaemia. © 1980 Springer-Verlag.
