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 histological structure of the kidney of the Atlantic eel is described. It appears typical of that of a freshwater teleost: the nephron includes a glomerulus, a ciliated neck segment, a proximal segment with a brush border which can be subdivided into 2 distinct portions, a distal segment, an initial collecting segment and a general collector. Injections of ovin-prolactin (24 U.I. per day) in the body cavity induce important modifications of the kidney structure. The most visible changes affect the initial collecting segment: its diameter increases, cells exhibit a clear cytoplasma, hypertrophied nuclei and nucleoli, with a chromatic nuclear membrane. In the various segments, the measurements of the cell height, of the width of the tubule and its lumen, and of the nuclear diameter show an increase which is statistically significant. A mitotic activity occurs in all segments of the tubule. These changes which appear maximal after 10 injections, suggest a stimulation by a prolactin treatment. In addition, numerous "buds" (or compact cell masses) appear close to the initial collecting segment; their differentiation leads to the formation of new kidney tubules which become rapidly active. These histological data are discussed in correlation with the modifications of water and electrolyte metabolism in various teleosts, produced by prolactin administration. © 1968 Springer-Verlag.
