Metric Options: Counts1 Year3 YearSelecting 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
Using light and electron microscopy, 65 cases of amyloid deposits in the heart were examined. Five different groups were distinguished: I. isolated atrial amyloidosis, II. senile cardiac amyloidosis, III. cardiac amyloid accompanying chronic infections and tumors, IV. cardiac amyloid accompanying plasma cell dyscrasia, V. idiopathic cardiac amyloidosis. Seen structurally, no principal differences in the precise localization of the amyloid deposits were found in any of the groups investigated. Amyloid is always deposited in the vicinity of cells with myocytic cell differentiation (i.e. the heart muscle cells, non-striated muscle cells of the vessels), whereby the relevant basement membranes serve as conductors. A systematic relationship between amyloid and the collagenous fibers of the interstitium or the tunica adventitia of the vessels could not be demonstrated, which shows the concept "pericollagen" to be inadequate for the morphological characterization of amyloid deposits in the heart. Whereas for group I a localized mechanism for the production of amyloid must be considered, in the case of groups II-V a vascular principle expression of a generalized amyloidosis seems to be the major factor. The question of the differing concentration of amyloid deposits in the heart suggests that localized factors (e.g. changes in the myocytic basement membranes) and quantitative changes of the amyloid-building proteins may also be important. © 1983 Springer-Verlag.
