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
Leukotriene B (LTB) production in polymorphonuclear leucocytes (PMN) was examined in ten children with steroid-responsive nephrotic syndrome (SRNS) before, during, and after steroid administration. Comparison of LTB production was made in 14 children with non-inflammatory disease who were not receiving steroid therapy. No significant change was noted in PMN LTB biosynthesis in children with SRNS throughout any phase of the disease. Furthermore, there was no significant difference in LTB biosynthesis in PMN between SRNS patients before steroid therapy and patients with non-inflammatory disease. These findings suggest that inhibition of LTB production is not involved in the mechanism underlying steroid action in SRNS. © 1990 IPNA.
