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
The reproducibility of cytomorphometrical nuclear area measurements on transitional cell carcinoma is studied. The inter-individual consistency is low (r=0.55, P=0.0005) when nuclei for measurement are chosen at random. When we use a systematic analysis based on cell situation and cytological features of malignancy to select the 50 nuclei for measurement per slide, the consistency between two technicians appears to be significantly higher (r=0.90, P=0.015). Not only interindividual consistency increases using the selection, but the correlation with histological tumour grade also improves significantly for both technicians. The results show that cytomorphometry is a method of grading bladder carcinoma when an accurate selection of nuclei to measure is used. Cytomorphometrical studies should contain a clear description of the way the nuclei for measurement are chosen. © 1990 Springer-Verlag.
