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
Listeria monocytogenes is an invasive bacterial pathogen capable of multiplying inside many host cells, including macrophages, enterocytes and hepatocytes. There is evidence to believe that secretion of listeriolysin O, an SH-activated exotoxin, is crucial for bacterial growth in host tissues. This exotoxin is stimulated in iron-deprived medium and mostly active at low pH (5.5). Electron microscopic studies showed that intracellular bacteria rapidly disrupt the vacuole membrane of phagosomes and freely multiply inside the cytosol of infected cells, thus escaping at an early stage of infection from the cellular microbicidal mechanisms. Vacuole disruption does not occur with a nonhemolytic mutant obtained by insertion of a single copy of transposon Tn 1545 in the structural gene of listeriolysin O. These results strongly suggest that listeriolysin O is a major factor promoting intracellular growth of L. monocytogenes and that intracellular growth of virulent bacteria is initiated after escaping from the phagosomal compartment. © 1988 MMV Medizin Verlag GmbH München.
