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
Global cerebral blood flow and the cerebral metabolic rates of oxygen, CO, glucose and lactate were studied in 11 patients aged 61-78 years who had been clinically diagnosed as suffering from incipient late-onset dementia of the Alzheimer type (DAT), and in 7 patients aged 66-83 years, in whom advanced late-onset DAT had been diagnosed, using the Kety-Schmidt technique. In incipient late-onset DAT, the predominant abnormality was a 45% reduction in cerebral glucose utilization, whereas cerebral blood flow and the cerebral metabolic rate of oxygen were diminished by only 17% and 18%, respectively. A severe imbalance between oxygen utilization and glucose utilization thus became obvious. In contrast, in advanced stages of late-onset DAT, this imbalance between oxygen and glucose utilization rates in the brain became smaller and smaller, and cerebral blood flow diminished markedly; these biological brain parameters finally all settled down at between 55% and 65% of the corresponding control values. The predominant abnormality in brain glucose utilization in incipient late-onset DAT may be associated with an impairment of its control mechanism(s), which are assumed to be either an influence of brain insulin action, or brain insulin receptor function, or both. © 1991 Springer-Verlag.
