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
Auditory neuropathy (AN), a recently described clinical entity, is a sensorineural disorder where the patient has hearing loss with impaired word discrimination out of proportion to pure tone loss in the presence of abnormal/absent auditory brain stem responses, and normal outer hair cell as measured by otoacoustic emissions and/cocklear microphonics. It is essential that the practicing ENT surgeon have a high degree of suspicion of AN in patients complaining of difficulty in understanding speech with hearing loss and audiological evidence of dissociation between pure-tone and speech audiometry. Appropriate newer diagnostic tests of ABR and OAE and/or CM for confirmation of AN is essential. We present a series of four patients with auditory neuropathy from a tertiary care teaching hospital. This is the first Series of 4 cases of this clinical entity from the Indian subcontinent.
