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
Progressive supranuclear palsy is one of the parkinsonial syndromes causing atypical parkinsonism. In recent reports, other than subcortical involvement, also cortical structures have been shown to be involved in progressive supranuclear palsy patients. One of the clinical presentations of this involvement is spontaneous arm levitation which is a component of alien limb syndrome. Here we report a clinically diagnosed progressive supranuclear palsy patient with spontaneous arm levitation. Clinically spontaneous levitation of one arm without denial of ownership suggests the presence of spontaneous arm levitation. Spontaneous arm levitation can occur in the setting of progressive supranuclear palsy and it possibly demonstrates the cortical involvement in this disorder.
