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
HIOMT activity in the pineal complex of Geotria australis ammocoetes was found to reach a peak, 4–5-fold that of the basal value, between 2 and 3 hr after the onset of darkness. This short burst of HIOMT activity was associated with aggregation of pigment in the melanophores causing pallor in the ammocoetes. 3 H-Melatonin was taken up by all the tissues examined (pineal complex, pituitary, endostyle, brain, liver, gut and tail muscle). It is concluded from these results that the pineal complex in Geotria australis is a photoneuroendocrine transducer conveying diurnal information to other body tissues.
