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
The decrease of pyrimidine 5' -nucleotidase (P5N) in human erythrocytes, detected in persons occupationally exposed to lead (Pb), is not an in vitro artefact resulting from the release of lead during erythrocyte hemolysis but is a true reflection of the enzyme activity in vivo. Like Pb, mercury (Hg) and cadmium (Cd) ions exhibit an important in vitro inhibitory action on the P5N enzymic activity. However, when the metals are preincubated as metallothionein complexes with P5N preparations, their inhibitory power disappears.
