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
Limb buds of day-14 rat fetuses were cut into pieces and transplanted into athymic (nude) mice. On the 7th and 9th days after grafting, the host nude mice were given cyclophosphamide intraperitoneally (10–120 mgkg ) or thalidomide orally (30–240 mgkg ). On the 20th day, the grafted tissue was examined maeroscopically and histologically. The grafts maintained in vehicle-treated nude mice showed considerable growth and tissue differentiation similar to in vivo. Growth and histogenesis of the grafts were significantly inhibited by treatment with cyclophosphamide (⩾ 20 mgkg ). There was no indication that treatment with thalidomide (⩽ 240 mgkg ) adversely affects the development of grafted limbs. Thus, the susceptibility of transplanted rat limb buds to these two human teratogens was identical to the susceptibility of living rat fetuses. The heterotransplantation method of embryonic tissues may be of potential use for the study of teratogenic mechanisms and for the screening of human teratogens.
