Metric Options: CountsSelecting 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
Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) is an extremely aggressive primary human brain tumor. The median survival of GBM patients is 15 months in case of completing the modern complex treatment protocol. Chemotherapy can help to extend the life expectancy of patients. GBM treatment resistance is associated with cancer stem cells (CSCs). The present paper analyses the main reasons for ineffectiveness of the existing GBM treatment methods and suggests treating CSCs as a complex phenomenon, resulting from the coordinated interaction of normal stem cells and cancer cells (CCs) in immunosuppressive microsurroundings. The GBM treatment strategy is suggested not for only suppressing strategically important signaling pathways in CCs, but also for regulating interaction between normal stem cells and cancer cells. The paper considers the issue of controlling penetrability of the blood-brain barrier that is one of the main challenges in neuro-oncology. Also, the paper suggests the ways of extending life expectancy of GBM patients today and prospects for the near future.
