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.

Case Description
Our case report includes a 42 year old male who had C6–C7 fracture dislocation with complete spinal cord injury following a motor vehicle accident. The patient underwent combined anterior and posterior fixation of the cervical spine. However, the patient had hypotension as a part of neurogenic shock and required vasopressor to maintain mean arterial pressure. The patient was treated in Intensive Care Unit with noradrenaline infusion to maintain mean arterial pressure but it was really challenging to stop the vasopressor. The patient was started on oral Midodrine and Fludrocortisone; vasopressor dose was tapered and finally stopped.
