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
Psoriasis is a chronic, relapsing, inflammatory skin disorder with a strong genetic basis. Five patterns of psoriatic arthritis have been identified: asymmetrical oligoarticular arthritis, symmetrical polyarthritis, distal interphalangeal arthropathy, arthritis mutilans and spondylitis with or without sacroiliitis. Extra-articular disease is uncommon. We report a rare case of an inflammatory posterior interosseus nerve palsy in a patient with known psoriatic arthropathy, where investigation warranted medical treatment over a surgical approach. The commonest cause of posterior interosseus nerve palsy is entrapment at the proximal forearm. Other possible aetiologies include extension of elbow synovitis as described in rheumatoid arthritis, trauma eg. Monteggia fractures, tumours and iatrogenic injuries. We discuss the diagnostic dilemma and the management issues for upper limb surgeons.
