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.

Findings from Hokkaido University in the Area of COVID-19 Reported (Reliability of the Unified Multiple System Atrophy Rating Scale Using the Telephone)

Article Description
The unified multiple system atrophy rating scale (UMSARS) was used to evaluate various symptoms of multiple system atrophy (MSA). And UMSARS part 1 was originally developed for use in interviews, but the need for telemedicine is increasing in COVID-19 pandemic. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the reliability of the UMSARS part 1 telephone survey. Thirty-two MSA patients took the UMSARS part 1 face-to-face, followed by two more telephone evaluations. Intraclass correlation coefficients (ICC) and Cronbach’s alpha (α) coefficients were calculated, and the inter-rater reliability was determined. At the same time, we asked about the problems in COVID-19 pandemic. The study participants included 15 men and 17 women with mean age of 67.1 years (SD, 8.3). For the total UMSARS part 1 score, the inter-rater ICC and Cronbach’s α coefficient were 0.89 to 0.92, and 0.84 to 0.87, respectively. More than half of the items had a relatively high ICC. Cronbach’s α coefficients were more than 0.7 for all items. Changes that occurred in COVID-19 pandemic included reduced outings and lack of rehabilitation in about half of the cases. The UMSARS part 1 has high inter-rater reliability and internal consistency. Evaluation of subjective symptoms showed that some variability could occur. In addition, there was concern about the influence of lack of rehabilitation due to COVID-19 pandemic.
