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.

Correction Description
In volume 13, issue 16 of Current Biology (pp. 1414–1417), we used a molecular-clock approach to date the origin of human body lice and, by inference, the origin of human clothing. To calibrate the molecular clock, we obtained mtDNA and nuclear gene sequences from a chimpanzee louse ( Pediculus schaeffi ). Reed et al. (PLoS Biol 2:e340, 2004) recently reported that the mtDNA cytochrome b ( CYTB ) sequence we reported for the chimpanzee louse fell outside the range of other Pediculus CYTB sequences [1]. After further investigation, we determined that our P. schaeffi CYTB sequence is closely related to Chironomus CYTB sequences and, hence, most likely reflects a contaminant. The sequences we reported for the mtDNA ND4 gene and the nuclear genes RPII and EF-1α from this chimpanzee louse do appear to reflect authentic P. schaeffi sequences. Reanalysis of our data with the P. schaeffi CYTB sequence from Reed et al. along with the rest of our CYTB and ND4 sequence data results in a time of 770,000 years for the human louse ancestor and 107,000 years for the origin of body lice. No other analyses are influenced by the incorrect P. schaeffi CYTB sequence, and none of our conclusions are changed.
