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
Though Huntington’s disease (HD) is frequently complicated by falls and consecutive traumatic brain injury (TBI) with subdural hematoma (SDH), traumatic subarachnoid bleeding (SAB) has not been reported as a complication of HD. A 67yo female with HD due to a CAG-repeat expansion of 43 repeats, diagnosed 18 months earlier, was admitted after a fall with a Glasgow-Coma Scale (GCS) score of 3. Cerebral CT on admission revealed bilateral SDH and SAB. No aneurysm could be detected on conventional angiography. After extubation, she was non-responsive to verbal requests and typical choreatic movement recurred. Tiaprid, olanzapine, and tetrabenazine were of limited effect. This case shows that falls in HD may not only cause SDH but rarely traumatic SAB. TBI in HD may worsen the phenotype and may increase the risk of a poor outcome.
