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
Nocardia asteroides ( Nocardia cyriacigeorgica ) strain GUH-2 infects the brains of mice following intravenous injection. Non-lethal infections resulted in a transitory increase of bacterial numbers in the brain followed by the development of permanent impaired movements at a time when bacteria appeared to be eliminated from the brain. These signs included headshake, rigidity, stooped posture, dyskinesia, retropulsion, and abnormal tail positioning in approximately 20% of infected animals. The attached video presents a typical mouse following infection with this organism, as compared to an age- and gender-matched uninfected control mouse.
