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
The aim of this study was to investigate the distribution of leukocytes and the morphological changes of the sow endometrium throughout the oestrous cycle. Fifteen crossbred multiparous sows (Swedish Landrace x Swedish Yorkshire), with an average parity number of 3.4+/-0.7 (mean+/-S.D.) were used. Blood samples were collected from the jugular vein 1 h before slaughter for analyses of oestradiol-17beta and progesterone levels. Uterine samples from the mesometrial side of both horns, taken immediately after slaughter at late dioestrus, prooestrus, oestrus, early dioestrus and dioestrus, were fixed, embedded in plastic resin and stained with toluidine blue. The surface and glandular epithelium as well as subepithelial and glandular connective tissue layers were examined by light microscopy (LM). The significantly highest surface and the glandular epithelium were observed at oestrus and dioestrus, respectively. The largest number of capillaries (underneath the surface epithelium) was found at oestrus. In the surface epithelium, the largest number of intraepithelial lymphocytes (IELs, round nucleus) was found at early dioestrus. The largest number of lymphocytes and macrophages within the glandular epithelium were found at early dioestrus and oestrus, respectively. In the subepithelial connective tissue layer, the most common type of leukocytes during all stages was the lymphocyte. The largest numbers of lymphocytes and neutrophils were found at oestrus while the largest number of eosinophils was found at dioestrus. The dominating cells of the immune system in the connective tissue of the glandular layer were lymphocytes and macrophages. The significantly largest numbers of lymphocytes and plasma cells were found at early dioestrus and dioestrus, respectively. The number of lymphocytes in the connective tissue of the glandular layer and the number of plasma cells in the subepithelial layer were positively correlated with the plasma level of progesterone (P < or = 0.05). The numbers of capillaries and neutrophils in the subepithelial layer underneath the surface epithelium as well as the number of macrophages in both surface and glandular epithelium were positively correlated with the plasma level of oestradiol-17beta (P < or = 0.05). In conclusion, the present study showed a variation om the infiltration and distrobution of lymphocytes, neutrophils, eosinophils, macrophages, mast cells, and plasma cells in the sow endometrium during different stages of the oestrous cycle. Also morphological parameters (e.g. height of surface and glandular epithelium, capillaries density and degree of oedema) varied throughout the oestrous cycle.
