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.

Article Description
This study deals with the postmortem findings in cases of lethal hypoglycaemia due to injections of insulin. In 12 cases (four female; eight male; mean age 42 years) the following aspects were evaluated retrospectively: circumstances of life, scene of death, pathomorphological findings and postmortem biochemistry on cerebrospinal fluid, vitreous humour, blood, and urine (levels of glucose, lactate, hemoglobin A 1c and insulin). Furthermore, analyses of ethanol in blood and urine as well as toxicological and histological examinations were performed. Unexpectedly, the dead persons rarely represented diabetics, relatives of diabetics, or medical personnel. It is concluded, that the diagnosis of fatal hypoglycaemia can only be established by a synopsis of postmortem biochemistry, pathomorphological alterations and anamnesis. Besides, this diagnosis must always be made “per exclusionem”.
