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
The effects of kindled seizures elicited from sites in the left and right temporal lobes on mitogen-induced proliferation (LPS, Con A, PHA) and induction of representative TH1 (IFN-γ) and TH2 (IL-10, IL-4) cytokines were determined in activated rat splenocytes. With reference to cell proliferation, the changes depended on the hemispheric side and location of kindling. Kindling of the left side mediated significant increase in cell proliferation by LPS. Left side kindling resulted in decreased cell proliferation by PHA. Although right side kindling showed no change when taken together, further analysis showed that the reduced proliferation byPHAwas mediated when the pyriform cortex was kindled with no change from amygdaloid nuclei. Similar hemispheric polarization was observed in the production of IL-10 and IFN-γ by Con A-stimulated splenocytes in left side kindled rats. Hence, kindled temporal lobe seizures induced changes in specific immune functions. These effects are not only lateralized but are also specific with respect to the particular region kindled. Since epileptic patients have altered immune functions, this report contributes to our understanding of this complex immune-brain cross-talk in epilepsy.
