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 describes a free-hand technique for percutaneous pancreatic biopsy in cattle with ultrasound-guidance using a 14G spinal biopsy needle. Its safety was evaluated based on 36 consecutive procedures. To assess the immediate effects of pancreatic biopsy, 31 cows were necropsied shortly after the procedure and examined. The remaining five cows were examined daily for eight days and then necropsied and examined. No life-threatening complications nor clinically detectable abnormalities were observed. Changes indicative of inflammation were not apparent in total and differential WBC counts or in total protein and fibrinogen concentrations. A small increase of amylase activity was detected in only one cow kept for the eight-day observation period. Serum lipase activity increased significantly on day four after biopsy. Urea nitrogen, creatinine, glucose and the activities of aspartate aminotransferase, alanine aminotransferase, and γ-glutamyltransferase remained within reference ranges. Changes in the peritoneum and pancreas observed at necropsy were negligible.
