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 stable dihydrate crystalline phase (DH) of erythromycin A loses water upon heating to give the anhydrous phase I (AI). Further heating then results in a polymorphic transformation via the amorphous state (melt) to give another anhydrous phase II (AII). The anhydrous phases of AI and AII undergo hydration when increasing the humidity. The crystals of AI showed stoichiometric hydration to give DH, whereas the crystals of AII showed nonstoichiometric hydration to give the humidity dependent nonstoichiometric hydrate phase (NSH). The crystal structures of AI and AII were directly determined from powder X-ray diffraction data using the direct space strategy for the structure solution followed by Rietveld refinement. From the structural properties of AI and AII, aspects of the mechanism of the solid-state transformations of DH and the hydration behavior of AI and AII have been determined, and the importance of the hydrophilicity of the voids has been revealed. © 2013 American Chemical Society.
