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.

Article Description
Dialyser bioincompatibility is an important factor contributing to complications of hemodialysis with well known systemic consequences. Here we studied the local processes that occur on dialysis membranes by eluting proteins adsorbed to the polysulfone dialyser membranes of 5 patients after 3 consecutive routine maintenance hemodialysis sessions. At the end of each procedure, a plasma sample was also collected. These eluates and their accompanying plasma samples were separated by 2-dimensional gel electrophoresis; all proteins that were present in all patients were analyzed by tandem mass spectrometry; and a ratio of the relative spot intensity of the eluate to plasma was calculated. Of 153 proteins detected, 84 were found in all patients, 57 of which were successfully identified by mass spectrometry as 38 components of 23 unique proteins. In 10 spots the relative eluate intensity differed significantly from that in the plasma, implying preferential adsorption. These proteins included ficolin-2, clusterin, complement C3c fragment, and apolipoprotein A1. Our finding of a selective binding of ficolin-2 to polysulfone membranes suggests a possible role of the lectin complement pathway in blood-dialyser interactions.
