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
Prognostic factors of juvenile myelomonocytic leukemia (JMML) have not been clarified because of its very low incidence and inaccuracy in the diagnosis. The purpose of this study was to evaluate children with JMML given an allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (SCT) and the role of different variables potentially influencing outcome in a nationwide survey in Japan based on the newly proposed criteria by the International JMML Working Group. The study patients were 27 children who underwent SCT among 55 JMML patients retrospectively collected in the survey. The source of grafts was HLA-identical siblings in 12 cases, HLA-matched unrelated individuals in 10 and others in five. Total body irradiation was used in 18 cases. Event-free and overall survival (OS) at 4 years after SCT were 54.2 ± 11.2% (s.e.) and 57.9 ± 11.0% (s.e.), respectively. Six patients died of relapse and three of complications. Patients with abnormal karyotypes showed a significantly lower OS than those with normal karyotypes (P < 0.001). Patients below 1 year of age showed a significantly higher OS than those of 1 year of age or more (P = 0.02). Patients with grade 0-1 acute graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) or chronic GVHD had a more favorable OS than those without them, although they were not statistically significant (P > 0.05). Other variables studied were not associated with OS. A multivariate analysis of these factors yielded the abnormal karyotype as the only significant risk factor for lower OS (risk ratio: 11.0; 95% Cl: 2.7-45.1).
