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
Primary central nervous system lymphomas (PCNSLs) are extranodal variant forms of non-Hodgkin lymphoma arising within the brain parenchyma, leptomeninges, or spinal cord. PCNSL can present with varied neurological symptoms and imaging findings, making diagnosis without biopsy difficult. PCNSLs are highly aggressive, causing rapid deterioration, but are responsive to chemotherapy and radiotherapy making early diagnosis important. Crossed cerebellar diaschisis (CCD) is mostly seen with cerebral cortex vascular insults and is rarely reported with thalamic lesions and even rarer with thalamic lymphoma. However, CCD has also been described in other brain tumors (including primary glioma), chronic subdural hematoma, congenital insults, intracranial infections, and various dementia subtypes. We present a rare case of thalamic lymphoma evaluated with positron emission tomography/computed tomography that showed hypermetabolism of thalamus and associated hypometabolism in ipsilateral cerebral cortex and contralateral cerebellum representing CCD.
