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
The vascularization of cervix cancer was studied by colpophotography. Assessment of the oxygenation of the tumour surface, using the intercapillary distance as parameter, revealed a gradual decrease in the oxygenation with advancing stage of the disease. This observation was confirmed by direct measurements of the tissue oxygen tension with an open-ended polarographic microelectrode. In invasive carcinoma of the cervix, hypoxic and anoxic foci were frequently encountered. The critical intercapillary idstance seemed to be approximately 350 μ since in cases with greater intercapillary distance the incidence of superficial necrosis rose rapidly. In 51 cases with a largest measured intercapillary distance of more than 400 μ local recurrence was found in 51.0 per cent during 5 years of follow-up, as compared to 16.7 per cent in 54 cases with intercapillary distance below 400 μ Out of 10 cases with a lowest observed tumour PO from zero to 9 mm Hg, 6 had local recurrences in the course of 4 years, as compared to 4 recurrences among 21 cases with a lowest observed tumor PO above 10 mm Hg. © 1968 Informa UK Ltd All rights reserved: reproduction in whole or part not permitted.
