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
Metastasis to neck lymph nodes is often the presenting symptom of occult head and neck tumors, including undifferentiated nasopharyngeal carcinoma (UNPC). The diagnosis of the primary site of the tumor by conventional cytological analysis of tissue obtained by fine-needle aspiration (FNA) may be difficult. As Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) infection is consistently associated with UNPC, we evaluated the diagnostic significance of EBV detection using a nonradioisotopic in situ hybridization assay. The data obtained by FN A from metastatic head and neck tumors was correlated with the histology of the corresponding surgical specimens. In a series of 25 FN A specimens of cervical lymph node metastases of tumors of unknown origin, EBV was found expressed in all seven metastases of UNPC but in none of 18 metastases of tumors of different types. Therefore, detection of EBV in cervical metastatic adenopathy may be successfully used to identify the presence of occult UNPC. © 1994 Raven Press. Ltd.
