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
Introduction: The authors have recently tested a new electrodiagnostic technique for palmar proper digital nerves sensory nerve action potentials in normal controls. Here the authors explored whether it may offer additional information in comparison to mixed nerve wrist stimulation in a series of patients. Methods: The authors recorded palmar proper digital nerves sensory nerve action potential to selective antidromic webspace stimulation in a group of 19 patients with suspected lesions of median and ulnar nerve hand sensory branches. Coexistent carpal tunnel syndrome was present in 11 patients. Results: The webspace stimulation technique offered additional information in 89% patients when compared with mixed nerve wrist stimulation. Webspace stimulation was informative even when carpal tunnel syndrome coexisted with damage to hand sensory branches and biased the interpretation of conventional wrist nerve conduction study. Conclusions: Webspace PaPDN stimulation is feasible in patients with lesion of median and ulnar nerve hand sensory branches and offer additional information in comparison with wrist-mixed nerve conduction study, also in patients with coexisting carpal tunnel syndrome.
