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
Glomerular filtration apparatus (GFA) regulates the glomerular permselectivity and ultrafiltration of urine. Podocytes are specialized cells and a key component of the GFA. The mechanism by which the integrity of the GFA is compromised and manifest in proteinuria during ischemic stroke remains enigmatic. Hypoxia is a determining factor in the pathophysiology of ischemia. We investigated the mechanism of ischemic-hypoxia induced proteinuria in a middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO) model. Ischemic hypoxia resulted in the accumulation of HIF1α in the glomerular podocytes that resulted in the increased expression of ZEB2. ZEB2, in turn, induced TRPC6 (transient receptor potential cation channel, subfamily C, member 6), which has increased selectivity for calcium. Elevated expression of TRPC6 elicited increased calcium influx and aberrant activation of focal adhesion kinase (FAK) in podocytes. FAK activation resulted in the stress fibers reorganization and podocyte foot process effacement. Our study suggests overactive HIF1α/ZEB2 axis during ischemic-hypoxia induces intracellular calcium levels via TRPC6 and consequently altered podocyte integrity and permselectivity.
