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
IgG4-related disease (IgG4-RD) is a systemic disease, mostly affecting the pancreas. It presents as accumulation of IgG4-producing plasma cells in various tissues. Other possible affected organs include the lacrimal glands, salivary glands, lungs, kidneys, liver, bile duct, retroperitoneum, breast, aorta, pituitary gland and prostate. A cutaneous presentation has also been described in the literature, and might be the initial presenting feature of IgG4-RD. We describe a 73-year-old white man who presented with two infiltrated, erythematous nodules on his abdomen. The histopathological characteristics were highly suggestive of IgG4-related cutaneous disease. Immunohistochemical stains were positive for IgG4. In the past, the patient's other organs had also been affected by IgG4-RD. Cutaneous presentation of IgG4-RD has been described previously in the literature but only in Asian patients (both East and South Asian). We also provide an overview of previously reported cutaneous manifestations of IgG4-RD. © 2014 British Association of Dermatologists.
