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
DNA histograms of skin and blood specimens from 64 patients with known or suspected cutaneous T‐cell lymphoma (CTCL) have been examined and compared with normal blood mononuclear cells and skin biopsy samples from 50 patients with various benign cutaneous conditions (i.e. patch test infiltrates, eczema, psoriasis, lichen planus, atopic dermatitis) in an attempt to establish whether DNA measurements by flow cytorntry may improve the early recognition of CTCL. The results indicate that right‐skewed G0/G1 peaks are seen frequently in both benign disorders and known and suspected CTCL. Such peaks may reflect increased stainability of DNA due to chromatin dispersion during cell activation and/or cell proliferation and do not constitute reliable evidence of malignancy. In contrast, discrete aneuploid DNA peaks are confined to malignant lesions, but are seen almost exclusively in the advanced stages in which the diagnosis can be establignohed easily based on routine histological criteria. These data indicate that DNA measurements by flow cytometry is of only limited help in the early recognition of CTCL and support the view that the lymphoid infiltrate in early CTCL may be reactive (rather than neoplastic) or alternatively may contain only minor populations of abnormal (malignant) cells which cannot be detected by currently available DNA measurement techniques.
