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.

Review Description
1. The possible role of the ventral tegmental area (VTA) and its dopaminergic projections in cardiovascular regulation is reviewed. 2. Our own work has shown that stimulation of the VTA by local microinjection of the substance P analogue DiMe-C7 caused an increase in blood pressure. The mechanism of the pressor response was an interaction of central dopaminergic activation, most likely at the level of the baroreflex, with the circulatory actions of vasopressin. 3. These findings are important for a possible role of the mesolimbic dopamine system in cardiovascular homeostasis. Several studies reviewed here show that neuronal activity of the VTA and its mesolimbic projections is altered by changes in blood pressure, salt and electrolyte balance, stress and food and water intake. 4. The VTA and mesolimbic dopamine system, while playing a widely accepted role in locomotor activity, cognition and reward mechanisms, may also be involved in the integration of sensory and behavioural information with cardiovascular homeostasis.
