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
This study was undertaken to elucidate whether eating a fermented milk containing Lactobacillus acidophilus La1 and bifidobacteria could induce changes in intestinal flora and modulate the immune response in man. Volunteers consumed a fermented milk containing L. acidophilus La1 and bifidobacteria over a period of three weeks during which an attenuated Salmonella typhi Ty21a was administered to mimic an enteropathogenic infection. A control group ate no fermented foods but received the S. typhi Ty21a. Faecal flora analyses showed an increase in L. acidophilus and bifidobacterial counts during fermented milk intake. The specific serum IgA titre rise to S. typhi Ty21a in the test group was > 4-fold and significantly higher (P = 0.04) than in the control group. An increase in total serum IgA was also observed. These results indicate that lactic acid bacteria which can persist in the gastrointestinal tract can act as adjuvants to the humoral immune response. © 1994.
