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.

Conference Paper Description
The glial-lymphatic system (glymphatic system) is a recently characterized fluid clearance pathway of the central nervous system. Glymphatic system disfunctions leading to defects in drainage of the cerebrospinal fluid have been associated with several neurological disorders. In their article, J. S. Generoso, S. Thorsdottir, A. Collodel, R. R. E. Santo, et al. (mBio 13:e01886-22, 2022, https://doi.org/10.1128/mBio.01886-22) have now associated impaired glymphatic system functionality to neurological sequelae of murine meningitis caused by Streptococcus pneumoniae. Their work provides an initial and important step into the systematic evaluation of a potential impact of glymphatic system functionality on disease severity and sequelae in meningitis.
