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.

Fukuoka University Reports Findings in Alkaptonuria (Arthroscopic ankle arthrodesis in two alkaptonuria patients)
2023 NOV 02 (NewsRx) -- By a News Reporter-Staff News Editor at Japan Daily Report -- New research on Nutritional and Metabolic Diseases and Conditions
Article Description
Alkaptonuria is a very rare disorder in which homogentisic acid accumulates due to a deficiency in the activity of homogentisic acid 1,2 dioxygenase. This deficiency results in deposition of a yellowish-brown pigment in connective tissue. Such deposition is termed € ochronosis' and leads to deterioration in the formation and structure of proteoglycans in hyaline cartilage. These actions lead to fragmentation and rapid destructive arthritis. Often, ochronotic arthritis appears at 40-60 years of age, and many patients are treated symptomatically. Here, we report two patients (three ankles) with ochronotic arthritis who were treated with ankle arthrodesis. In all cases, the postoperative clinical score improved, but the time needed for fusion was prolonged and symptomatic subtalar arthropathy developed in the early postoperative period.
