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
The incidence of Epstein-Barr virus (EBV)associated lymphoproliferative disorders has increased with greater use of immunomodulatory therapies. We present a woman who developed subacute cognitive decline and unilateral weakness while taking long-term mycophenolate mofetil for granulomatosis with polyangiitis; her postmortem brain histopathology confirmed an EBV-driven lymphoproliferative disorder. Clinicians must have a high index of suspicion for EBV-driven lymphoma in people taking long-term immunosuppression who develop new neurological problems. We review the role of mycophenolate mofetil in EBV-driven lymphoproliferative disorders, and discuss checking EBV status in all patients starting immunosuppression and in older people already taking immunosuppression.
