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
Atherosclerotic renal artery disease is common among patients with hypertension over the age 50 years who are resistant to medical treatment. In this case report, the authors present a 55-year-old woman with unilateral renal artery stenosis with a history of cardiac arrest. QT prolongation and evident hypokalemia were the main clinical findings of the patient. The patient also had an episode of polymorphic ventricular tachycardia during hospitalization that degenerated into ventricular fibrillation. After successful balloon dilation of the stenotic renal artery, the patient stayed normotensive and normokalemic without medication, and no arrhythmia was observed during the 6-month follow-up period.
