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
IgG4-related disease is a rare chronic pathology manifested by lymphoplasmacytic infiltration of one or more organs, the formation of storiform fibrosis, tissue edema, and an increase of IgG4 in the blood. This disease was singled out as an independent nosological unit only in 2001. The incidence is less than 1 in 100, 000 people per year. Almost any organ can be affected in IgG4-related disease. The association of Riedel's thyroiditis with IgG4 was established in 2010. Riedel's thyroiditis is an extremely rare inflammatory disease of the thyroid gland, which diagnosis is complicated by an atypical course and the absence of characteristic symptoms. Less than 300 clinical cases of the disease have been described in the world, only two from them were in children. This article presents a clinical case of a 6-year-old boy with Riedel's thyroiditis.
