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.

Letter Description
We present the case of a 78-year-old man with dyslipidemia with ongoing treatment with statins. He was admitted for a history of 3-month dysphagia and weight loss. The physical exam was unremarkable. Blood tests revealed anemia (hemoglobin 11,5 g/dL). Gastroscopy showed a partially stenotic bulging ulcer in the middle esophagus, with a fibrinous base and residual clot Histopathology ruled out any malignancy and confirmed the presence of transmural necrosis with infiltration of inflammatory cells. Computed tomography (CT) revealed a 11x11x12 cm thoracic aortic aneurysm, with an intramural 4 cm thrombus in the anterolateral wall. The patient was referred for urgent Vascular Surgery, but unfortunately, he presented massive hematemesis with cardiorespiratory arrest, and despite cardiopulmonary resuscitation, he died.
