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
We herein report a 20-year-old woman who developed eosinophilic granulomatosis with polyangiitis (EGPA) and portal vein thrombosis (PVT). EGPA was diagnosed based on the patient’s history of asthma, hypereosinophilia, and mononeuritis complex. Thrombocytopenia and liver dysfunction were observed, necessitating contrast-enhanced computed tomography (CECT), which revealed PVT. Her symptoms soon improved with glucocorticoids and anticoagulation therapy. As patients with EGPA often suffer from asthma, they can be hesitant to undergo CECT. However, if patients with EGPA show uncertain thrombocytopenia with liver dysfunction, a further evaluation using CECT is warranted to detect PVT.
