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
Background: Several diseases can produce enlargement of salivary glands and the fine-needle aspiration biopsy (FNAB) helps establishing a diagnosis. Methods: A retrospective study was conducted, in which the interpretation of 383 of salivary gland FNAB studies was evaluated, with the histopathological findings of the follow-up biopsies performed from 2009 to 2016, at Hospital General de México "Dr. Eduardo Liceaga." The presence or absence of malignant neoplasm in the surgical specimens (gold standard) was considered as a positivity parameter. Results: To detect malignancy, a sensitivity ratio of 62.5%, specificity of 98%, positive predictive value of 90.9%, and negative predictive value of 90.1% were obtained with diagnostic accuracy of 90.2% of the salivary gland FNAB. Adenoid cystic carcinoma was the most frequent cytological interpretation of a specific malignant neoplasm and pleomorphic adenoma of a benign neoplasm. Conclusions: Salivary gland FNAB provides accurate and useful information about the type of pathology, which allows for better management of patients. Our results are similar to the parameters established in literature.
