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
The expression of myelomonocytic (My+) associated antigens on lymphocytes from B-chronic lymphocytic leukemia (B-CLL) was studied in 62 patients. Most of them expressed at least a My antigen: CD11b in 40 cases (64.2%), CD13 in 31 (50%), CD14 in 18 (29%), CD33 in 41 (66%), CD36 in 6 (9.6%). The relationship between the clinical features of the disease and My antigen status was studied. No significant correlation was found between Rai's clinical stages and the average percent value of CD11b, CD13, CD33 and CD36. In contrast, patients in Rai's stage 0 had a significant lower value of CD14 positive cells than those with more advanced disease (P < 0.001). Interestingly, patients with a diffuse bone marrow histology had a higher average percent value of CD33-positive cells (76.3% ± 29.3) than those with a non-diffuse one (50.4% ± 37.5). Furthermore, 90% of My patients fulfilled Montserrat's criteria of "smouldering" CLL while only 48.3% of My cases did (P < 002). My lineage antigens on B-CLL cells may provide another criterion to characterize patient subgroups with a poor prognosis. © 1991 Informa UK Ltd All rights reserved: reproduction in whole or part not permitted.
