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
The medulla of the chick thymus contains variable numbers of intercellular and intracellular cysts. The epithelium varies from squamous to columnar or stratified and contains cystic, endocrine-like, and lymphoid cells. The lumen-lining cystic cells contain microvilli, moderately developed rough- and smooth-surfaced endoplasmic reticulum, and Golgi complex. Mitochondria, free ribosomes, and varying number of microfilaments are observed. Endocrine-like cells are separated from the lumen by the cystic cells, which in places are extremely attenuated. The cytoplasm is characterized by the presence of membrane-limited secretory granules. Cleft-like spaces, partially lined by microvilli, are also encountered. Numerous vesicles, some in tight association with the core rootlets, are evident. Cystic cells with single or multiple cysts, lined with microvilli, are also observed. The lumina of these cystic elements contain flocculent or dense granular material, amorphous masses, cellular elements, or debris. Morphological evidence suggests synthetic and secretory activities of the cystic cells in the young chicks.
