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 purpose of this study was to evaluate the clinicopathological features of different degrees of extraglomerular renal vascular lesions (RVLs) in patients with anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic antibody (ANCA)-associated renal vasculitis and explore their clinical determinants. This is a retrospective study of 186 patients with ANCA-associated renal vasculitis diagnosed at the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University from January 2014 to April 2019. The patients who met the inclusion criteria were divided into non-renal RVLs, mild RVLs, moderate RVLs, and severe RVLs. It was found that there were significant differences in serum creatinine (SCR), estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR), erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR), high-density lipoprotein (HDL), systolic blood pressure (SBP), the prevalence rate of hypertension, the proportion of normal glomeruli, and the proportion of sclerotic glomeruli and interstitial fibrosis integral. SCR and ESR are independent risk factors for RVLs. The participants were followed up for 1 year, and the progression to end-stage renal disease (ESRD) and death was defined as endpoint events. We found that the survival rate of patients without RVLs was significantly higher than that of patients with RVLs and that the RVLs were an independent risk factor for ESRD or death. Early intervention in the progression of RVLs can improve the prognosis.
