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.

Findings from Deyang People's Hospital Provide New Insights into Pulmonary Sarcoidosis (Three-year delay in diagnosis of pulmonary sarcoidosis due to presence of necrotizing granulomas: a cautionary case report)

Article Description
Diagnosis of pulmonary sarcoidosis can be difficult and strongly dependent on clinical experience, especially when necrotizing granulomas are present. Here we report an individual who, 3 years after onset of symptoms, was definitively diagnosed with pulmonary sarcoidosis based on percutaneous lung biopsy under the guidance of computed tomography, after he failed to receive a specific diagnosis at other tertiary hospitals based on cervical lymph node biopsy and transbronchial needle aspiration under the guidance of endobronchial ultrasonography. After his definitive diagnosis at our medical center, he was given corticosteroids, which led to remission. Clinicians, especially in areas lacking suitably experienced pathologists, should be aware of how to diagnose sarcoidosis in the presence of abundant necrotizing granulomas in order to ensure timely diagnosis.
