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
Pseudomonas aeruginosa is an opportunistic pathogen that can cause infections in humans, especially in hospital patients with compromised host defence mechanisms, including patients with cystic fibrosis. Filamentous bacteriophages represent a group of single-stranded DNA viruses infecting different bacteria, including P. aeruginosa and other human and animal pathogens; many of them can replicate when integrated into the bacterial chromosome. Filamentous bacteriophages can contribute to the virulence of P. aeruginosa and influence the course of the disease. There are just a few isolated and officially classified filamentous bacteriophages infecting P. aeruginosa, but genomic studies indicated the frequent occurrence of integrated prophages in many P. aeruginosa genomes. An analysis of sequenced genomes of P. aeruginosa isolated from upper respiratory tract (throat and nasal swabs) and sputum specimens collected from Russian patients with cystic fibrosis indicated a higher diversity of filamentous bacteriophages than first thought. A detailed analysis of predicted bacterial proteins revealed prophage regions representing the filamentous phages known to be quite distantly related to known phages. Genomic comparisons and phylogenetic studies enabled the proposal of several new taxonomic groups of filamentous bacteriophages.
