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
A 37-year-old man lost consciousness suddenly due to ventricular fibrillation (VF). After cardioversion, twelve-lead ECG showed a pattern characteristic of type 1 Brugada. An implantable cardioverter defibrillator (ICD) was implanted for Brugada syndrome. In the following three years, VF occurred eight times after consumption of alcohol. Association between the Brugada syndrome and alcohol consumption has rarely been reported. Recently, it was reported that alcohol has inhibitory effect on single cardiac sodium channel gating and it may be that alcohol acted as a sodium channel blocker in this patient. Here we report a case of alcohol-induced VF in Brugada syndrome.
