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
Familial juvenile hyperuricemic nephropathy (FJHN), characterized by early-onset hyperuricemia, reduced fractional excretion of uric acid, and chronic renal failure is caused due to mutation in uromodulin (UMOD) gene. We identified a novel mutation in a family with multiple members affected with FJHN. Ten coding exons of UMOD gene in three family members with clinical and biochemical features of FJHN and one unaffected family member were sequenced, and sequence variants were analyzed for the pathogenicity by bioinformatics studies. A heterozygous novel missense mutation (c. 949 T >G) in exon 5 leading to the replacement of cysteine by glycine at position 317 was identified in all three affected family members. This mutation has not been reported earlier in Human Gene Mutation Database, Human Genome Variation, Clinvar, and 1000 Genome. The mutation lies in the cysteine-rich 2 domain of the protein, and the affected residue is evolutionary conserved in other species. To our knowledge, this is the first report of the identification of UMOD mutation in an Indian family.
