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
Tuberculosis has been called the 'great mimic.' We present an uncommon case of an en plaque dural tuberculoma in an adolescent that was both causing mass effect intracranially and eroding the skull and extending extracranially mimicking an aggressive meningioma and discuss the theories about the origin of dural tuberculomas, enumerate common radiological differential diagnosis and mention ways that may help to identify the disease without recourse to surgery.
