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
IgG4-related disease (IgG4-RD) is an immune-mediated multi-system disorder. The nervous system (IgG4-RND) is rarely affected. We describe a short case series. We performed an ambispective analysis of IgG4-RND patients admitted at our centre between January 2016 and December 2022. Eight patients (M: F-2:6) were included with a mean age at presentation of 40.63 ± 17.88 years and disease duration of 5.16 ± 4.08 years. The common diseased sites were pachymeninges (7), orbits (4), paranasal sinuses (3), frontal lobe (1), hypophysis (1), leptomeninges (1), and middle ear (1). Common symptoms were headache and cranial neuropathy. The common nerves involved were the optic nerve, followed by the third, fifth, sixth, and seventh. Cerebrospinal fluid showed lymphocytic pleocytosis. Histopathology showed lymphoplasmacytic infiltrate (8), fibrosis (5), >10 IgG4 + cells (7), and IgG4/IgG >40% (6). Six had a relapsing course. The rituximab-based treatment regimen showed a favourable response.
