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
Smith-Lemli-Opitz syndrome (SLOS) is an autosomal recessive multiple malformation and intellectual disability syndrome. SLOS is caused by DHCR7 mutations in the gene encoding for the delta 7 steroid reductase enzyme that converts 7-dehydrocholesterol to cholesterol. An 11-month-old boy was admitted to our clinic for failure to thrive, vomiting and ambiguous genitalia. SLOS was considered in the differential diagnosis due to clinical features and low serum cholesterol levels. Sequencing analysis of the DHCR7 gene showed a homozygous p.R352Q (c.1055 G>A) mutation in the patient. SLOS should be taken into consideration in cases with multiple congenital anomalies, ambiguous genitalia, and mental retardation combined with low cholesterol levels. © 2013 by Erciyes University School of Medicine.
