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
Lichen sclerosus et atrophicus (LSA) is an inflammatory dermatosis of unknown etiology, usually affecting the genital region, with extragenital involvement being uncommon. The coexistence of LSA and morphea in the same lesion is rare. The present study aims to demonstrate that LSA and morphea might share similar pathologic processes. We present a case of a 53-year-old female patient with extragenital lesions with clinical appearance and histopathological features of both LSA and morphea. Finally, the two diseases might lie on the same disease spectrum.
