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
The mean age of onset of cluster headache (CH) is in the late third decade. Only few cases of childhood-onset (< 14 years) CH have been reported in the literature. We report the case of an 11-year-old boy who suffered from sudden attacks of shock-like, intense pain, localized in the right orbital region, with associated photophobia, phono-phobia, conjunctival injection, lacrimation, nasal congestion, rhinorrhoea and psychomotor agitation. The episodes lasted 60-180 min, and the headache frequency was one to three per day. Physical and neurological examinations, magnetic resonance imaging and blood examinations were normal. The first bout lasted 8 months. Attacks were resistant to every symptomatic and partially to prophylactic treatment that has been tried. The second bout lasted approximately 2 months. © International Headache Society 2010.
