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 authors have observed a case of gold-induced severe aplastic anemia in which a complete reponse to immuno-suppressive treatment (high dose bolus 6-methylprednisolone) was obtained. The observation suggests that bolus 6-methylprednisolone is able to induce medullary autologous reconstitution in gold-induced severe aplastic anemia. The authors discuss the mechanism of myelotoxicity and the indications for immunosuppressive treatment. This case emphasizes the probable immune-mediated pathogenesis of gold-induced aplastic anemia.
