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 dichloromethane extract of the air-dried leaves of Ardisia cf. elliptica (subgenus Tinus) afforded a mixture of bauerenol (1a), α-amyrin (1b) and α-amyrin (1c). Their structures were identified by NMR spectroscopy. The mixtures of triterpenes (1a-1c) at ratios of 2:2:1 and 1:1:1 were tested for their analgesic property using the hot plate, tail flick and acetic acid-induced writhing assays. Results from the hot plate assay indicate that 5, 10, and 50 mg kg-1 body weight (BW) of 1a-1c (2:2:1) had analgesic activity comparable to the positive drug control (Diclofenac) at 75 min. Both ratios of 1a-1c were found not effective in the tail flick assay. The mixture (2:2:1) was found most effective in the acetic acid writhing assay. Reduced analgesic activity however was observed in the other mixture (1:1:1).
