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
Copy number variants (CNVs) are a source of genomic variation associated with altered phenotypes. Somatic copy number mosaicism results when different populations of cells in an individual differ due to de novo copy number changes (CNCs). Tissue-specific patterns of CNCs resulting in mosaicism have yet to be characterized in the mouse, an organism frequently used to model human diseases. Here, DNA was sampled from spleen, liver, and cerebellum of eight highly related mice selected from a familial unit. CNVs and CNCs were detected using the Mouse Diversity Genotyping Array with three computational methods (ConsecN, Partek, and PennCNV). Tissue-specific patterns of CNCs were revealed, including genomic regions of putative recurring CNCs. Genetic distance estimated using CNVs and CNCs recapitulated genealogical relationships. The novel framework can thus be used to identify and analyze tissue-specific CNCs, and the results establish the need to account for CNCs in model organisms.
