Metric Options: Counts1 Year3 YearSelecting 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 paper presents results showing differential response to paraquat toxicity in Wistar rats and Swiss strain of mice. Paraquat-induced pulmonary biochemical responses in the two animal species were studied at different time point after giving a single intraperitoneal injection of the respective LD 10 doses of the herbicide paraquat to rats and mice. Paraquat induced different biochemical responses including different protective responses in the two animal species. As a protective response, NADPH-specific quinone reductase is induced in rats, while catalase is induced in mice. It is implied that an early induction of catalase in mice as opposed to rats may account for the resistance of Swiss mice to paraquat toxicity. Xanthine oxidase, which was induced in rats, remains unaffected in mice indicating that the enzyme contributes to paraquat toxicity only in Wistar rats. Time-course studies were also conducted to compare the differential responses of antioxidant enzymes and lipid peroxidation between the two species. The results of the study led us to suggest that the manifestation of paraquat toxicity involve distinct differences in early pulmonary biochemical responses in Wistar rats and Swiss mice.
