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
Objective: We aimed to study the genotoxic effects in traffic police who are occupationally exposed due to higher free radical generation. Methods: Ambient and breathing zone air samples were analyzed blood samples were collected for analysis of antioxidant enzymes Superoxide Dismutase (SOD), Glutathione Peroxidase (GPx) and free radicals-nitric oxide (NO) and malondialdehyde (MDA) levels using a spectrophotometer. DNA damage was measured with the comet assay. Results: Higher levels of benzene (BZ), toluene (TOL), carbon monoxide (CO), benzo([a])pyrene (BaP) and sulfur dioxide (SO2) was observed in traffic police. Elevated levels of NO, MDA and comet tail length and lower SOD and GPx levels observed in traffic police. Conclusion: The studied biomarkers, related to oxidative stress and DNA damage positively correlated in traffic police exposed to environmental air pollutants. © 2013 Informa UK Ltd.
