HANDLING OF TOBACCO DUST MAY CAUSE GENOTOXICITY IN BIDI ROLLERS
Bidi is a cheap Indian alternative to cigarette . Bidi rolling is a common cottage industry in which poor women work, mostly in inadequately ventilated conditions. The study explains the genotoxicity in bidi rollers occupationally exposed to tobacco dust. The chromosome aberrations and comet lengths in blood cells of rollers were found to be significantly higher than controls and the increase was proportional to the duration of exposure.

ELEVATED INTRAVITREAL IL-1BETA AND IL-10 LEVELS IN PDR
In order to determine the roles of IL-1beta and IL-10 in the vitreous of PDR, we measured IL-1beta and IL-10 concentration by ELISA. We found vitreous levels of IL-1beta and IL-10 were upregulated in PDR patients, and these two cytokines play roles in regulating the development and progression of PDR.
