Proteomic Analysis, Immuno-Specificity and Neutralization Efficacy of Pakistani Viper Antivenom (PVAV), a Bivalent Anti-Viperid Antivenom Produced in Pakistan

Toxins, 2023
Snakebite envenoming is a neglected tropical disease prevalent in South Asia. In Pakistan, antivenoms are commonly imported from India despite the controversy over their effectiveness.

Functional Assessment of Platelet‐Derived Phospholipid Activity in Pooled Normal Plasmas by Low‐Phospholipid Thrombin Generation Assay and Its Impact on Lupus Anticoagulant Mixing Tests

International Journal of Laboratory Hematology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Pooled normal plasma (PNP) used for lupus anticoagulant (LA) mixing tests may carry platelet‐derived phospholipid (PL) activity introduced during freezing/lyophilization, potentially attenuating LA‐mediated prolongation of clotting times.

Identifying key factors contributing to treatment costs for snakebite envenoming in private tertiary healthcare settings in Tamil Nadu, India.

PLoS Neglected Tropical Diseases, 2023
BackgroundIndia suffers ~58,000 annual deaths due to snakebites. The 'Big Four' snakes (Russell's viper, Indian cobra, common krait, and saw-scaled viper) that are responsible for most bites cause diverse clinical effects. Delayed treatment increases the

Design and Implementation of an Automated Interpretation Algorithm for Lupus Anticoagulant Functional Testing

International Journal of Laboratory Hematology, Volume 48, Issue 5, Page 1181-1188, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Introduction Lupus anticoagulant (LA) testing is essential, albeit complex, in the laboratory diagnosis of antiphospholipid syndrome (APS). Given the multi‐step workflow and the variability introduced by anticoagulant therapy, reagent differences, and interpretive approaches, result interpretation requires expert evaluation.

Preliminary Evaluation of a Novel Lupus Anticoagulant Activity Assay Unaffected by Anticoagulants

Journal of Clinical Laboratory Analysis, Volume 40, Issue 15, August 2026.
A novel one‐step lupus anticoagulant (LA) assay based on the LA‐sensitivity ratio (LA‐SR) was developed to simplify diagnostic testing and reduce potential interference from anticoagulants. The LA‐SR method showed good agreement with guideline‐based LA testing (dRVVT and/or LA‐sensitive APTT) for the detection of LA and demonstrated limited influence ...

Utility of clot waveform analysis in Russell's viper bite victims with hematotoxicity

Journal of Emergencies, Trauma and Shock, 2018
Introduction: In Russell's viper bites, due to the lack of a better alternative, whole blood clotting test (WBCT) remains the standard test even though its reliability and sensitivity has been shown to be low. Activated partial thromboplastin time (aPTT)-

Severe Pediatric Snakebite With Coagulopathy and Compartment Syndrome: Conservative Management With Plasma Exchange

Clinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 7, July 2026.
Therapeutic plasma exchange was successfully used in a child with severe snakebite envenomation complicated by refractory venom‐induced consumptive coagulopathy and suspected compartment syndrome, leading to full recovery and avoidance of surgical intervention.

Fall and Spring Staging in a Refugia‐Dependent Migratory Snake

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 7, July 2026.
Animals reliant on seasonal refugia face strong fitness constraints imposed by the timing of migration relative to thermally unpredictable seasonal transitions. Using Timber Rattlesnakes (Crotalus horridus), we show that prolonged fall and spring staging periods characterized by restricted movements near refugia and distinct thermal thresholds function
