A case report of hemodialysis management of acute kidney injury in a Russell’s viper-envenomed dog

Veterinary Integrative Sciences
A four-year-old Russell’s viper-envenomed dog presented with severe azotemia and was diagnosed with acute kidney injury (AKI). Russell’s viper envenomation-induced AKI is highly fatal and medical treatment alone was insufficient.

VoIgt profile Parameter Estimation Routine (VIPER): H I photoionization rate at z<0.5 [PDF]

MNRAS, 467, 3172 (2017), 2016
We have developed a parallel code called "VoIgt profile Parameter Estimation Routine (VIPER)" for automatically fitting the H I Ly-$\alpha$ forest seen in the spectra of QSOs. We obtained the H I column density distribution function (CDDF) and line width ($b$) parameter distribution for $z < 0.45$ using spectra of 82 QSOs obtained using Cosmic Origins ...

Bilateral Simultaneous Optic Neuritis Following Envenomations by Indian Cobra and Common Krait

Toxins, 2022
In India, most snakebite envenomation (SBE) incidents are caused by the “Big Four” snakes which include Russell’s viper, common krait, Indian cobra, and saw-scaled viper.

The VIPERS Multi-Lambda Survey. I. UV and NIR Observations, multi-color catalogues and photometric redshifts [PDF]

A&A 590, A102 (2016), 2016
We present observations collected in the CFHTLS-VIPERS region in the ultraviolet (UV) with the GALEX satellite (far and near UV channels) and the near infrared with the CFHT/WIRCam camera ($K_s$-band) over an area of 22 and 27 deg$^2$, respectively. The depth of the photometry was optimized to measure the physical properties (e.g., SFR, stellar masses)

Plasmapheresis in a case of acute kidney injury with severe hemolysis and thrombocytopenia due to hematotoxic (Russell's viper) snake bite

Saudi Journal of Kidney Diseases and Transplantation, 2020
We present a case of a male patient after being bitten by a vasculotoxic snake (Russell’s viper) with severe hemolysis, thrombocytopenia, and acute kidney injury requiring hemodialysis.

The VIMOS Public Extragalactic Redshift Survey (VIPERS): PCA-based automatic cleaning and reconstruction of survey spectra [PDF]

A&A 600, A54 (2017), 2016
Identifying spurious reduction artefacts in galaxy spectra is a challenge for large surveys. We present an algorithm for identifying and repairing residual spurious features in sky-subtracted galaxy spectra with application to the VIPERS survey. The algorithm uses principal component analysis (PCA) applied to the galaxy spectra in the observed frame to

An in vivo examination of the differences between rapid cardiovascular collapse and prolonged hypotension induced by snake venom

Scientific Reports, 2019
We investigated the cardiovascular effects of venoms from seven medically important species of snakes: Australian Eastern Brown snake (Pseudonaja textilis), Sri Lankan Russell’s viper (Daboia russelii), Javanese Russell’s viper (D.

The VIMOS Public Extragalactic Redshift Survey (VIPERS). A Support Vector Machine classification of galaxies, stars and AGNs [PDF]

A&A 557, A16 (2013), 2013
The aim of this work is to develop a comprehensive method for classifying sources in large sky surveys and we apply the techniques to the VIMOS Public Extragalactic Redshift Survey (VIPERS). Using the optical (u*, g', r', i') and NIR data (z', Ks), we develop a classifier, based on broad-band photometry, for identifying stars, AGNs and galaxies ...

An In‐Depth Analysis and Classification of Placental Causes of Stillbirth: A 10‐Year Retrospective Study of a Regional Stillbirth Registry

BJOG: An International Journal of Obstetrics &Gynaecology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Abnormal placental lesions are commonly identified in stillbirth. Interpreting these lesions and their contribution to fetal demise presents significant challenges. Recommended CODAC classification does not include detailed placental examination results.

The Procoagulant Snake Venom Serine Protease Potentially Having a Dual, Blood Coagulation Factor V and X-Activating Activity

Toxins, 2020
A procoagulant snake venom serine protease was isolated from the venom of the nose-horned viper (Vipera ammodytes ammodytes). This 34 kDa glycoprotein, termed VaaSP-VX, possesses five kDa N-linked carbohydrates.
