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

open access: yesInternational Journal of Laboratory Hematology, EarlyView.
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.

On the importance of shelter availability for reptiles provided by burrow‐digging ecosystem engineers: A systematic review and a case study

open access: yesJournal of Zoology, EarlyView.
In this article, we show that ground burrows influenced reptile populations inconsistently across both the 5‐year field study in the Kiskunság and the broader systematic review, which together revealed positive, negative, and neutral effects across species and habitat types.

Looking for trouble: A common threat‐detection mechanism underlying pain, fear, and anxiety

open access: yesMind &Language, EarlyView.
I put forward a novel cognitive architecture for pain, fear, and anxiety, according to which these three capacities are underpinned by a common threat‐detection mechanism. This mechanism takes information about potential threats as input, assesses whether the threat is actual and, if it deems it is, outputs a threat representation.

Inflammation Induced by Platelet-Activating Viperid Snake Venoms: Perspectives on Thromboinflammation

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2019
Envenomation by viperid snakes is characterized by systemic thrombotic syndrome and prominent local inflammation. To date, the mechanisms underlying inflammation and blood coagulation induced by Viperidae venoms have been viewed as distinct processes ...

Neotropical Snakes Reveal Different Geological Times for Dispersal Corridors Between Amazon and Atlantic Forests

open access: yesZoologica Scripta, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Three forested dispersal corridors have been proposed within the diagonal of open/dry landscapes in South America and the relative importance of each one has been the subject of debate for forest organisms. We analysed the biogeographical history of three snake genera (Bothrops, Philodryas, and Micrurus) from different families (Viperidae ...
