Early identification of acute kidney injury in Russell's viper (Daboia russelii) envenoming using renal biomarkers

Ratnayake, I.; Mohamed, F.; Buckley, N.A.; Gawarammana, I.B.; Dissanayake, D.M.; Chathuranga, U.; Munasinghe, M.; Maduwage, K.; Jayamanne, S.; Endre, Z.H.; Isbister, G.K. (Public Library of Science, 2019)

BACKGROUND: Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a major complication of snake envenoming, but early diagnosis remains problematic. We aimed to investigate the time course of novel renal biomarkers in AKI following Russell's viper ...
Glycaemic control and avenues for improvement among people with type 2 diabetes mellitus from rural Sri Lanka – a retrospective cohort study

Mettananda, C.; Chathuranga, U.; Rathnayake, T.; Luke, N.; Meegodavidanage, N. (Elsevier, 2023)

BACKGROUND The majority of Sri Lankans and South Asians are rural dwellers but follow-up data on glycaemic control and its associations in rural communities are sparse. We followed up a cohort of hospital-based rural Sri ...
Mechanism-specific injury biomarkers predict nephrotoxicity early following glyphosate surfactant herbicide (GPSH) poisoning

Mohamed, F.; Endre, Z.H.; Pickering, J.W.; Jayamanne, S.; Palangasinghe, C.; Shahmy, S.; Chathuranga, U.; Wijerathne, T.; Shihana, F.; Gawarammana, I.; Buckley, N.A. (Elsevier, 2016)

Acute kidney injury (AKI) is common following glyphosate surfactant herbicide (GPSH) self-poisoning. Serum creatinine (sCr) is the most widely used renal biomarker for diagnosis of AKI although a recent study in rats ...
Mechanisms underlying early rapid increases in creatinine in paraquat poisoning

Mohamed, F.; Endre, Z.; Jayamanne, S.; Pianta, T.; Peake, P.; Palangasinghe, C.; Chathuranga, U.; Jayasekera, K.; Wunnapuk, K.; Shihana, F.; Shahmy, S.; Buckley, N. (Public Library of Science, 2015)

BACKGROUND: Acute kidney injury (AKI) is common after severe paraquat poisoning and usually heralds a fatal outcome. The rapid large increases in serum creatinine (Cr) exceed that which can be explained by creatinine ...
Population pharmacokinetics of an Indian F(ab')2 snake antivenom in patients with Russell's Viper (Daboia russelii) bites

Isbister, G.K.; Maduwage, K.; Saiao, A.; Buckley, N.A.; Jayamanne, S.F.; Seyed, S.; Mohamed, F.; Chathuranga, U.; Mendes, A.; Abeysinghe, C.; Karunathilake, H.; Gawarammana, I.; Lalloo, D.G.; de Silva, H.J. (Public Library of Science, 2015)

BACKGROUND: There is limited information on antivenom pharmacokinetics. This study aimed to investigate the pharmacokinetics of an Indian snake antivenom in humans with Russell's viper bites. METHODS/PRINCIPAL FINDINGS: ...
