A confirmed diagnosis of rhabdomyolysis (increase in CK>fivefold the upper limit of normal) was present in 4.4% of cases. Moreover, using a linear regression this study found that a higher blood alcohol concentration was associated with higher creatinine kinase levels, when adjusted for positive ...
The most common causes of rhabdomyolysis are alcohol abuse, muscle exertion, muscle compression, the use of certain medications or illicit drugs and causes may also be of traumatic, heat-related, ischemic, infectious, inflammatory, metabolic and endocrinological origin. In our case we could not dete...

Serum creatine kinase MB (CK-MB) may be elevated in asymptomatic marathon runners after competition from exertional rhabdomyolysis of skeletal muscle altered by training, limiting its utility for evaluating acute cardiac injury in such athletes. Myoglobin and CK-MB2 isoform levels are emerging as ...

There are few reports of elevation of creatine phosphokinase (CK) levels and rhabdomyolysis caused by hypothyroidism [13]. On the other hand, hypothyroidism and elevated thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) levels are reportedly independent risk factors for non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) [4,5]. ...
Post-CPR CK-MB levels also showed a positive correlation with the number of joules administered (p less than 0.005) and the number of chest compressions (p less than 0.02). Forty-three (68.3 percent) of the 63 patients developed rhabdomyolysis. Serum CK levels were higher (p less than ...
First neuromuscular assessment at 24years did not show any muscle weakness, atrophy or hypertrophy, neither exercise intolerance nor rhabdomyolysis. CPK levels were always high (from 300 to 14000IU/L). Electromyographic examination showed myopathic pattern with normal nerve conditions. Muscle CT scan ...

Colic is a common and potentially life-threatening condition in horses; in many cases, it remains challenging for clinicians to determine the cause, appropriate treatment, and prognosis. One approach that could improve patient care and outcomes is identi
