Introduction: Serum Creatinine Kinase (CK) is a non-specific marker of muscle damage. There has been limited investigation of the association between peripheral neuropathy and CK elevation (hyperCKemia). Methods: We performed a chart review to investigate the CK level in peripheral neuropathies. Dem...
It could also aid understanding of how acute alcohol intoxication influences the breakdown of adolescents' muscle tissue.What is Known: Alcohol, alongside pharmaceutical agents and illicit drugs, is a significant cause of rhabdomyolysis (increase in creatinine kinase > fivefold the upper limit of ...
Elevation of cardiac troponins and creatinine kinase is frequently observed in setting of systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS), sepsis, or septic shock. Underlying pathophysiologic mechanism for such troponin leak, its clinical significance, and what different could be done in such settings rem...

For men, statistically significant dependencies were found between BMI, waist circumference, systolic blood pressure (SBP), fasting glucose, and creatinine levels. In contrast, statistically significant dependencies for women were found between BMI, SBP, HDL cholesterol, TG, hs-CRP, and creatinine leve...
