Our retrospective cohort study is a pioneer in addressing the effect of acute alcohol intoxication amongst adolescents (< 18 years) upon muscle tissue (creatinine kinase level) within a large population.When evaluating the blood samples of the included population, elevated creatinine kinase levels were...
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...
Relevance of Creatine Kinase Activity and Serum Creatinine Levels in Hypothyroidism Background: Hypothyroidism is the most common endocrine disorders. Musculoskeletal and renal dysfunctions are often observed in cases of hypothyroidism during any time of disease process. Objectives: To determine the influence...
Overnight fasting venous blood samples were collected on the second day morning of admission and sent to the clinical laboratory center of our hospital within 1 h for further analyses of FPG, HbA1c, serum creatinine (SCr) and lipid profiles including triglyceride, total cholesterol (TC), high ...
Information from the ER visit on patient sex, weight and height (when available) along with results from routine laboratory tests e.g., blood count, D-dimer, C-reactive protein (CRP), creatinine, international normalized ratio (INR) and activated partial thromboplastin time (aPTT) were ...
Age, gender, body mass index, systolic and dias- tolic blood pressures, heart rate, serum sodium, creatinine, creatine kinase, and risk factors were not different among the four groups. In addition, there was no significant difference in the ratio of antihypertensive medications before admission ...
After admission, demographic characters (age, sex), and vascular risk factors (drinking, smoking, diabetes, hypertension, total cholesterol, triglyceride, low-density lipoprotein, fasting blood glucose, creatinine, and uric acid) were all recorded. Stroke severity was evaluated by a trained neurologist...
Inclusion criteria were myocardial infarction confirmed by significant rise of cTNI and creatinine kinase MB (CK-MB) levels, ST-segment changes, and durative chest pain >30 mins, on admission within 12 h. (2) Emergency PCI (24 men and 8 women, mean age 54.3 ± 8.81) group that were...
Glomerular size, mesangial matrix and urinary albumin to creatinine ratio were significantly increased in Akita mice (Fig. S3A, C, D and G). Fig. 3A and B shows the average spectra obtained from HSR-MALDI-MSI of the kidneys from WT and Akita mice, respectively. Interestingly, HSR-MALDI-...
Haemoglobin, glucose, glycated haemoglobin (HbA1c), total cholesterol, high-density and low-density lipoprotein (HDL and LDL) cholesterol, triglycerides, creatinine, creatine kinase (CK), alanine aminotransferase (ALAT), aspartate aminotransferase (ASAT), gamma glutamyl transferase (GGT), and vitamins ...
