Cardiac troponin T and echocardiographic dimensions after repeated sprint vs. moderate intensity continuous exercise in healthy young males [PDF]
Regular physical exercise can positively influence cardiac function; however, investigations have shown an increase of myocardial damage biomarkers after acute prolonged endurance exercises. We investigated the effect of repeated sprint vs. moderate long

Clinically effective CK-MB reporting
The clinical utility of measuring the Muscle Brain (MB) isoenzyme of creatine kinase (CK) in the diagnosis of myocardial injury is well established. CK/CK-MB measurement in combination or CK-MB alone is widely used and reporting the results of CK-MB in absolute unit is the common current practice.

Standardization of Creatine Kinase-MB (CK-MB) Mass Assays: The Use of Recombinant CK-MB as a Reference Material [PDF]
AbstractBackground: The AACC assembled a committee to identify and validate a standard creatine kinase MB isoenzyme (CK-MB) material to improve the comparability of CK-MB mass assays.Methods: Three protocols were used. In protocol I, various CK-MB materials prepared in different matrices were screened as candidate standards.

Hypothermia Induced CK-MB elevation.
An 88-year-old male patient with no significant medical history presented with nausea, vomiting and hypothermia. He was admitted for further testing which revealed elevated CK-MB and Troponin with no significant electrocardiogram changes.He denied cardiac symptoms or any previous cardiac history.We share this rare case of hypothermia induced elevation ...

Predictive indicators of acute kidney injury caused by exertional rhabdomyolysis
Objective To investigate the characteristics of exertional rhabdomyolysis (ERB) and the predictive value of creatine kinase (CK), myoglobin/creatine kinase (Mb/CK) ratio and other indicators for ERB patients with acute renal injury (AKI).

Role of increase of MB-creatine kinase in different extracardiac pathologies
Traditionally, increase of activity of creatine kinase MB-fraction (CK‑MB) is a diagnostic marker of acute myocardial infarction, but also registered in other diseases, when there are no lesions of coronary arteries. In some patients, the values of CK-MB
