Two Clinical Records of Human Injuries with a Death caused by Electric Eels Electrophorus spp. Gill, 1864 [PDF]

Revista da Sociedade Brasileira de Medicina Tropical
Electrical eels, or poraqués or temblones (Electrophorus spp. Gill, 1864), are highly feared animals in the Amazon, mainly because of their electric discharge of up to 860 volts. We report two cases of human injuries caused by electric eels, one of which

Changes of creatine phosphokinase MB levels in the context of myocardial reperfusion injury

Российский кардиологический журнал, 2022
In patients with initially elevated levels of creatine phosphokinase MB (CPK-MB), its increase after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) may be due not only to additional injury, but also to natural release during myocardial infarction.

Creatine Phosphokinase Level Accompanied with Macro-Creatine Phosphokinase Type 1 Negatively Correlates with Plasma Glucose Control in a Patient with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus

Dubai Diabetes and Endocrinology Journal, 2022
Introduction: The macromolecular complex formed by creatine phosphokinase (CPK) is most probably an immune complex. Most of the macro-CPK migrates between CPK-MM and CPK-MB, exhibiting an atypical band on isozyme electrophoresis.
