Mean Serum Creatine Kinase among Organophosphate Poisoning Cases in a Tertiary Care Centre: A Descriptive Cross-sectional Study

open access: yesJournal of Nepal Medical Association, 2022
Introduction: Major cases of poisoning are associated with organophosphates. Cholinergic effects and an intermediate phase seen with organophosphate poisoning may implicate myopathy. Creatine kinase is a marker of muscle tissue damage.

Creatine kinase elevation and discontinuation of clozapine: fear-driven clinical practice in a forensic case with treatment-resistant schizophrenia and persistent violent behaviour

open access: yesBJPsych Open, 2021
In forensic settings, the most common indication for clozapine is treatment-resistant schizophrenia (TRS). Clozapine has also been shown to be effective in reducing hostility, aggression and violence in patients with schizophrenia and is of benefit in ...

Regulation of T cell development and activation by creatine kinase B.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2009
Creatine kinase catalyzes the reversible transfer of the N-phosphoryl group from phosphocreatine to ADP to generate ATP and plays a key role in highly energy-demanding processes such as muscle contraction and flagellar motility; however, its role in ...

Ckmt1 is Dispensable for Mitochondrial Bioenergetics Within White/Beige Adipose Tissue

open access: yesFunction, 2022
Within brown adipose tissue (BAT), the brain isoform of creatine kinase (CKB) has been proposed to regulate the regeneration of ADP and phosphocreatine in a futile creatine cycle (FCC) that stimulates energy expenditure. However, the presence of FCC, and

Creatine supplementation: effects on blood creatine kinase activity responses to resistance exercise and creatine kinase activity measurement

open access: yesBrazilian Journal of Pharmaceutical Sciences, 2009
The purpose of this study was to determine the effects of creatine supplementation and exercise on the integrity of muscle fiber, as well as the effect of the supplementation on the creatine kinase (CK) assay measurement. Forty-nine sedentary individuals
