Symptomatic salicylate ototoxicity: a useful indicator of serum salicylate concentration?
A three phase study was designed to define further the sensitivity and specificity of symptomatic salicylate ototoxicity (primarily tinnitus) for serum salicylate concentrations. In phase one 260 patients with osteoarthritis and 112 with rheumatoid arthritis, none taking salicylates, were interviewed about their ear symptoms. Their responses were not significantly different from those of 134 sa...
متن کاملFalsely high serum creatinine concentration associated with severe methanol intoxication.
A case of severe methanol intoxication (1300 mg/L) was associated with markedly increased serum creatinine (490 mg/L) despite normal urea values and the absence of any other signs of renal disease. These values declined progressively to normal, and the patient recovered with no visual impairment. Additional laboratory experimentation suggested that the high creatinine value was probably ascriba...
متن کاملFalsely elevated troponin levels.
To diagnose a myocardial infarction, an increase and/or fall in troponin values by at least one value > the 99th percentile in a healthy reference population is required, combined with other ischaemic signs or symptoms (1). Troponin T and troponin I are considered equal in diagnostics of myocardial infarction. There is only one manufacturer of tests for troponin T and thus only one reference ra...
متن کاملElevated Serum Aminotransferases Secondary to Rippling Muscle Disease
A 43-year-old man was referred by his general practitioner to the hepatology clinic with deranged serum aminotransferases, discovered as part of routine blood tests. The objective was to identify the cause of elevated serum aminotransferases in this patient in a systematic manner. Thorough history and physical examination revealed a background history of rippling muscle disease secondary to cav...
متن کاملFalsely elevated prothrombin international normalized ratio values.
International normalized ratio (INR) monitoring is essential during oral anticoagulation therapy to minimize bleeding complications and thrombotic events. Laboratory technicians cannot differentiate falsely elevated INR results due to problems in drawing blood from truly elevated INR values, but the extent of this phenomenon is unclear. We determined the proportion of patients with INR values o...
