Raised serum creatine phosphokinase activity in ankylosing spondylitis.
Serum enzyme studies were made on 43 (37 male, 6 female) consecutive patients with ankylosing spondylitis. Serum creatine phosphokinase (CPK) activity was raised above 55 IU/l in 24 (65%) of 37 male patients (range 29-165 IU/l, mean 68) as compared with 2 (4%) out of 47 male controls (range 14-85 IU/l, mean 33: P less than 0-001); levels were greater than 35 IU/l in six (100%) out of six female...
متن کاملCreatine phosphokinase activity during lithium treatment.
In a group of patients suffering from manic depressive illness treated with lithium carbonate occasional large increases in creatine phosphokinase (C.P.K.) activity were seen. These were found to occur at times when the patients were stable in mood and clinically well. The serum lithium levels were adequate in all cases at the time of raised C.P.K. activity. Raised C.P.K. activity can be an ind...
متن کاملSerum creatine phosphokinase activity in acute psychosis.
During the last 7 years, there have been a number of investigations of the incidence of various types of neuromuscular dysfunction in patients with schizophrenic and affective illnesses and their first-degree relatives in comparison with appropriate controls, including nonpsychotic psychiatric patients. Before reviewing these studies, it may be of value to discuss why neuromuscular dysfunction ...
متن کاملCreatine phosphokinase activity in rabbit alveolar macrophages.
An enzyme is present in extracts of rabbit alveolar macrophage which can catalyze the reaction of creatine phosphate with adenosine diphosphate to form adenosine triphosphate and creatine. The enzyme is moderately activated by reduced glutathione, has a pH optimum between pH 6.5 and 7.0, and shows an absolute requirement for Mg(2+). The K(m) for creatine phosphate is approximately 3.6 mm while ...
متن کاملCreatine phosphokinase values and myalgia during isotretinoin therapy
Background: Systemic isotretinoin is a very effective medication for the treatment of acne, but it has some side effects. One of its side effects is musculoskeletal problems such as increased levels of creatine phosphokinase (CPK), myalgia, and serious muscle damage such as rhabdomyolysis. The aim of this study was to evaluate the incidence of myalgia and its relationship with the elevation of ...
