چکیده
all clinical diagnostic laboratories in the US failed to recognize these falsepositive ketone reactions in survey specimens (10 ). It is also relevant to mention that above-therapeutic concentrations of mesna, which carry a high reducing capacity, did not cause interference in two Chemstrip 10UA tests that are based on oxidation reactions (glucose by glucose oxidase/peroxidase and hemoglobin with its strong pseudoperoxidase activity). This observation is in accordance with the manufacturer’s claim that even high concentrations of ascorbic acid will rarely cause falsely low results for these tests with Chemstrip 9 or 10UA (11).

Comparison of pregnancy-associated plasma protein-A, troponin and creatine kinase-MB levels in acute coronary syndrome
Background: Early diagnosis and proper treatment of patient with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) and ischemic heart disease are important in determining prognosis, preventing adverse effects, and may even save lives. In this study, the level of pregnancy-associated plasma protein-A (PAPP-A) in ACS patients was compared with the control group, in addition to cardiac Troponin (cTn) and creatine kin...
متن کاملCorrelation of antemortem serum creatine kinase, creatine kinase-MB, troponin I, and troponin T with cardiac pathology.
BACKGROUND Spurious increases in serum troponins, especially troponin T, have been reported in patients with and without acute myocardial syndromes. METHODS We studied 78 autopsied patients without clinical myocardial infarction (MI) and correlated histologic cardiac findings with antemortem serum creatine kinase (CK), its MB isoenzyme (CK-MB), cardiac troponin I (cTnI), and cardiac troponin ...
متن کاملComparison of the troponin T and troponin I ELISA tests, as measured by microplate immunoassay techniques, in diagnosing acute myocardial infarction.
We describe an improved procedure using a standard microplate immunoassay reader to measure the concentration of troponin T in human serum. We also describe an immunoassay for troponin I in serum. Only 160 microliters of serum are needed for a single analysis of each troponin. For comparison, creatine kinase MB mass analysis in serum was performed with a commercial luminometric method. From 95 ...

Background and Objectives: The aim of this study was to survey the relationship between the level of creatinine,cardiac troponins serum and the function of the left ventricle in patients with kidney insufficiency,without acute coronary syndrome. Materialsand Methods:The sample was150 patients with nondialysis chronic kidney disease without acute coronary syndrome, hospitalized at I...
متن کاملThe mass concentrations of serum troponin T and creatine kinase-MB are elevated before creatine kinase and creatine kinase-MB activities in acute myocardial infarction.
The time-related frequency of elevated results for the mass concentrations of the MB isoenzyme of creatine kinase and of troponin T were compared with that of creatine kinase and creatine kinase-MB activity in patients with acute myocardial infarction. Patients (322; 175 with and 147 without myocardial infarction) consecutively admitted for evaluation of possible acute myocardial infarction wer...
