purpose: myocardial infarction is among the most common diagnoses in patients admitted   to hospitals in western countries, and its rapid diagnosis is of utmost importance. this study   was conducted to determine the most sensitive double-marker cardiac isoenzyme of creatinine   kinase, troponin i, and myoglobin for diagnosing acute myocardial infarction.   materials and methods: this was an ob...

Objective(s): Diazinon (DZ) is an organophosphate pesticide that induces oxidative damage in different organs. The aim of this study was to compare the effectiveness of nanomicelles containing curcuminoids (NCUR) and natural curcumin (CUR) in attenuating the oxidative damage induced by DZ in male rats. Materials and Methods: After a single intraperitoneal (IP) injection of DZ (100 mg/kg), the r...

The aim of the study was to evaluate usefulness determining markers myocardial damage, such as: aspartate aminotransferase, total creatine kinase, cardiac kinase isoenzyme, lactate dehydrogenase, dehydrogenase isoenzyme and peripheral blood lactic acid in sport horses subjected physical exertion. research carried out on 50 three breeds: Ukrainian Riding, Hanoverian Westphalian, aged 4-16 years....

The course of plasma catalytic activities of total creatine kinase, creatine kinase isoenzyme MB, total, cytoplasmatic and mitochondrial aspartate aminotransferase, alanine aminotransferase, lactate dehydrogenase, alpha-hydroxybutyrate dehydrogenase, glutamate dehydrogenase and concentrations of myoglobin, urea, acidic alpha 1-glycoprotein and creatinine were followed in 33 patients suffering f...

OBJECTIVE Myocardial injury during cardiac surgery is a major cause of perioperative morbidity and mortality. We determined whether perioperative statin therapy is cardioprotective in patients undergoing noncoronary artery cardiac surgery and the potential mechanisms. METHODS AND RESULTS One hundred fifty-one patients undergoing noncoronary artery cardiac surgery were randomly assigned to eit...

hemiscorpius lepturus is the most dangerous scorpion species, endemic in khuzestan province and other southwestern areas of iran, causing morbidity and mortality in children and adults. the efficacy of the antivenom for reversal of manifestation caused by venom of this scorpion is a controversial issue. in the present work, h. lepturus venom (1500 µg/kg) was subcutaneously injected into two ...

Hemiscorpius lepturus is medically important scorpion species present in the south and southwest part of Iran, causing morbidity and mortality in children and adults. Unlike other scorpions studied so far, the venom of H. lepturus is highly cytotoxic, that can be a reason for its complexity in clinical manifestations in patients stung by this scorpion. Scarce studies showed the mechanism invol...
