alkaline phosphatase/infarction

BACKGROUND Serum alkaline phosphatase (ALP) has been shown to be a prognostic factor in several subgroups of patients due to its promotion of vascular calcification. However, the prognostic impact of serum ALP level in ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) patients with a relatively low

Background: Elevated serum transaminase or alkaline phosphatase (ALP) has been proposed as a novel prognosticator for ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). We evaluated the combined prognostic impact of elevated serum transaminases and ALP on

BACKGROUND There has been increasing evidence suggesting that lipopolysaccharide or endotoxin may be an important activator of the innate immune system after acute myocardial infarction. Bovine intestinal alkaline phosphatase reduces inflammation in several endotoxin mediated diseases by

BACKGROUND Alkaline phosphatase (ALP) removes phosphate groups from many types of molecules. The aim of the present research was to study the relation between plasma ALP and survival in diabetic patients with myocardial infarction. METHODS Retrospective study: from 954 admissions (15 months period)

Serum creatine phosphokinase (CK) and alkaline phosphatase (ALP) rise after mesenteric infarction; it is not known which one rises earlier or which one has the greater elevation. This experiment compared and contrasted the elevations in both these enzyme systems after acute small bowel infarction.

The relation of total serum alkaline phosphatase and serum cholesterol in convalescing patients of myocardial infarction with secretor status and blood groups have been studied. Serum cholesterol and alkaline phosphatase levels showed significant difference in secretors (98) and nonsecretors (56) in

Objective Recent studies have shown that alkaline phosphatase (ALP) might play a negative role in clinical outcomes of patients with peripheral and coronary artery disease. This study aimed to investigate the relationship between serum ALP levels and coronary thrombolysis in myocardial infarction

Objective: The purpose of this study was to determine whether increased alkaline phosphatase (ALP) was associated with early neurological deterioration (END) in patients with atherothrombotic brain infarction (ATBI) attributable to

OBJECTIVE Higher serum alkaline phosphatase (ALP) and phosphate levels are associated with atherosclerotic disease and an increased risk of cardiovascular events. However, the association of ALP/phosphate with cerebral atherosclerosis and prognosis in patients with acute stroke is not well

BACKGROUND Since Pakistanis have high prevalence of hypovitaminosis-D as well as acute myocardial infarction (AMI), the objective of the study was to investigate the relationship between vitamin-D deficiency and risk of AMI in a hospital-based population and to identify major risk factors for this

OBJECTIVE The association between alkaline phosphatase (ALP) and mortality was reported in several subgroups of patients. But, the role of ALP in overall coronary artery disease (CAD) patients after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) remains unknown. The aim of this study was to examine the

There are currently no simple tests in clinical use to detect acute placental damage. A case is described to demonstrate that a routinely used measurement such as alkaline phosphatase (ALP) can be employed to detect acute damage to the placenta. Seventeen serial blood samples, three pre-delivery,
