Serum lactate dehydrogenase isoenzymes in the diagnosis of myocardial infarction.
نویسندگان
چکیده
The ratio of lactate dehydrogenase (LD-1:LD-2) in serum was studied in 101 patients admitted to a coronary care unit. The clinical reliability of the test could not be predicted from the normality or abnormality of the total serum lactate dehydrogenase (LD) activity. However, for samples with total LD activity below the middle of the normal range, no information was provided by the test. In contrast, the test provided reliable information when the total LD activity in the specimen was above the middle of the reference range (220 IU per L).

Enzymatic and Immunogenic Changes of Myocardial Infarction
Diagnosis of myocardial infarction is very important in a patient with chest pain. Chest pain is not always present or it may be from other causes rather than myocardial infarction. Q wave is present in 30] of infarction. ST,T wave changes are present in all myocardial infarctions, but these changes also are present in myocardial ischernia. For these reasons diagnosis of myocardial infarction...
متن کاملFalsely negative laboratory diagnosis for myocardial infarction owing to the concurrent presence of macro creatine kinase and macro lactate dehydrogenase.
Macro creatine kinase (CK, EC 2.7.3.2) and macro lactate dehydrogenase (LD, EC 1.1.1.27) were both present in the serum of a 70-year-old woman with myocardial infarction. This interfered with the interpretation of the CK and LD isoenzyme analyses. Gel filtration and immunoprecipitation showed that the macro CK consisted of IgG and CK and the macro LD of IgG and LD. The IgG in this patient bound...

Diagnosis of injury to the myocardium is facilitated by information on the activities of creatine kinase (EC 2.7.3.2) MB isoenzyme (CK-MB) and lactate dehydrogenase (EC 1.1.1.27) isoenzyme 1 in serum, these isoenzymes being present in higher activities in the myocardium than in other tissues or in normal serum. The temporal relationships of these isoenzymes, total creatine kinase, total lactate...
