high intensity workout provokes damage in muscles with an effect on muscle physiology and function. today, serum levels of creatine and aspartate aminotransferase are widely used as biochemical markers of muscle damage in order to determine the functional status of muscle tissues in both pathological and physiological conditions. this study investigated the effect of a futsal match on some bioc...

aim : in the current study, we aimed at identifying independent laboratory parameter to predict liver damage. background : although liver biopsy is frequently recommended in assessing disease severity and selecting antiviral treatment candidates, it has several limitations. patients and methods : a total of 527 patients with untreated chronic hepatitis b virus infection were selected. a percuta...

This study investigated the correlation between biochemical markers and viral load among 38 measles cases, including 15 immunologically naive patients 23 with secondary vaccine failure (SVF). We examined four markers, namely, aspartate aminotransferase, alanine C-reactive protein, lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) their relationship virus genome copy numbers in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBM...

The blood biochemical analysis of bone markers could have a role in the early diagnosis of metabolic bone disease in animals; however, there is limited information on bone markers in captive Asian elephants (Elephas maximus). Serum samples from ten captive Asian elephants were obtained to clarify the relationship between age and the blood bone markers tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase isoform...

Markers of bone turnover are becoming an important tool for practitioners in the management of osteoporosis. Therefore, it is essential to establish a reference database of the markers before using them in various clinical settings. A total of 785 individuals (37% males, 63% females) without apparent or suggested abnormalities affecting bone mass were randomly selected from 13 clusters in Bushe...

diabetes mellitus is associated with complications in several different systems of the body, and the incidence of diabetes is rapidly increasing worldwide. the objective of the present study was to evaluate the effect of aqueous extract of cydonia oblonga mill. fruit on lipid profile and some biochemical parameters in streptozotocin-induced diabetic rats. the extract showed anti hyper lipidemic...

Biochemical markers produced by the affected organ or body in response to disease have gained high clinical value due to assess disease development and being excellent predictors of morbidity and mortality. The aim of this study is to analyze different biochemical markers in critically cancer patients and to determine which of them can be used as predictors of mortality. This is a prospective, ...

Fetal serum markers, such as alpha fetoprotein (AFP), must traverse one of two very different pathways to reach maternal serum, either from fetus to amnion fluid, membranes and decidua or from fetal to maternal circulation through the placental villi. Alpha fetoprotein usually enters the amnion fluid through body wall defects uncovered by skin or through urine. Placental AFP leakage may be from...
