Twenty CUBA male athletes were divided into 4 groups： group A （supplementation of Cr alone）, group B （supplementation of oligosaccharide）, group C （supplementation of oligosaccharide and Cr） and group D （placebo control group）. By using orthogonal L4 table （2a ）, the experiment was performed. There were factors including oligosaccharide （carbohydrate, CHO）, Cr and their correlation. Each factor had two levels： supplementation and no-supplementation. The results showed that the supplementation of CliO or Cr alone, combined supplementation of CHO and Cr could significantly reduce the glucose, urea nitrogen levels in blood and serum CK activity after competition in the athletes. Moreover, the effects of combined supplementation of CHO and Cr were more satisfactory. It was concluded that supplementation of CliO and Cr could promote the recovery of physical performance and athletic abilities after athletics in basketball athletes.展开更多

Mehtods Blood samples were drawn at different time after onset of chest pain in 21 patients with UAP and only once in 20 each volunteers for control. CKMM3/MM1 ratio was detected by nonserial buffer agarose gel electrophoresis. CKMB and CK were observed by velocity method. An emergent coronary arteriography was performed as soon as patients were admitted into hospital. Results Patients with UAP were divided into two subgroups: patients with elevated serum enzyme [P( + )] and patients with normal serum enzyme [P( - ) ] according to CKMM3/MM1 ratio < 0. 5. Patients with UAP( + ) had higher serum CKMM3/MM1 ratios from 0.5 to 12hrs and serum CKMB from 2 to 12 hrs than those with UAP( - ) and control ( P < 0. 05) . Serum enzyme concentrations of patients with UAP whose coronary lumen had 90% or more than 90% stenosis were significantly higher than those whose coronary lumen had less than 90% stenosis ( P <0. 01) . Any CK-MM3/MM1 ratio was less than 1. 0 and CK within the normal range in patients with UAP( + ) group. Conclusions CKMM3/MM1 ratios in patients with UAP can reflect severity of myocardial ischemia. SerumCKMM3/MM1 ratio provides a simple, reliable, and economical method for identifying high-risk UAP.展开更多

METHODS: Serum samples from 49 DMD patients and 40 control subjects were collected for CK-MM isoforms measurement. CK-MM isoforms were separated within 30 minutes by electrophoresis on agarose gel with a discontinuous buffer system at constant current of 30 mA and low voltage of 200-300 V, then measured by fluorescence scanning. RESULTS: Significant differences of MM2/MM1 ratio were found between DMD patients and control subjects (P展开更多

Twenty-six patients received b1ood cardioplegia (BCP) and 26 crystalloid cardioplegia (CCP). Release of serum enzymes (creatine kinase, CK; hybrid muscle-brain CK isoenzyme, CK-MB; aspartate aminotransferase, ASTF and 1actic dehydrogenase, LDH) was determined pre-and post-operatively. DUring the first 72 h post-operation, release of CK, CK-MB, AST and LDH in the 2 groups was different, In case of tetralogy of Fallot (TOF) the CK-MB released in l3CP and CCP 12 h after operation were 51. 29±9. 42 and 85. 77±22. 39 U/L respectively (P<0. 05). In the CCP group of TOF, CK-MB level increased significantly even at 72 h after operation (30. 91±14. 32 U/L vs the pre-operative value of 14. 57±7. 51 U/L). The results show a better myocardial preservation in the BCP group as compared with the CCP group. BCP can maintain metabolic homeostasis of the myocardium, reduce myocardial injury and increase the content of myocardial high energy phosphate during ischemia. Tolerance to ischemia is poor in patients with complex congenital heart disease. Therefore, preservation of high energy phosphates is necessary for severe-grade patients and BCP is superior to crysta1loid cardioplegia in this regard. It is concluded that CCP results in a higher release of CK-MB as compared with BCP group. BCP is superior to CCP for myocardial protection in patients with complex congenital heart disease.展开更多
