Journal ArticleDOI
Raised serum S100B levels after acute bone fractures without cerebral injury.
TL;DR: S100B levels were raised in 29% of patients with acute fractures without apparent cerebral injury, which suggests an extracerebral source of S100B, which should be taken into account when interpreting S 100B levels when dealing with brain damage.
Journal ArticleDOI
Phosphatidylethanol in blood (B-PEth): A marker for alcohol use and abuse
TL;DR: The possibility of determining very low concentrations of PEth by new sensitive analytical techniques may, however, have both ethical and legal consequences that have to be considered.
Journal ArticleDOI
Phosphatidylethanol : normalization during detoxification, gender aspects and correlation with other biomarkers and self-reports
Friedrich M. Wurst,Natasha Thon,Steina Aradottir,Susanne Hartmann,Gerhard A. Wiesbeck,Otto M. Lesch,Katrin Skala,Manfred Wolfersdorf,Wolfgang Weinmann,Christer Alling +9 more
TL;DR: The data suggest that PEth is a suitable intermediate term marker of ethanol intake in both sexes; sensitivity is extraordinary high in alcohol dependent patients; and the correlation of PEth with other biomarkers and self‐reported alcohol consumption is reported.
Journal ArticleDOI
Estimating driver risk using alcohol biomarkers, interlock blood alcohol concentration tests and psychometric assessments: initial descriptives
Paul R. Marques,Scott Tippetts,John F. Allen,Martin A. Javors,Christer Alling,Michel Yegles,Fritz Pragst,Friedrich M. Wurst +7 more
TL;DR: It is suggested that several alcohol biomarkers and assessments could play an important role in the prediction and control of driver alcohol risk when re-licensing.
Journal ArticleDOI
5-Hydroxytryptamine stimulates the formation of inositol phosphate in astrocytes from different regions of the brain.
TL;DR: The results indicate that astrocytes from various regions of the brain possess 5-HT2 receptors coupled to the formation of inositol phosphates and there was no statistically significant accumulation of cyclic AMP after incubation with different concentrations of 5- HT.
