TLDR
The activities of CK and its isoenzymes were determined in the sera of six test subjects just before and 6 and 24 h after, alcohol intake, and in serum from 14 chronic alcoholics, who had consumed alcohol for several days before the blood sampling.Abstract:
The activities of CK and its isoenzymes were determined in the sera of six test subjects just before, and 6 and 24 h after, alcohol intake. The CK activity was higher after alcohol intake, but the change was not significant. CK-MB isoenzyme was not observed. The activities of CK and its isoenzymes were also determined in serum from 14 chronic alcoholics, who had consumed alcohol for several days before the blood sampling. Pathologically high activity of creatine kinase was found in six of them, but CK-MB and CK-BB isoenzymes were not found.read more

TL;DR: The focus of this review is to identify the acute effects of alcohol on exercise performance and give a brief insight into explanatory factors.

Motor performance during and following acute alcohol intoxication in healthy non-alcoholic subjects.
TL;DR: A single episode of moderate alcohol intoxication (1,4 g/l) does not impair motor performance, and no accelerated exercise-induced muscle damage is seen.

Lack of effect of recent alcohol consumption on the course of acute myocardial infarction
TL;DR: Recent alcohol use is not associated with changes in infarct size or risk for Q-wave infarction, congestive heart failure, or ventricular arrhythmia among this population of patients.

Observed activities of serum creatine kinase: total and B subunit activity and other enzymes in young persons abusing solvents.
TL;DR: It is concluded that the increased total CK activity found in this group of solvent abusers was due to physical activity, but a contribution from specific muscle toxicity by solvents cannot be excluded.

Brain Damage due to Alcohol Consumption: An Air‐encephalographic, Psychometric and Electroencephalographic Study
Colin Brewer,Lance V. Perrett +1 more
TL;DR: Combined radiological and psychometric assessment is suggested as a routine measure in the management of patients who drink heavily and the term “omega-alcoholic” is proposed for a type of drinker not previously described.

TL;DR: Occasional ethanol intoxication seems to carry an increased risk of ischaemic brain infarction in young adults.

Multiple serum enzyme analyses in chronic alcoholics.
TL;DR: In alcoholics the increased serum activity of the intramitochondrial enzyme, glutamate dehydrogenase, suggests a rather severe liver damage in nearly half of the patients.

Demonstration of serum creatine kinase isoenzymes by fluorescence technique
Hannu Somer,Aarne Konttinen +1 more
TL;DR: Serum creatine kinase (CK) isoenzymes can be sensitively and specifically demonstrated by the fluorescence of NADPH2 by the technique more specific than the tetrazolium staining methods because the “nothing dehydrogenase reaction” does not cause disturbing artefacts as in theStaining methods.

Hepatocellular cytoplasmic changes in acute alcoholic hepatitis.
TL;DR: In liver biopsy specimens, varying amounts of fat and fibrosis are present although hepatocellular necrosis and a polymorphonuclear leukocytic inflammatory response are frequent, which led to the application of the terms "acute alcoholic" hepatitis, "toxic hepatitis," and active or "florid" cirrhosis to this heterogeneous group of cases.
