troponin I curve Explanation: "We found that (1) troponin I is a better cardiac marker than CK-MB for myocardial infarction because it is equally sensitive yet more specific for myocardial injury; (2) troponin T is a relatively poorer cardiac marker than CK-MB because it is less sensitive and less specific for myocardial injury; and (3) both troponin I and troponin T may be used as independent prognosticators of future cardiac events." https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/10395418 "Myocardial infarct size was estimated using serial cardiac troponin I (cTn-I) levels, collected at 6-hour intervals from the time of admission until two consecutive cTn-I measurements showed a decrease (median of two cTn-I measurements). Both peak cTn-I levels and the area under the cTn-I curve were significantly lower in patients with OSA compared with patients without OSA." https://journal.chestnet.org/article/S0012-3692(17)31403-4/p... "As far as slope diagrams are concerned, only the troponin I diagram was taken into account because it has been shown to be associated with the highest specificity and sensitivity. Up-slope steepness of the postoperative troponin I curve appeared to be less in the RSV group than in the placebo group." https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S002252230... |

I enzymatic curve Explanation: Enzymatic curve for CK-MB and Troponin I https://www.researchgate.net/figure/Enzymatic-curve-for-CK-M... The Italian Group for the Study of Streptokinase in Myocardial Infarct: Evaluation of the enzymatic curve of creatine kinase https://www.semanticscholar.org/paper/[The-Italian-Group-for... In the simplest case an enzyme reaction can be observed by the appearance (or disappearance) of a coloured compound, so that it can be even observed by eye. [...] Various types are available and because of their broad applicability also for determination of proteins, nucleic acids and metabolites such an instrument should belong to the standard equipment of any biochemical laboratory. Such a procedure gives no guarantee that the measurement occurs indeed within the linear part of the progress curve and therefore control measurements at different reaction times must be undertaken to establish this fact. https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S221302091... Enzyme assays are laboratory methods for measuring enzymatic activity. They are vital for the study of enzyme kinetics and enzyme inhibition. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Enzyme_assay How do you measure the rate of enzyme controlled reactions By plotting the amount of product against time, you should create a curve that looks a little bit like the one pictured. This plot is useful as it allows you to calculate the initial rate of reaction. https://www.birmingham.ac.uk/undergraduate/preparing-for-uni... chirurgiche cardiache e non che causano la morte dei miociti cardiaci e l’iinnalzamento e in seguito discesa della curva enzimatica troponinica https://www.esamievalori.com/analisi-sangue/troponina-i-t-tr... -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 21 hrs (2019-06-25 21:39:39 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Alanine aminotransferase (ALT), aspartate aminotransferase (AST), alkaline phosphatase (ALP), and lactic dehydrogenase (LDH) are components of routine or comprehensive blood panels and collectively demonstrate liver function. In the present study, a high frequency of patients with MD presented with abnormal levels of serum enzymes (including ALT, AST, ALP, and LDH). https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4429213/ |

Reference: first curve Reference information: I think your reasoning is correct. In Italian medical language and not only we often use the roman letters (I, II, III and so on ......) as ordinal numbers. I don't know if it relates to troponin I curve. Probably -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 9 hrs (2019-06-25 10:27:00 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- I'd like to explain better what I wrote very early in the morning. If (I) relates to Troponin, you would likely find also the letter T referred to the other type of Troponin measured in the laboratory test. Is there the letter T? If not, the most reasonable answer for you "mistery" it's "first curve" in my opinion. |
