We designed this study to compare serum markers of myocardial injury creatine kinase MB (CK-MB), as well, as serum contractile proteins, especially cardiac troponin T (cTnT) and cardiac troponin I (cTnI) in dialysis patients without acute ischemic heart disease. 24 patients on chronic hemodialysis were studied by history and physical examination, electrocardiography, and two-dimensional echocardiography. These patients had no evidence of ischemic heart disease. Biochemical markers were measured in serial predialysis blood samples with specific monoclonal antibody-based immunoassays. For several patients at least one sample measured above the upper reference limit: CK-MB, 7 of 24 (30%); ELISA cTnT, 17 of 24 (71%); Enzymun cTnT, 3 of 18 (17%); and cTnI, 1 of 24 (4%). Chronic dialysis patients without acute ischemic heart disease frequently had increased serum CK-MB and cTnT. Our finding are in agreement with the conclusions that cTnT and CK-MB detected in the serum of patients on chronic hemodialysis originates from the skeletal muscle and not from the heart.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D007676 Kidney Failure, Chronic The end-stage of CHRONIC RENAL INSUFFICIENCY. It is characterized by the severe irreversible kidney damage (as measured by the level of PROTEINURIA) and the reduction in GLOMERULAR FILTRATION RATE to less than 15 ml per min (Kidney Foundation: Kidney Disease Outcome Quality Initiative, 2002). These patients generally require HEMODIALYSIS or KIDNEY TRANSPLANTATION.
