TY - JOUR PY - 1978// TI - Creatine phosphokinase isoenzyme fractions in the serum of a patient struck by lightning JO - Archives of internal medicine A1 - Harwood, S. J. A1 - Catrou, P. G. A1 - Cole, G. W. SP - 645 EP - 646 VL - 138 IS - 4 N2 - Serial creatine phosphokinase (CPK) isoenzyme determinations were taken in an 8-year-old boy whose being struck by lightning resulted in prolonged cerebral anoxia, inferolateral myocardial infarction and death. All three isoenzyme levels (CPK-MM, CPK-MB, and CPK-BB) were elevated. The CPK-BB isoenzyme level increase was transient, being very high three hours postlightning strike and disappearing at approximately 24 hours.
