Author(s): Xikai Wang, Jingjing Ma and Yanli Wang*
Background: This study aimed to assess the importance of Heart-type Fatty Acid-Binding Protein (H-FABP),
Creatinine Kinase (CK) and Homocysteine (Hcy) in determining the severity of acute poisoning.
Materials and methods: 224 poisoning patients were divided into four observed groups-Carbon monoxide (CO),
alcohol, pesticide and drug, 50 health people as control group were included in this study. The patients were
diagnosed moderate or severe acute poisoning. Blood samples were collected at the time of admission and the HFABP,
CK and Hcy of serum were tested at the time point.
Results: All the four observed groups of patients, the average H-FABP, CK and Hcy levels were significantly higher
than those of the control group. We found H-FABP combined with CK had a statistically correlation between the
