Low creatine kinase is associated with a high population incidence of fainting

OBJECTIVE: Vasoconstrictor capacity, skeletal muscle tone, and renal sodium retention are involved in the pathogenesis of fainting. As muscle contractility and ion transport are highly energy-demanding processes, we hypothesized that a low activity of the energy-generating enzyme creatine kinase (CK...
