By weight, the average russet potato is about 78.3 percent water. After water, starches and sugars compose the bulk of the potato's chemical content at about 18 percent. Non-digestible carbohydrates--or fiber--in the form of cellulose and pectin make up another 0.4 percent of the potato.
Wood replies: Traumatic rhabdomyolysis is often a result of natural disasters such as earthquakes where patients are crushed by debris. In settings with limited or no renal support such as renal dialysis, preventing renal failure in traumatic rhabdomyolysis is critical.
rhabdomyolysis, the clinical and biological consequences of this syndrome and to provide an appraisal of the current data available in order to facilitate the prevention, early diagnosis and prompt management of this condition. Keywords Creatine kinase, rhabdomyolysis, muscle weakness, myoglobin, myoglobinuria introduCtion Rhabdomyolysis is a potentially life-threatening syndrome characterised by the breakdown of skeletal muscle resulting in the subsequent release of intracellular contents into the circulatory system. These cell contents include enzymes such as creatine kinase (CK), glutamic oxalacetic transaminase, lactate dehydrogenase, aldolase, the haeme pigment myoglobin, electrolytes such as potassium review rhabdomyolysis: a review of the literature F.Y.
