Cross-sectional analysis reveals creatine kinase correlates with cardiovascular risk factors, highlighting sex disparities.

Creatine kinase levels showed weak correlations with cardiovascular disease risk factors, particularly in men.
Significant sex disparities were noted, with men exhibiting higher creatine kinase concentrations.
Cross-sectional analysis of 246 adults assessed relationships with cardiovascular parameters over a three-year study.
Caution is advised in interpreting results, as findings are hypothesis-generating and need larger prospective studies.

Izadpanah et al. (2025) studied this question.
