Creatine Kinase-MB Elevation After Stroke Is Not Cardiac in Origin
Stroke 33:286-289, Ay,H.,et al, 2002
See this aricle in Pubmed

Article Abstract
Troponin T, a more specific biochemical marker of myocardial injury, does not increase after stroke. Normal troponin T along with elevated CK-MB signifies that CK-MB is not the biological marker for myocytolysis. CK-MB elevations in stroke patients are likely to be noncardiac in origin.
