Acid-Base Equilibrium
Abstract
The lactate concentrations were significantly higher in the LR group than in the Plasmalyte group 1 h after hepatectomy [4.2 (3.2-5.7) vs. 3.3 (2.6-4.6) mmol/l; P=0.005, median (interquartile ranges)]. In addition, the nadir concentration of albumin was significantly lower and the peak total bil...

Abstract
Mortality increases when extubations fail. Although predictors of extubation failure have been evaluated, physicians' reasoning to extubate a patient has received minimal attention. We hypothesized that the accuracy and reliability of physicians' extubation decisions are low.

Abstract
The purpose of the present investigation was to observe the ergogenic potential of 0.3 g·kg-1 of sodium bicarbonate (NaHCO3) in competitive, nonelite swimmers using a repeated swim sprint design that eliminated the technical component of turning. Six male (181.2 ± 7.2 cm; 80.3 ± 11.9 kg; 50.8 ±...

Abstract
To report on severe acid-base disturbance in a child with symptomatic epilepsy treated with sulthiame.
A 9.5-year-old boy with chronic generalized tonic-clonic seizures was treated with carbamazepine and valproic acid. Because of poor seizure control, sulthiame was added to the treatment. Two months...

A mouse model of ischemic spinal cord injury with delayed paralysis caused by aortic cross-clamping.
Abstract
The onset of paresis or paralysis and postsurgical mortality varied as a function of cross-clamp time and core temperature that was maintained during the period of cross-clamp. Using optimal surgical parameters (7.5-min cross-clamp duration at 33°C core temperature), the onset of paralysis is delay...

Abstract
Manipulation of the extracellular and/or intracellular pH of tumors may have considerable potential in cancer therapy. The extracellular space of most tumors is mildly acidic, owing to exuberant production of lactic acid. Aerobic glycolysis - attributable largely to chronic activation of hypoxia-ind...

Abstract
These results suggest that DMI of cows fed diets rich in rapidly degraded starch and low DCAD was limited to maintain the blood pH in a physiological range. Increasing DCAD allowed the cows to increase DMI because of the ability of positive DCAD to maintain blood acid-base status. A localized rumen...

Contrary to the widely held view that the only response to hypoxemia is a decrease in haemoglobin oxygen affinity, it was shown that under extreme hypoxemic conditions, an increased haemoglobin oxygen affinity improves the oxygenation of tissues. It was also shown that the dominance of hemoglobin wi...

FHR characteristics in different foetal behavioural states offer the opportunity to design a new index, the WAS index, which shows close (p<<10(-4)) correlations with all variables of the foetal ABB. Thus, the pH value in cord blood can be predicted within clinically reasonable limits. The qualitati...

The issue of the acid-base balance (ABB) parameters and their disorders in pets is rarely raised and analysed, though it affects almost 30% of veterinary clinics patients. Traditionally, ABB is described by the Henderson-Hasselbach equation, where blood pH is the resultant of HCO3- and pCO2 concentr...
