ANION GAP DETERMINATION IN PREECLAMPSIA
Obstetrics & Gynecology, 1998To determine if the calculated anion gap differs according to presence or absence of hypertension in pregnant women.Retrospective data were obtained for 1223 patients who delivered at a community hospital during a 6-month period. Fifty-six (4.6%) of these patients were considered to have proteinuric hypertension, 66 (5.4%) to have non-proteinuric ...

American Journal of Clinical Pathology, 1992
The "anion gap" refers to the concentration of unmeasured anions in blood. The most commonly used formula to measure this is [Na]—[C1 ]—[HCO3] and a typical reference range is 8 to 16 mmol/L.' The anion gap has been used widely, primarily as an aid to identify the cause of a metabolic acidosis.

Acta Haematologica, 2009
The anion gap was evaluated in 26 consecutive patients with multiple myeloma (15 IgG and 11 IgA). The average anion gap was found reduced only in IgG myeloma. Instead, in the subjects with IgA myeloma it resulted as increased. The partial differences between our results and those of other authors are discussed.

Multiple Myeloma and the Anion Gap
New England Journal of Medicine, 1975THE anion gap (serum sodium - [chloride + bicarbonate]), represents those anions, other than chloride or bicarbonate, that counterbalance the positive charge of sodium. It is normally ≤ 14 mEq per liter. A high anion gap occurs in certain metabolic acidoses as a result of the replacement of bicarbonate by anions other than chloride.

Effect of Hypercalcemia on the Anion Gap
Nephron, 2008It has been assumed, but not documented, that hypercalcemia induces an appreciable reduction in the serum anion gap (AG) because it represents an increase in the level of unmeasured cations. To test this question, we retrospectively compared the data of 59 hypercalcemic patients with malignancy [group 1, serum Ca 13.3 ± SE 0.3 mg/dl] with those of 108 ...

The cerebrospinal fluid anion gap
The Journal of Pediatrics, 1982A L T H O U G H M O S T P A T I E N T S with acute bacterial meningitis have well-defined abnormalities in their cerebrospinal fluid, a few do not.' This fact, coupled with the knowledge that certain patients with aseptic (nonbacterial) meningitis have CSF changes similar to those typically seen in bacterial diseases demonstrates the need for a rapid ...

British journal of hospital medicine, 1986
The majority of doctors can recognize and treat obvious biochemical disturbances on the basis of routine urea and electrolyte results. A useful (although nonspecific) guide to acid-base status is also contained among those figures: this is a derivative known as the anion gap. This article is a guide to the anion gap.

Hyperglobulinemia With an Increased Anion Gap
The American Journal of the Medical Sciences, 1998Plasma proteins, especially albumin, account for much of the normal anion gap. The relationship between globulins and the anion gap has not received much attention except for reports of a narrowing of the gap associated with certain monoclonal immunoglobulin G gammopathies.

Anion Gap and Immunoglobulin Concentration
American Journal of Clinical Pathology, 1980The serum anion gap is often decreased in patients who have multiple myeloma or monoclonal gammopathy, presumably owing to the unmeasured contribution of cations by the paraprotein. In 83 patients who had moderate-to-severe diffuse (polyclonal) elevations in immunoglobulin concentration (> 3 g/dl), the mean serum anion gap was significantly lower than ...
