A rare case report of combined metformin-associated lactic acidosis and diabetic ketoacidosis
Background Triad of diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) comprises of hyperglycemia with serum glucose > 11 mmol/L, high anion gap metabolic acidosis and ketonemia. Hyperlactemia is often noted in patients with DKA.

Metabolic Acidosis and Subclinical Metabolic Acidosis in CKD [PDF]
Metabolic acidosis is not uncommon in CKD and is linked with bone demineralization, muscle catabolism, and higher risks of CKD progression and mortality. Clinical practice guidelines recommend maintaining serum total CO2 at ≥22 mEq/L to help prevent these complications.

Reversible acute blindness in suspected metformin-associated lactic acidosis: a case report
Background Metformin is commonly used for the treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus. Its multiple advantages include low risk of hypoglycemia, weight neutrality, low cost, and cardioprotective and anti-inflammatory effects.

Prevalence and severity of metabolic acidosis in patients on maintenance hemodialysis in India
Aim: Metabolic acidosis is a feature of chronic kidney disease (CKD) due to the reduced capacity of the kidney to synthesize ammonia and excrete hydrogen ions.

Pathophysiological aspect of metabolic acid-base disorders [PDF]
Maintaing the arterial pH values (in normal range of 7,35-7,45) is one of the main principles of homeostasis. Regulatory responses, including chemical buffering (extracellular, intracellular, sceletal), the regulation of pCO2 by the respiratory system ...

Metabolic Acidosis in CKD: A Review of Recent Findings
Metabolic acidosis is fairly common in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD). The prevalence of metabolic acidosis increases with worsening kidney function and is observed in ∼40% of those with stage 4 CKD.

Lactic acidosis triggers starvation response with paradoxical induction of TXNIP through MondoA. [PDF]
Although lactic acidosis is a prominent feature of solid tumors, we still have limited understanding of the mechanisms by which lactic acidosis influences metabolic phenotypes of cancer cells. We compared global transcriptional responses of breast cancer

Metabolic Acidosis in the Alligator.
SummarySympathomimetic agents produce a severe lactate acidemia in the alligator. Although the lactate concentration often exceeded the initial alkali reserve, over 90% survived by withdrawing sodium from sources outside the extracellular fluid. The extracellular osmotic pressure rose sharply during the acute acidotic phase and fell when the lactate ...

Background Methylmalonic acidemia (MMAemia) is a rare hereditary disease affecting organic acid metabolism. It causes recurrent metabolic acidosis and secondary mitochondrial dysfunction, resulting in a poor prognosis. Liver transplantation (LT) has been
