Objective: Metabolic acidosis often occurs in the paediatric intensive care unit (PICU). Although sodium bicarbonate (SB) has been widely used in paediatrics, data on the effect of SB on children with metabolic acidosis in the PICU are scarce.Methods ...

Randomized preclinical study of machine perfusion in vascularized composite allografts
This study was designed to identify the optimum machine perfusion parameters for preservation of limbs before transplantation, and determine whether this was better than cold storage. Normothermic machine perfusion at a pressure of 70 mmHg (NMP‐70) provided superior preservation to cold storage after transplantation.

Etiology and Management of Acute Metabolic Acidosis: An Update
Background: The etiology of acute metabolic acidosis (aMA) is heterogeneous, and the consequences are potentially life-threatening. The aim of this article was to summarize the causes and management of aMA from a clinician’s perspective.

The cause of metabolic acidosis [PDF]
To the Editor: As a case of ‘make your diagnosis’, Chang et al.1 presented a case with metabolic acidosis. Although the authors attributed the acid–base disorder of the case to D-lactic acidosis, the laboratory findings would indicate that the case had hyperchloremic acidosis in addition to D-lactic acidosis.

Normal anion gap metabolic acidosis secondary to topiramate intake: case report
Introduction: Topiramate is a drug used to treat various types of epilepsy and as prophylaxis in cases of migrainous headache. One of its mechanisms of action is the inhibition of carbonic anhydrase in the kidney that triggers the excretion of alkaline ...

Primary assessment of patients admitted to the emergency ward using arterial blood gas
Background: Arterial blood gas study (ABG) is a point-of-care testing (POCT) diagnostic tool that can furnish metabolic and respiratory aberrations. This study was conducted systematically, to assess the metabolic and respiratory aberrations quickly and ...

Sodium Bicarbonate Therapy in Patients with Metabolic Acidosis
Metabolic acidosis occurs when a relative accumulation of plasma anions in excess of cations reduces plasma pH. Replacement of sodium bicarbonate to patients with sodium bicarbonate loss due to diarrhea or renal proximal tubular acidosis is useful, but ...

Loss of proton‐sensing GPR4 reduces tumor progression in mouse models of colon cancer
G protein‐coupled receptor 4 (GPR4) is a pH‐sensing receptor activated by acidic pH. GPR4 expression is increased in patients with inflammatory bowel disease who are at high risk of developing colorectal cancer. In mouse models, loss of GPR4 attenuated tumor progression. This correlated with increased IL2 and natural killer cell activity.
