Congenital chloride diarrhea (CCD) is caused by a recessive mutation in the SLC26A3 gene and characterized mainly by watery diarrhea, hypochloremia and metabolic alkalosis. Various different mutations in SLC26A3 are responsible for the disease.

Intermittent hypoxia interventions for inducing ventilatory acclimatization to high altitude?
Abstract Accumulation of ∼200 h of hypoxia exposure (pre‐acclimatization) has been suggested to prevent the development of acute mountain sickness when a person is subsequently exposed to high altitude. These pre‐exposures are typically undertaken intermittently at or near the place of residence, primarily during sleep in hypoxic tents, and are likely ...

Metabolic alkalosis acquired in intensive care: a retrospective cohort study
INTRODUCTION: Alkalosis is a common acid-base disturbance in intensive care unit (ICU) patients. We evaluated the epidemiology of metabolic alkalosis developing during admission to the ICU and its relationship with outcome.

Severe Metabolic Alkalosis and Thyroid Storm Mimicking Eclampsia in Pregnancy: A Case Report
Introduction: Seizures during pregnancy are most attributed to eclampsia, a significant cause of maternal mortality. However, other severe conditions, such as metabolic and endocrine disorders, can present similar clinical features, creating diagnostic ...

Exogenous ketosis in breath‐hold diving: Promise, paradox and physiological risk
Abstract Exogenous ketosis induced by ketone ester (KE) ingestion has attracted growing interest as a potential strategy to enhance physiological tolerance to reduced O2 availability. Reported benefits arise largely from KE‐induced hyperventilation, which can improve systemic and tissue oxygenation during altitude exposure and hypoxic exercise ...

Atypical presentation of cystic fibrosis: Obese adolescent with hypertension and pseudo-Bartter’s syndrome [PDF]
Introduction. Infants with cystic fibrosis may fail to thrive despite recommended caloric intake because of electrolyte disurbances caused by salt depletion resulting in hypochloremic metabolic alkalosis or pseudo-Bartter's syndrome.

The ‘lactate paradox’ revisited after 35 years: In memoriam Paolo Cerretelli
Abstract Some decades ago significant scientific interest was raised by the concept of the ‘lactate paradox’ occurring during altitude acclimatization. In short, in acute hypoxia blood lactate− concentration ([La]b) is higher, compared to normoxia, at any given submaximal work rate, whereas peak [La]b at exhausting exercise is unchanged.

Abstract figure legend During 10 h exposures to normobaric hypoxia exposure there was a selective leftward shift in ventilatory response to hyperoxic hypercapnic rebreathing, but not the cerebrovascular response. The key findings are that the resetting of the central chemoreflex to lower PCO2${P_{{\mathrm{C}}{{\mathrm{O}}_2}}}$ during early hypoxic ...

Abstract figure legend To investigate age‐related differences in ventilatory and cerebrovascular responses to exercise at high‐altitude, adults (n = 10, 23–44 years) and children (n = 8, 7–14 years) completed progressive cycling exercise tests at sea‐level and following 6 days of acclimatization at 3800 m.

Distal tubule bicarbonate reabsorption during rebound metabolic alkalosis
Rebound metabolic alkalosis is a transient alkalemia that is seen during recovery from NH4Cl-induced metabolic acidosis. The persistent elevation of plasma bicarbonate concentration is the result of continuing excretion of net acid by the kidney ...
