Hypertrophic pyloric stenosis [PDF]
A 6-week old baby was brought to A&E by her parents, after a 3 week history of frequent vomiting, not tolerating feeds, and weight loss. She was well for the first 3 weeks of life, before she stopped tolerating any feeds. Despite several changes with the

Effects of acid-base imbalance on vascular reactivity [PDF]
Acid-base homeostasis maintains systemic arterial pH within a narrow range. Whereas the normal range of pH for clinical laboratories is 7.35-7.45, in vivo pH is maintained within a much narrower range.

Reninoma: an uncommon cause of renin-mediated hypertension [PDF]
Reninoma (juxtaglomerular cell tumor) is a rare cause of renin-mediated hypertension. Reninomas are usually diagnosed in adolescents and young adults with occasional reports in younger children. Patients typically present with a long history of headaches

In summary, the kidney possesses numerous mechanisms that help to prevent metabolic alkalosis. Maintenance of metabolic alkalosis for any length of time means that renal homeostatic mechanisms for HCO3- excretion have been disrupted. Understanding the mechanisms that may perturb the kidney's ability to correct alkalosis will lead to improved clinical ...

The Basic Principles of Acid-Base Regulation [PDF]
In summary, arterial gas studies including pH determinations can be vitally important in the diagnosis and management of patients with a variety of serious medical problems. These studies should be interpreted in the light of clinical and other necessary

Acid base status of prevalent peritoneal dialysis patients
Acid-base status of patients on peritoneal dialysis is influenced by multiple factors. Metabolic acidosis is a common feature of chronic renal failure and dialysis treatment provides alkali in the dialysate in order to maintain a normal acid-base balance.

Muscle carnosine metabolism and β-alanine supplementation in relation to exercise and training [PDF]
Carnosine is a dipeptide with a high concentration in mammalian skeletal muscle. It is synthesized by carnosine synthase from the amino acids L-histidine and beta-alanine, of which the latter is the rate-limiting precursor, and degraded by carnosinase ...

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 ...

A Rare Diagnosis in A Pediatric Case Without Metabolic Alkalosis; Bartter Syndrome
Inherited salt-wasting tubulopathies include antenatal Bartter syndrome (BS), classical (tip 3) BS, and Gitelman syndrome. BS is an autosomal recessive inherited syndrome associated with impaired sodium and chloride reabsorption in the renal tubule.
