Rising serum sodium levels are associated with a concurrent development of metabolic alkalosis in critically ill patients [PDF]
Purpose: Changes in electrolyte homeostasis are important causes of acid-base disorders. While the effects of chloride are well studied, only little is known of the potential contributions of sodium to metabolic acid-base state. Thus, we investigated the
