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 ...

Inspiratory muscle training reduces blood lactate concentration during volitional hyperpnoea [PDF]
Although reduced blood lactate concentrations ([lac−]B) have been observed during whole-body exercise following inspiratory muscle training (IMT), it remains unknown whether the inspiratory muscles are the source of at least part of this reduction.
