RESUMEN
Objective To investigate the correlation between serum bicarbonate level and cardiovascular events in peritoneal dialysis(PD)patients.Methods The data of PD patients who underwent PD catheterization and were followed up regularly until March 31,2023 were retrospectively collected.The included patients were divided into low bicarbonate group and normal bicarbonate group according to the time-averaged serum bicarbonate level.The incidence of cardiovascular events(including coronary heart disease,heart failure,stroke,peripheral vascular dis-ease,death related to cardiovascular surgery or death due to aneurysm dissection or rupture,fatal pulmonary em-bolism,or death from other or unknown cardiovascular causes)was compared between the two groups and the risk factors for cardiovascular events were analyzed.Results At the end of follow-up,a total of 110 PD patients were included,and 34 patients had cardiovascular events.Compared with the normal bicarbonate group,the low bicar-bonate group had a higher incidence of cardiovascular events.Univariate Cox regression analysis showed that the risk of cardiovascular events in the low bicarbonate group was 4.197 times higher than that in the normal bicarbon-ate group(95%CI=2.115-8.331,P<0.001).After adjusting for multiple confounding factors,the risk of car-diovascular events in the low bicarbonate group was 3.506 times higher than that in the normal bicarbonate group(95%CI=1.709-7.193,P=0.001).The results of multivariate competing risk model showed that the risk of cardiovascular events in the low bicarbonate group was 3.801 times higher than that in the normal bicarbonate group(95%CI=1.920-7.525,P<0.001).Conclusion Low serum bicarbonate level is closely related to the oc-currence of cardiovascular events in patients with PD,and it is an independent risk factor for cardiovascular events in patients with PD.
RESUMEN
Abstract Understanding the physiological concepts of oxygen delivery is essential to discern the mechanisms that influence its increase, reduction or maintenance in the body. This text explores the different mechanisms that help maintain oxygen delivery even in the face of reduced hemoglobin levels. Adequate oxygen delivery ensures tissue and metabolic balance, which is crucial to avoid harmful consequences such as metabolic acidosis and cellular dysoxia. The complex interaction between variables such as cardiac output, hemoglobin and heart rate (HR) plays a fundamental role in maintaining oxygen delivery, allowing the body to temporarily adjust to situations of anemia or high metabolic demand. It is important to emphasize that blood transfusions should not be based on fixed values, but rather on individual metabolic needs. Strategies to reduce myocardial consumption and monitor macro and micro hemodynamics help in making rational decisions. Individualizing treatment and considering factors such as blood viscosity in relation to the benefits of transfusion are increasingly relevant to optimize therapy and minimize risks, especially in complex clinical scenarios, such as neurocritical patients and trauma victims.

Objective:To investigate the application value of standardized outcomes in nephrology hemodialysis (SONG-HD) scale in evaluating the fatigue level of patients undergoing maintenance hemodialysis (MHD) patients and the factors that affect fatigue.Methods:A total of 201 patients undergoing regular MHD who received treatment in the Department of Nephrology, The First Affiliated Hospital of Xiamen University in April 2021 were included in April, 2021. The SONG-HD scale was used to evaluate patient's fatigue level. Fatigue was assessed using face-to-face interview questionnaire. Clinical and laboratory indicators were analyzed. Univariate logistic regression analysis and multivariate logistic regression analysis were performed to analyze the factors that affect fatigue of patients undergoing MHD.Results:Among the 201 MHD patients, 73.1% (147/201) had fatigue. The high-sensitivity C-reactive protein and parathyroid hormone levels in patients with fatigue were 0.91 (0.30, 3.63) mg/L and 216.00 (141.00, 347.00) ng/L, respectively, which were significantly higher than 0.40 (0.30, 2.01) mg/L and 153.00 (96.73, 308.50) ng/L in patients who had no fatigue ( Z = 2.12, 2.17, both P < 0.05). The pre-dialysis carbon dioxide binding capacity and blood albumin levels in patients who had fatigue were (21.03 ± 2.65) mmol/L and (36.76 ± 3.20) g/L, respectively, which were significantly lower than (22.68 ± 3.01) mmol/L and (38.61 ± 2.85) g/L in patients who had no fatigue ( t = 3.77, 3.73, both P < 0.05). Univariate logistic regression analysis showed that high-sensitivity C-reactive protein, pre-dialysis carbon dioxide binding capacity, serum albumin level, and parathyroid hormone level were related to the occurrence of fatigue in patients undergoing MHD ( Wald = 4.32, 12.39, 12.23, 4.66, all P < 0.05). Additionally, in a multivariate model adjusted for confounding factors, the independent risk factors for fatigue in patients undergoing MHD were relatively low pre-dialysis carbon dioxide binding capacity and serum albumin level ( Wald = 12.41, 11.67, both P < 0.05). Conclusion:The incidence of fatigue is high in patients undergoing MHD. The SONG-HD scale is convenient to use in assessing the fatigue level of patients undergoing MHD. After adjusting for confounding factors, fatigue in patients undergoing MHD is associated with reduced levels of pre-dialysis carbon dioxide binding capacity and serum albumin.
RESUMEN
The clinical data and gene variant characteristics of a patient with glutathione synthetase (GSS) deficiency were summarized. The child was born 15 min prematurely as a male infant with postnatal respiratory distress, metabolic acidosis, severe anemia, hemolysis, hyperbilirubinemia, and motor developmental backwardness. Blood and urine genetic metabolic screening showed a blood glutamate value of 1 343.1 μmol/L and a urine 5-oxoproline value of 1 873.7 nmol/mg creatinine. Cranial magnetic resonance imaging showed nonspecific subarachnoid widening. Whole-exon gene sequencing of the family line suggested that the GSS gene of the preexisting patient originated from paternal and maternal variants, respectively: c.632_633del (p.Gln211Argfs *8), and c.491G>A (p.Arg164Gln). Complex heterozygous variants of the GSS gene were the genetic etiology of the present case.
RESUMEN
An 11-day-old female neonate was admitted for cough with mouth foaming and feeding difficulties. The laboratory results indicated hyperlactatemia, elevated markers of myocardial injury and inflammation, and high levels of acylcarnitine octanoylcarnitine and decanoylcarnitine in tandem mass spectrometry. Ultrasonography and MRI suggested cardiac insufficiency and hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. Whole exome sequencing showed that both the proband and her elderly sister had a compound heterozygous variant of c.1492dup (p.T498Nfs*13) and c.1376T>C (p.F459S) in the ATAD3A gene, inherited from their father and mother, respectively. The diagnosis of Harel-Yoon syndrome was confirmed. The proband and her sister were born with clinical manifestations of metabolic acidosis, hyperlactatemia, feeding difficulties, elevated markers of myocardial injury as well as cardiac insufficiency, and both died in early infancy.

Abstract Introduction: Metabolic acidosis is a frequent pathophysiological condition in critically ill patients. It can be assessed using different physiological variables, but their prognostic value has not yet been well established. Objective: To evaluate the association between the variables that allow assessing the metabolic component of acid-base balance (ABB) and 28-day mortality in patients admitted to an intensive care unit (ICU) in Bogotá, D.C., Colombia. Materials and methods: Prospective cohort study conducted in 122 patients admitted to an ICU between January and June 2013 and with a stay >24 hours. On admission to the ICU, blood samples were taken, and an arterial blood gas test was performed in order to calculate the following variables: anion gap (AG), corrected anion gap (AGc), standard base excess (BEst), metabolic H+, base excess-unmeasurable anions (BEua), arterial pH, arterial lactate, standard HCO3-st, and strong ion difference (SID). APACHE II and SOFA scores were also calculated. A bivariate analysis was performed in which ORs and their respective 95%CI were calculated, and then a multivariate analysis was conducted using a logistic regression model to identify the variables associated with 28-day mortality; a significance level of p<0.05 was considered. Results: Out of the 122 patients, 33 (27.05%) died at 28 days and 51 (48.80%) were women. Participants' mean age was 46.5 years (±15.7). The following variables were significantly associated with 28-day mortality in the bivariate analysis: SID (OR=1.150; p=0.008), BEua (OR=0.897; p=0.023), AG (OR=1.231; p=0.002), AGc (OR=1.232; p=0.003), blood pH (OR=0.001; p=0.023), APACHE II (OR=1.180; p=0.001), HCO3-st (OR=0.841; p=0.015). In the multivariate analysis, only the APACHE II score variable was significantly associated with 28-day mortality (OR=1.188; p=0.008). Conclusion: The physiological variables that allow assessing the metabolic component of ABB, both from the Henderson model and the Stewart model, were not significantly associated with 28-day mortality.

Las variables fisiológicas que permiten evaluar el componente metabólico del EAB, tanto las del modelo de Henderson, como las del modelo de Stewart, no se asociaron significativamente con la mortalidad a 28 días.
RESUMEN
Objective:To summarize the clinical phenotype and genetic characteristics of one child patient with mitochondrial 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl-CoA synthase deficiency (mHS) caused by HMGCS2 gene mutation. Methods:One child patient with mHS who received treatment in Chongqing University Three Gorges Hospital on April 10, 2020 was included in this patient. The child was hospitalized due to cough, shortness of breath and deep coma. After admission, gas chromatography-mass spectrometry of the blood and urine samples and high-throughput whole genome sequencing were performed. The pedigree of the child with gene mutation was analyzed. The child was diagnosed with mHS. Related publications published by June, 2020 were searched in Wanfang database, Chinese Journal Full Text Database, PubMed and HGMD databases using search terms "mitochondrial 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl-CoA synthase deficiency", "HMGCS2" "mHS deficiency". Forty-three papers addressing mHS deficiency were retrieved. The clinical phenotype and genotypes of the child with HMGCS2 mutation were summarized. Results:As of June 2020, there were 44 children with mHS deficiency, including the child reported in this study. These children consisted of 15 males, 11 females and 18 unknown genders. Among these children, 29 were aged 0-24 months, 4 were aged > 24 months, 6 had no symptoms, and 5 were of unknown age of disease onset. The first symptoms of most children were fever, cough, acute gastroenteritis, and coma. Twenty-seven children had hypoglycemia, 21 children had metabolic acidosis, 15 children developed hepatomegaly, 16 children had increased FFA/D-3-HB, and 10 children were tested 4-hydroxy-6-methyl-2-pyrone positive. The child included in this study had hepatomegaly, elevated alanine aminotransferase and metabolic acidosis. Gas chromatography-mass spectrometry results showed that a variety of metabolites were increased. Tandem mass spectrometry results showed that C40 level was elevated, and long-chain carnitine contents were increased. High-throughput whole genome sequencing results revealed that there were two heterozygous mutations in HMGCS2 gene, (NM_0055) c.559+1G > A; c. 758 T > C heterozygous mutation. Sanger sequencing and parental origin analysis showed that the mutations in this child were from parents. The two gene mutations in this child were new mutations, which have not been reported in China and countries outside China. According to the criteria and guidelines for interpretation of ACMG sequence variation, the variation was determined to be pathogenic. Conclusion:When a child has hypoketotic hypoglycemia and/or metabolic acidosis, increased FFA/D-3-HB and acetylcarnitine levels, mHS deficiency should be considered. HMGCS2 gene examination can help diagnose mHS deficiency.

RESUMEN
Introducción: Las alteraciones del equilibrio ácido-base pueden ser de carácter primario. En la mayoría de los casos dependen de la complicación de una enfermedad preexistente. La frecuencia de estos trastornos es elevada, especialmente, en enfermos hospitalizados en las unidades de atención al paciente grave. Su aparición conlleva implicaciones pronósticas significativas. Objetivo: Sistematizar sobre el estado actual del manejo del equilibrio ácido-base. Método: Se realizó una revisión bibliográfica en la que se utilizaron las herramientas del método científico. Se examinó toda la bibliografía disponible publicada en los últimos cinco años y así, elaborar una síntesis crítica, acorde al criterio y las competencias de los autores sobre la temática. Resultados: Se expone la importancia de la evaluación clínica, que unida a los niveles de PCO2, y de exceso o déficit de bases en una gasometría arterial, permiten identificar el trastorno ácido base existente. Igualmente, se destaca que el CO2 tiene una función clave en el control de la ventilación, así como las modificaciones que produce al flujo sanguíneo cerebral, el pH y el tono adrenérgico. Otro aspecto importante fue la reciente práctica clínica de la "hipercapnia permisiva" para reducir el metabolismo tisular y de esta manera, mejorar la función del surfactante e impedir la nitración de las proteínas. Conclusiones: El manejo de los desequilibrios ácido-base debe ser del dominio de todos los profesionales vinculados a la asistencia médica, pues el retraso de su diagnóstico puede empeorar la evolución y el pronóstico de los pacientes graves(AU)
Introduction: Acid-base balance alterations can be of a primary nature. In most cases, they depend on the complication of a pre-existing disease. The frequency of these disorders is high, especially in patients hospitalized in critical care units. Its appearance carries significant prognostic implications. Objective: To systematize the current state of acid-base balance management. Method: A bibliographic review was carried out, for which the tools of the scientific method were used. All the available bibliography, published in the last five years, was examined; thus, a critical synthesis was prepared, according to the criteria and competences of the authors regarding the subject. Results: The importance of the clinical evaluation is exposed, which, together with PCO2 levels as well as excess or deficit of bases in an arterial blood gas, allow to identify the existing acid-base disorder. Likewise, it is highlighted that CO2 has a key function in ventilation control, together with the modifications it produces on cerebral blood flow, pH and adrenergic tone. Another important aspect was the recent clinical practice of "permissive hypercapnia" to reduce tissue metabolism and thus improve surfactant function and prevent protein nitration. Conclusions: The management of acid-base imbalances should be mastered by all professionals associated to medical care, since any delay in its diagnosis can worsen the evolution and prognosis of seriously ill patients(AU)

ABSTRACT: This study investigated the alkalinizing potential of an intravenous polyionic solution containing 84 mEq/L of lactate on hydroelectrolyte and acid-base balances in healthy goats.Four solutions, containing 28 and 84 mEq/L of lactate (L28 and L84) or bicarbonate (B28 and B84), were formulated. Six healthy Saanen goats were used. All four solutions were infused intravenously in each animal, one at a time, with an interval of 4-5 days between the infusions, at a speed of 33.3 mL/kg/h and totaling a volume equivalent to 10% of their body weight, in 3 h of continuous administration. Samples of venous blood and urine were collected at 0h (start of the infusion), 1.5h (middle of the infusion), 3h (end of the infusion), and 4.5h, 6h, and 24 h from the start of the infusion. The laboratory tests includeddetermination of blood pH, pCO2,HCO3 -, base excess (BE), Na+, K+, Cl-, total plasmatic protein, L-lactate, and creatinine. In urine samples, pH, Na+, K+, Cl-, L-lactate, and creatinine were measured. The L28 solution, equivalent to lactated Ringer's solution, caused a slight increase in the alkaline reserve and did not change the electrolyte balance. The L84 solution resulted in a greater increase in the alkaline reserve, equivalent to the B84 solution, with return to baseline values within 24 h from the start of the infusion.The L84 solution proved to be safe and produced iatrogenic alkalization when infused into healthy goats, without causing side effects.
RESUMO: O objetivo deste trabalho foi investigar o potencial alcalinizante de uma solução poli-iônica intravenosa contendo 84mEq/L de lactato no equilíbrio hidroeletrolítico e ácido base de cabras saudáveis. Quatro soluções contendo 28 e 84 mEq/L de lactato (L28 e L84) ou bicarbonato (B28 e B84) foram formuladas. Seis cabras, adultas, da raça Saanen, saudáveis receberam as quatro soluções por via intravenosa, uma de cada vez, com intervalo de quatro a cinco dias entre as infusões, a velocidade de 33,3 ml/kg/h, totalizando um volume equivalente a 10% do seu peso corporal, em três horas de administração contínua. Foram coletadas amostras de sangue venoso e urina antes do início da infusão (0h), na metade (1,5h), no fim (3h) e às 4,5h, 6h e 24h após o início da infusão. Os exames laboratoriais consistiram na determinação do pH sanguíneo, pCO2, HCO3 -, BE, Na+, K+, Cl-, proteína plasmática total, lactato L e creatinina. Nas amostras de urina foram medidos o pH, Na+, K+, Cl-, lactato L e creatinina. A solução L28, equivalente à solução de Ringer com lactato, causou um aumento leve na reserva alcalina e não alterou o equilíbrio eletrolítico. A solução L84 resultou em maior aumento da reserva alcalina, equivalente à solução B84, com retorno dos parâmetros avaliados aos valores basais em até 24 horas após o início da infusão. A solução L84 provou-se segura e produziu alcalose iatrogência em cabras sadias, sem causar qualquer efeito colateral.
RESUMEN
Currently, the use of sodium bicarbonate (SB) as an ergogenic supplement has been linked to improved performance in several high-intensity and short time interval modalities because it is a natural buffer of the body fluids of the human body. This study aimed to evaluate the acute effect of SB supplementation on muscle strength endurance of resistance training practitioners. Crossover clinical trial, placebo-controlled (PL), and single-masked, included 10 trained adult men. The maximum repetition (1RM) and exhaustion tests with 80% 1RM were performed in the extensor chair and direct thread. In all sessions, the volunteers were verbally stimulated, the total maximum repetitions in the exercises and the blood lactate concentration were measured. SB was supplemented at a dose of 0.3 g/kg body mass. Statistical analysis was performed using SPSS version 25.0. The ShapiroWilktest was used to evaluate the normality of the data, and the Student's t-test was used for independent and paired samples. The size of the Cohen's effect was calculated, and the significance level was set at p<0.05. Comparing the supplements, no significant differences were found in all variables tested. However, when comparing pretest and posttest periods, significant differences were found between lactate concentrations, with considerably large effect sizes (> 1.00).SB supplementation by endurance training practitioners induces blood alkalosis, which reduces fatigue and possibly improves muscle strength endurance
Atualmente, o uso de bicarbonato de sódio (SB) como suplemento ergogênico tem sido associado a um melhor desempenho em várias modalidades de alta intensidade e intervalos de tempo curtos, pois é um amortecedor natural dos fluidos corporais do corpo humano. Este estudo teve como objetivo avaliar o efeito agudo da suplementação de SB na resistência da força muscular de praticantes de treinamento de resistência. Ensaio clínico cruzado, controlado por placebo (PL) e com máscara única, incluiu 10 homens adultos treinados. Os testes de repetição máxima (1RM) e exaustão com 80% de 1RM foram realizados na cadeira extensora e na rosca direta. Em todas as sessões, os voluntários foram estimulados verbalmente, foram medidas as repetições máximas totais nos exercícios e a concentração de lactato sanguíneo. O SB foi suplementado na dose de 0,3 g / kg de massa corporal. A análise estatística foi realizada no SPSS versão 25.0. O teste Shapiro-Wilk foi usado para avaliar a normalidade dos dados, e o teste t de Student foi usado para amostras independentes e emparelhadas. O tamanho do efeito de Cohen foi calculado e o nível de significância foi estabelecido em p <0,05. Comparando os suplementos, não foram encontradas diferenças significativas em todas as variáveis testadas. No entanto, ao comparar os períodos pré e pós-teste, foram encontradas diferenças significativas entre as concentrações de lactato, com tamanhos de efeito consideravelmente grandes (> 1,00). A suplementação de SB por praticantes de treinamento de resistência induz alcalose no sangue, o que reduz a fadiga e possivelmente melhora a resistência da força muscular.

Background: Umbilical cord blood gas assessment seems to be the most objective determination of fetal metabolic condition at the time of birth and can be used to assess the perinatal outcome of the baby. In the early stage of an impaired placental circulation, hypoxemia and hypercapnia result in a decrease in pH with BD maintained normal (respiratory acidemia), whereas if the hypoxic process develops into a sustained anaerobic metabolism the BD rises secondary to lactic acidosis and consumption of buffer.Methods: Observational study done in KIMS hospital Bangalore, Karnataka, India, in a study period of 18 months on a sample size of 100. Within 30 sec of delivery a segment of umbilical cord was clamped at both ends. Cord blood was collected in heparinised syringe. It was then transported with cold ice packs and blood pH, pCO2, pO2 were measured.Results: In present study, there was a significant difference between the 2 groups in terms of BE, BE being highest in the group without complication. There was a moderate negative correlation between duration of NICU stay (days) and BE (mmol/L), and this correlation was statistically significant. There was a significant difference between the 2 groups in terms of BE with the median BE (mmol/L) being highest in the group not requiring resuscitation. At a cutoff of BE (mmol/L) <-17.5, it predicts complications with a sensitivity of 71.4%, and a specificity of 88.2%.Conclusions: Hence cord blood base excess can be used as a prognostic factor in determining the perinatal outcome.
RESUMEN
Objective: To analyze the reasons of rhabdomyolysis (RM) misdiagnosed with diabetetic ketoacidosis (DKA), to clarify the mechanisms of metabolic acidosis caused by RM and DKA, and to enhance the clinical understanding of RM and metabolic acidosis. Methods: The general situation, clinical manifestation, laboratory examination results of the patient who was admitted with DKA and was diagnosed as RM in our department, were collected. Based on the literatures, the causes and manifestations of RM, as well as the treatments and prognosis of the acute kidney injure (AKD induced by RM, and the reasons of RM of the presented patient were analyzed; the similiarities and differences of the mechanisms and treatments of metabolic acidosis caused by AKI induced by RM and DKA were discussed. Results: The patient who was a 56 year-old female with hyperlycemia for 15 years, and fatigue, nausea and vomiting for 4 d was admitted. The physical examination results showed facial edema, dry tongue, poor skin elasticity, heart rate 110 min-1, severe depressed edema of extremities, muscle strength IT level. The anxiliary examination results demonstrated that the levels of blood muscle enzymes, myoglobin, urea nitrogen and creatinine were increased; the blood gas analysis indicated metabolic acidosis, accompanying with electrolyte disturbance and abnormal blood routine. According to the history, symptoms and signs, as well as the laboratory test results, the patient was diagnosed as RM, AKI, metabolic acidosis combined with respriatory alkalosis, electrolyte disturbance, and so on. The clinical symptoms and signs of the patient were recovered, and the blood creatine kinase, myoglobin and renal fuction were significantly improved after the treatment of adequate volume replacement, alkalization and protection of vital organs; the patient had a good prognosis. Conclusion: The diabetic patients may suffer from metabolic acidosis due to various causes which should be paid attention to differential diagnosis. There are some differences of the mechanisms and treatments of metabolic acidosis caused by AKI and DKA. If given the treatment of adequate volume replacement, alkalization early and aggressively, the metabolic acidosis caused by RM combined with AKI can have an excellent prognosis.
RESUMEN
AIM: To observe whether tight control of metabolic acidosis by infusion of 5% sodium bicarbonate can improve early post-operative renal function in living renal transplant recipients. METHODS: A total of 120 patients who underwent living donor renal transplant surgery in the First Affiliated Hospital of University of Science and Technology of China from March 2019 to March 2020, ASA Ⅲ-Ⅳ, were randomly divided into observation group and control group using random digits table. In observation group, 5% sodium bicarbonate was infused intra-operatively according to Base Excess (BE) measurements to achieve the normal values of BE (-3 to +3 mmol/L). In control group, infusion of 5% sodium bicarbonate was allowed only in case of severe metabolic acidosis (BE≤-10 mmol/L or pH≤7.25). Minute ventilation was adjusted to keep PaCO2 within the normal range. Hemodynamic parameters of two groups were recorded before anesthesia (T0), 10 minutes after induction of anesthesia (T1), before opening of renal artery (T2), 5 minutes after opening renal artery (T3) and the end of surgery (T4). The amount of bleeding, infusion fluid and operative time were recorded. Creatinine, urea nitrogen, urine outputs were recorded on days 1, 2, 3, 7, 30 after surgery. RESULTS: Compared with the control group, the amount of 5% sodium bicarbonate was significantly increased, the phenylephrine was decreased in the observation group (P<0.05), there was no indication of 5% sodium bicarbonate infusion in control group; the pH and BE in observation group were significantly higher than that in control group at the end of surgery (P<0.05). The MAP and CVP of both groups at T3 were lower than before anesthesia (P<0.05).The creatinine and urea nitrogen of observation group was lower than control group on days 1, 2, 3, 7 after surgery (P<0.05). The urine volume of observation group was higher than control group on days 1, 2, 3 after surgery(P<0.05). CONCLUSION: Intraoperative tight control of metabolic acidosis by infusion of 5% sodium bicarbonate in living renal transplant recipients may improve early post-operative renal function.
RESUMEN
Abstract Introduction: The evaluation of metabolism and the diagnostic classification of acid-base disorders has generated great controversy. Acid-base balance (ABB) is approached by means of the physicochemical and Henderson's models. Objective: To compare two diagnostic approaches to ABB in patients with severe sepsis. Materials and methods: Prospective, descriptive study conducted in patients with severe sepsis. ABB was analyzed within the first 24 hours. The diagnosis was compared according to each model and the causes of the disorders were compared according to the physicochemical model. Results: 38 patients were included in the study, of which 21 (55%) were women; the mean age was 49 years, the median APACHE II, 13.28, and the mortality at 28 days, 24.3%. The traditional approach identified 8 patients with normal ABB, 20 with metabolic acidosis, and 10 with other disorders. Based on the physicochemical model, all subjects had acidosis and metabolic alkalosis. Increased strong ion difference (SID) was the most frequently observed disorder. Conclusion: The physicochemical model was useful to diagnose more patients with acid-base disorders. According to these results, all cases presented with acidosis and metabolic alkalosis; the most frequent proposed mechanism of acidosis was elevated SID. The nature of these disorders and their clinical relevance is yet to be established.
Resumen Introducción. Existe gran controversia en la evaluación del componente metabólico y en la clasificación diagnóstica de las alteraciones del equilibrio ácido-base (EAB), el cual se aborda mediante los modelos físico-químico y de Henderson. Objetivo. Comparar dos enfoques diagnósticos del EAB en pacientes con sepsis severa. Materiales y métodos. Estudio descriptivo prospectivo realizado en pacientes con sepsis severa. Se analizó el EAB en las primeras 24 horas; el diagnóstico se comparó según cada modelo y las causas de alteraciones, según el modelo físico-químico. Resultados. Se analizaron 38 pacientes (55% mujeres) con edad promedio de 49 años, mediana APACHE II de 13 y mortalidad a 28 días del 24.3%. El enfoque tradicional identificó 8 pacientes con EAB normal, 20 con acidosis metabólica y 10 con otros trastornos. En el modelo físico-químico, los 38 pacientes tuvieron alteraciones denominadas acidosis y alcalosis metabólica; el aumento de la brecha de iones fuertes (SIG, por su sigla en inglés) fue la más frecuente. Conclusión. El modelo físico-químico diagnosticó más pacientes con alteraciones ácido-base. Según este, todos tuvieron acidosis y alcalosis metabólica y el mecanismo propuesto más frecuente de acidosis fue el SIG elevado. La naturaleza de estas alteraciones y su significado clínico está por definirse.
RESUMEN
Pseudo hypoaldosteronism type 1B (PHA1B) is a systemic form of salt wasting. Children present after the first week of life with typical symptoms of an adrenal crisis. PHA1B is caused by autosomal recessive homozygous mutations in genes encoding epithelial sodium channels (ENaC) subunits ?, ? and ?. ENaC are widespread and present in renal tubules, airways, colon, sweat and salivary glands. Electrolyte imbalance is significant with severe hyponatremia, hyperkalemia and metabolic acidosis. In early life until approximately one year of age electrolytes remain unstable despite active management but then gradually improve. The mainstay of treatment is high dose salt replacement, sodium bicarbonate and sodium polystyrene therapy. The adequate treatment and monitoring can result in normal physical and psychomotor development. We present a case of PHA1B with severe intractable electrolyte imbalances in neonatal period. The genetic sequence revealed a novel homozygous deletion mutation in exon 4 of the SCNN1A gene (c.942delC, p.N315Tfs*16).
RESUMEN
Resumen: Introducción: En los pacientes con choque séptico la acidosis metabólica es el trastorno ácido-base más frecuente, y el principal ion causante determinará el pronóstico en este grupo. Los estudios se han centrado en la estimación de lactato para determinar el pronóstico, aunque hoy en día sabemos que la acidosis metabólica en estos puede estar causada por el efecto, no sólo del lactato, sino también por el efecto del agua, del cloro, de la albúmina y de los aniones no medidos. Material y métodos: Se realizó un estudio de cohorte, ambispectivo, longitudinal, descriptivo y analítico. En aquéllos con diagnóstico de choque séptico y acidosis metabólica, ingresados a la Unidad de Cuidados Intensivos (UCI) en el periodo comprendido del 15 de junio del 2015 al 30 de julio del 2018. Se evaluó el riesgo para mortalidad de las variables: lactato, el efecto del agua, del cloro, de la albúmina y de los aniones no medidos. Todos los análisis estadísticos se realizaron con el programa SPSSTM 22.0. Resultados: En el periodo considerado, 87 cumplieron con los criterios de inclusión, de los cuales 46% fueron hombres y 54% mujeres. De éstos, 44.8% fallecieron durante su estancia. En el análisis multivariado, las variables con relevancia estadística, medidas al ingreso como factor de riesgo para mortalidad fueron: el efecto del agua con punto de corte > -0.75 mEq/L, presenta un OR 7.227 (IC95%: 1.831-28.5; p = 0.005), el efecto de la albúmina con punto de corte de > -4.75 mEq/L, presenta un OR 6.163 (IC95%: 1.786-21.2; p = 0.004). Conclusión: La acidosis metabólica va más allá de la adición o remoción de solutos, teniendo gran importancia la disociación del agua.
Abstract: Introduction: In patients with septic shock, metabolic acidosis is the most frequent acid-base disorder and the main causative ion will determine the prognosis in this group of patients. Studies have focused on the estimation of lactate to determine the prognosis, although today we know that metabolic acidosis in these patients may be caused by the effect not only of lactate but also by the effect of water, effect of chlorine, effect of albumin and effect of unmeasured anions. Material and methods: A cohort study was performed, ambispective, longitudinal, descriptive and analytical. In patients diagnosed with septic shock and metabolic acidosis, admitted to the Intensive Care Unit (ICU) in the period from June 15, 2015 to July 30, 2018. The risk for mortality of the variables was evaluated: lactate, the effect of water, the effect of chlorine, the effect of albumin and the effect of unmeasured anions. All statistical analyzes were performed with the SPSSTM 22.0 program. Results: In the period considered, 87 patients met the inclusion criteria, of which 46% were male and 54% were female. 44.8% of patients died during their stay. In the multivariate analysis, the variables with statistical significance, measures at admission as a risk factor for mortality were: the effect of water with cut-off point > -0.75 mEq/L, presents an OR 7.227 (CI95%: 1.831-28.5; p = 0.005), the effect of albumin with cut-off point of > -4.75 mEq/L, presents an OR 6.163 (CI95%: 1.786-21.2, p = 0.004). Conclusion: Metabolic acidosis goes beyond the addition or removal of solutes, the dissociation of water having great importance.

Na análise multivariada, as variáveis com relevância estatística medidas no momento da internação como fator de risco para mortalidade foram: o efeito da água com ponto de corte > -0.75 mEq/L, apresentou um OR 7.227 (IC95%: 1.831-28.5; p = 0.005), o efeito da albumina com um ponto de corte > -4.75 mEq/L, apresentou um OR 6.163 (CI95%: 1.786-21.2; p = 0.004). Conclusão: A acidose metabólica vai além da adição ou remoção de solutos, sendo a dissociação da água de grande importância.
RESUMEN
Biotinidase deficiency (BD) is an inborn metabolic disorder caused by low enzyme activity giving rise to impaired biotin release from dietary proteins. The first symptoms may be seen at first week following birth until 1 year of age. The goal of the therapy is to increase biotin bioavailability by daily 5-20 mg lifelong biotin replacement. Three-month-old girl born to nonconsanguineous parents, admitted to pediatric intensive care with multiple seizures, breathing difficulty and posturing. Blood investigations showed thrombocytopenia and high anion gap metabolic acidosis (HAGMA). Enzyme assay for biotinidase revealed low activities. Urinary organic acid analysis was normal. Enzyme activity is <10% in severe cases whereas between 10-30% in partial deficiency. BD can cause metabolic ketoacidosis, Hyperammonemia and organic Aciduria. BD behaves like immunodeficiency. Rarely bacterial infection can be seen. Treatment is lifelong biotin replacement.
RESUMEN
One of the ways to study cattle laminitis is its experimental induction by supplying a large amount of high fermentation carbohydrate. The most effective protocol until now has been the use of oligofructose. The objective of this study was to evaluate clinical and histological aspects of the hoof in experimental induction of ruminal acidosis and laminitis in calves using oligofructose. Six crossbred (Bos taurus x Bos indicus) yearling calves divided into Group I (GI) and Group II (GII) were used. Animals in GI and GII received intraruminal oligofructose in doses of 13 and 17g/kg, respectively. During 28 hours the calves were clinically evaluated and 30 hours after induction, samples were taken from coronary and abaxial wall of the hoof for histologic evaluation. Were noticed signs of ruminal and metabolic acidosis like rumen distension with fluid, diarrhea, ruminal pH reduction and, at blood gas analysis, pH and bicarbonate below reference range. Lameness was not observed however, some animals had a slower gait and apathy, possibly due to metabolic acidosis, though. Histologically, typical lesions of laminitis like circulatory changes and inflammatory infiltrate in the dermis, irregularities and areas of detachment at basement membrane and morphologic changes in cells from basal epidermis were found. The protocol induced, in the first 30 hours, clinical signs of ruminal and metabolic acidosis and low grade histologic lesions in the digits. Lameness and digit pain were not observed, characterizing the prodromic phase of the disease.(AU)
Uma das formas de se estudar a laminite bovina é sua indução experimental por meio do fornecimento de grande quantidade de carboidrato de alta fermentação. O protocolo mais eficaz até o momento foi o uso de oligofrutose. Objetivou-se avaliar aspectos clínicos e histológicos dos dígitos de bovinos na indução experimental de acidose ruminal e laminite usando oligofrutose. Utilizaram-se seis bezerros mestiços (Bos taurus x Bos indicus) de um ano, divididos em Grupo I (GI) e Grupo II (GII). Os animais em GI e GII receberam oligofrutose por via intrarruminal nas doses de 13 e 17g/kg respectivamente. Os bovinos foram avaliados clinicamente por 28 horas e fragmentos de coroa e muralha abaxial dos dígitos foram colhidos para histologia 30 horas após a indução. Foram identificados sinais de acidose ruminal e metabólica como distensão ruminal com líquido, diarreia e baixo pH ruminal. Os resultados de hemogasometria indicaram baixos pH e nível plasmático de bicarbonato. Os animais não apresentaram claudicação, entretanto, observaram-se apatia e marcha mais lenta, atribuídas à acidose metabólica. Histologicamente foram observadas lesões indicativas de laminite como alterações circulatórias e infiltrado inflamatório na derme, irregularidades e áreas de destacamento da membrana basal e alterações morfológicas de células da epiderme basal. O protocolo induziu, nas primeiras 30 horas, sinais de acidose ruminal e metabólica e lesões histológicas de baixa intensidade nos dígitos. Não foi observada claudicação ou sensibilidade nos dígitos, caracterizando a fase prodrômica da enfermidade.(AU)

Background: Electrolyte and acid-base disturbances are common in critically ill patients. Early appreciation and appropriate interventions to maintain this internal milieu are lifesaving and cost effective for the patients. Objective of the study: To analyze the effects of electrolyte and acid-base disturbances on hospital mortality in critically ill patients. Materials and methods: A retrospective case control study was done on 100 patients in the intensive care unit of our hospital for six months. Results: The incidences of electrolyte and acid-base disturbances were higher in non-survivors than survivors. The serum potassium value had both clinical (4.318 in the survivors vs. 4.815 in the nonsurvivors) and statistical significance (p=0.0298) between the survivor and non-survivor group. Arterial blood HCO3 (0.0304), CO2 (P=0.0396) and pH (P=0.015) at admission were statistically different between the two groups. The incidence rates of hyperkalemia (65%), respiratory acidosis (62.5%) and mixed metabolic acidosis and respiratory acidosis (65%) were higher in the non-survivor group. Conclusion: Electrolyte and acid-base disturbances hyperkalemia, respiratory acidosis and mixed respiratory with metabolic acidosis are highly associated with hospital mortality
