Lactic acidosis is characterized by a mean ruminal pH < 5.2 associated with high lactate concentration [27], whereas for SARA, where the condition is subtler, several definitions have been proposed [13, 28
Metabolic acidosis is a clinical disturbance characterized by an increase in plasma acidity. Metabolic acidosis should be considered a sign of an underlying disease process.
2 Hence, there is a spectrum of metabolic acidosis in CKD extending from eubicarbonatemic metabolic acidosis to an acid state characterized by low bicarbonate level and acidemia (Fig 1). There is a theoretical direct association between the severity of the acid state and risk for poor clinical ...
D-Lactic acidosis is a rare complication that occurs in patients with short bowel syndrome due to surgical intestine resection for treatment of obesity. The clinical presentation is characterized by neurologic symptoms and high anion gap metabolic acidosis. The incidence of this syndrome is unknown, ...

2. a pathologic condition resulting from this process, characterized by increase in hydrogen ion concentration (decrease in pH). The optimal acid-base balance is maintained by chemical buffers, biologic activities of the cells, and effective functioning of the lungs and kidneys. The opposite of ac...
The result is the hepatic metabo- lism of free fatty acids, which generates ketone bod- ies such as beta-hydroxybutyrate and acetoacetate [1, 4–6]. DKA is characterized by hyperglycemia lead- ing to osmotic diuresis, which causes dehydration and water loss, and electrolyte imbalances (...
Primary distal renal tubular acidosis (dRTA) is a rare tubulopathy characterized by the presence of hyperchloremic metabolic acidosis. It is caused by the existence of a defect in the function of the H+-ATPase located on the luminal side of the α-intercalated cells or the Cl− HCO3−...

No longer is the abbreviated celiotomy with staged definitive reconstruction seen as a sign of surgical insufficiency; rather, it is the sign of a surgeon who puts the well-being of the patient above the axiom to repair all injuries definitively although the patient is at the limits of ...
