Low potassiumTight junctionBackground:Bacterial translocation was observed in critical illness and patients with chronic diseases such as liver cirrhosis and chronic kidney disease (CKD). Hypokalemia is a common complication in these diseases. Whether low potassium diet may increase intestinal permeability ...
When the measurements of the blood flow were complete, rats were euthanized with potassium chloride. Total RNA extraction Bladders were harvested from animals without undergoing cystometry and stored at − 80 °C. Total RNA was isolated from all groups using the RNeasy Mini Kit (QIAGEN, ...
Idiopathic membranous nephropathy (iMN) is the major cause of end-stage renal disease (ESRD). Recent guidelines suggest limiting immunosuppressants only to high risk patients for ESRD. The present study is aimed at identifying new predictors for the rena

What is anion gap without potassium? The reference range for the anion gap is as follows: 16 ± 4 mEq/L (if the calculation employs potassium)12 ± 4 mEq/L(if the calculation does not employ potassium) What accounts for normal anion gap?

serum potassium values (<5.5 mmol/L) and creatinine values of ≦2.0 mg/dL or ≦180 mmol/L. Patients were excluded from enrollment if they: (1) were diagnosed with either an acute life-threatening disease (included patients with automatic implantable cardioverter/defibrillator), valvular disease,...
Laboratory studies showed plasma glucose, 8 mg/dl (0.44 mmole/liter); normal serum sodium, potassium and chloride; serum bicarbonate, 19 mmole/liter; and moderate ketonuria. He was transferred to Children's Hospital of Phila- delphia where additional laboratory tests showed an elevated blood ...
