For the past 5 decades, a bicarbonate-based approach has been the dominant method used for the diagnosis and treatment of acid-base disorders. This approach, however, has been criticized by some as (1) qualitative and not quantitative in nature and (2) incapable of detecting important diagnoses. Stewart, using principals of electroneutrality and conservation of mass, developed a "new" approach ...

Natural and anthropogenic indulgence in the form of industrialization, urban sprawl, population increase deplete water resources that entails immediate consideration. So, contemplating this need for eco-rehabilitation, drinking quality predicted contemporary research surface groundwater proximity Precambrian rocks (Chenab Nagar, Punjab) revealed poor status. Physical parameters (EC, TDS, temper...

Direct excitation and {1H}13C-CPMAS NMR allowed detecting carbamate–ammonium ion pairs, carbamic acid bicarbonate species in amine-modified silica sorbents.

Mouth breathing is a sign associated with Sleep and Breathing related Disorders Obstructive Apnea in children. The aim of this paper to provide comprehensive overview the changes human physiology when mouth and, how it may affect oral general health humans. potential reactions produced at cellular level those lead negative impact are presented. affects O2/CO2 exchange lungs, which production Hy...

An acid-titration method for the determination of bicarljonate and titratable acid in the one sample of urine is described. The method needs only one manipulation of the sample of urine, and was devised to simplify routine laboratory methodology. The accuracy and precision of the urinary bicarbonate method during routine laboratory use is comparable to that obtained by using the Van Slyke manom...

A dissected-leaved form of Ranunculus repens L. occurs in the temporary limestone lakes (turloughs) across the west of Ireland. Turloughs fill with groundwater for up to 8 months of the year. Under experimental conditions, these turlough populations demonstrated a higher rate of aerial and submerged photosynthesis than populations of the more typical broad-leaved ruderal form. The turlough popu...

A 3-year-old boy who had been exposed for at least 15 hours in an air temperature of approximately 0°C, was found to have a rectal temperature of 17°C about 20 minutes after he arrived at the hospital. He was rewarmed to 34°C in a bath of water at a temperature of 37-38°C during a period of 2 hours 15 minutes. He was also given large amounts of intravenous bicarbonate at the same time. Complica...
