The relationships between PCO2 and pH were determined in cell-free undiluted haemolymph of the arachnids Eurypelma californicum, Pandinus imperator and Cupiennius salei. The pH/bicarbonate diagrams and the CO2 equilibrium curves were calculated, using the Henderson­Hasselbalch equation, for haemolymph sampled at rest and during recovery from exercise. The calculations of solubility (alphaCO...

In the current study, the qualitative status of potable well water was assessed using the groundwater quality index during a course of 4 years (2014-2017). This study was carried out with an aim to monitor the drinking water resources from 12 potable wells on the multivariate analysis basis and for determination of groundwater quality index, the following 13 physicochemical parameters including...

Molar sodium lactate, sodium bicarbonate, sodium chloride, glucose insulin, and calcium chloride were used in the treatment of induced hyperkalemia in nephrectomized dogs. The effect of these agents on the electrocardiogram and on potassium partition was studied. Molar sodium lactate appeared to be the agent of choice in the treatment of the hyperkalemic state under these experimental conditions.

Hydrological studies were made for 6 months covering monsoon, summer and transition periods in a reservoir, chiefly to understand the plankton productivity. The physical factors like temperature, light, pH and chemical factors like dissolved O , CO , carbonate, bicarbonate, chloride, nitrate, phosphate, sulphate, calcium, 2 2 magnesium, sodium and potassium were estimated.

The authors discussed the results of the treatment of 50 patients who had been admitted to hospital with diabetic ketoacidosis. The purpose of the investigation was to prove the effectiveness and reliability of therapy of diabetic ketoacidosis using small doses of insulin in combination with the administration of a sufficient amount of liquid, potassium and, when indicated, sodium bicarbonate. ...

1. A cross-over study was done in twenty patients with hypertension to compare the effects of chlorothiazide (0-5 g twice daily) and metolazone (5 mg daily) in combination with other anti-hypertensive agents. 2. Compared with absence of diuretic therapy, chlorothiazide and metolazone both produced significantly lower blood pressures. 3. Blood pressures on metolazone tended to be lower than on c...

BACKGROUND Hypokalemia and paralysis may be due to a short-term shift of potassium into cells in hypokalemic periodic paralysis (HPP) or due to a large deficit of potassium in non-HPP. Failure to make a distinction between HPP and non-HPP may lead to improper management. Therefore, we evaluated the diagnostic value of spot urine tests in patients with hypokalemia and paralysis during 3 years. ...

Introduction According to a substantial body of research, electrolyte abnormalities are common manifestation in coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) patients and associated with adverse outcomes. This study aimed investigate imbalances COVID-19 assess their relation mortality.Methods Adult hospitalized the Security Forces Hospital Saudi Arabia from June 8th till August 18th, 2020 were enrolled t...

Preparation of Tissue-Studies were performed on the isolated urinary bladder of the toad, Bujo marinus. Animals were pithed and the two halves of the bladder rapidly removed through a ventral incision. The tissue was rinsed in Ringer’s solution before use. For the study of the oxygen consumption of various toad tissues, small intestine, stomach, heart, ventral abdominal skin, and skeletal muscl...
