TY - JOUR. T1 - Prevention of recurrent calcium stone formation with potassium citrate therapy in patients with distal renal tubular acidosis. AU - Preminger, G. M.. AU - Sakhaee, K.. AU - Skurla, C.. AU - Pak, C. Y C. PY - 1985. Y1 - 1985. N2 - Distal renal tubular acidosis is a common cause of intractable calcium nephrolithiasis. We examined the effect of oral potassium citrate therapy in 9 patients with incomplete distal renal tubular acidosis diagnosed on the basis of an abnormal response to an oral ammonium chloride load. Patients were studied during a control phase and after 3 months of potassium citrate treatment (60 to 80 mEq. daily). Potassium citrate caused a significant increase in urinary pH and urinary citrate, and a decrease in urinary calcium. The urinary relative saturation ratio of calcium oxalate significantly decreased during treatment, while that of brushite did not change. Potassium citrate also was shown to inhibit new stone formation. During a mean treatment period of 34 ...

Two male patients were found to have Southeast Asian ovalocytosis - one incidentally and the other one during the investigations of the aetiology for hypokalemic paralysis. Southeast Asian ovalocytosis is found almost exclusively in Southeast Asia (1, 2). Familial renal tubular acidosis can co-exist with south East Asian ovalocytosis in the same patient (2). Anionexchanger 1 gene AE1 mutation is the underlying pathology and both can originate from the same mutation (2). This can be asymptomatic as in case 1 and can be symptomatic as in case 2. Symptomatic patients need oral potassium and bicarbonate replacement and follow up. After initial clinical assessment and investigations of case 2, he was given intravenous potassium replacement. The correction of metabolic acidosis was made by giving oral sodium bicarbonate 600mg twice daily. Eventually he made full recovery and did not develop further similar episodes ...

The aim of this study was to identify the causative mutation in a family with an unusual presentation of autosomal dominant osteopetrosis (OPT), proximal renal tubular acidosis (RTA), renal stones, epilepsy, and blindness, a combination of features not previously reported. We undertook exome sequencing of one affected and one unaffected family member, followed by targeted analysis of known candidate genes to identify the causative mutation. This identified a missense mutation (c.643G|A; p.Gly215Arg) in the gene encoding the chloride/proton antiporter 7 (gene CLCN7, protein CLC-7), which was confirmed by amplification refractory mutation system (ARMS)-PCR, and to be present in the three available patients. CLC-7 mutations are known to cause autosomal dominant OPT type 2, also called Albers-Schonberg disease, which is characterized by osteosclerosis, predominantly of the spine, pelvis and skull base, resulting in bone fragility and fractures. Albers-Schonberg disease is not reported to be associated with

Introduction Acute metabolic acidosis of non-renal origin is usually a result of either lactic or ketoacidosis, both of which are associated with a high anion gap. There is increasing recognition, however, of a group of acidotic patients who have a large anion gap that is not explained by either keto- or lactic acidosis nor, in most cases, is inappropriate fluid resuscitation or ingestion of exogenous agents the cause. Methods Plasma ultrafiltrate from patients with diabetic ketoacidosis, lactic acidosis, acidosis of unknown cause, normal anion gap metabolic acidosis, or acidosis as a result of base loss were examined enzymatically for the presence of low molecular weight anions including citrate, isocitrate, ?-ketoglutarate, succinate, malate and d-lactate. The results obtained from the study groups were compared with those obtained from control plasma from normal volunteers. Results In five patients with lactic acidosis, a significant increase in isocitrate (0.71 ± 0.35 mEq l-1), ...

Osteopetrosis is a disorder of increased bone density due to defects in bone resorption. Several different forms are recognized and mutations in several genes have been described. Osteopetrosis, infantile malignant 1, 4, 5 (OPTB1; MIM 259700, OPTB4; MIM 611490, OPTB5; MIM 259720) is an autosomal recessive disorder caused by mutations in the TCIRG1, CLCN7, and OSTM1 genes. These genes code for the alpha subunit 3 of the vacuolar proton pump, the chloride channel 7 protein, and osteopetrosis associated transmembrane protein 1, respectively.. Malignant osteopetrosis patients have restricted cranial foramina, reduced bone marrow volume, fractures, deafness, osteomyelitis, short stature, genu valgum, large heads, and early death. CLCN7 mutations have also been described in both an intermediate autosomal recessive osteopetrosis and an autosomal dominant variant (OPTA2; MIM 166600). OPTA2 is a common form characterized by nontraumatic fractures, sclerosis of the spine with vertebral endplate ...

The appearance of a severely tachypneic patient can prompt the urge to intubate. However, one must keep in mind that the organ of toxicity for aspirin is the brain. Aspirin has a pKa of 3.5 which means in acidic environments it is more likely to be non-ionized. This allows movement across membranes, including the blood-brain barrier. Aspirin causes a direct stimulation of the respiratory center inducing tachypnea. Frequently, salicylate-toxic patients will have a mixed metabolic acidosis with respiratory alkalosis. Intubation of these patients can remove the respiratory alkalosis component which causes blood pH to drop and allows more non-ionized aspirin to enter the brain [4]. Patients with salicylate toxicity may rapidly deteriorate or die if intubated because their minute ventilation on the ventilator often do not match their pre-intubation minute ventilation. ...

OBJECTIVE: To identify the clinical characteristics, pathological changes, and outcome of patients with primary Sjögrens syndrome (pSS). METHODS: All patients with pSS and renal involvement who were admitted to Ruijin Hospital from April 1993 to December 2006 were included. All the data of clinical features and pathological changes were retrospectively analyzed. Forty-one patients underwent renal biopsies. RESULTS Our study included 130 patients with pSS: 122 women and 8 men. Ages ranged from 16 to 68 years (mean 44.1 +/- 11.52). Ninety-five patients (73.1%) developed renal tubular acidosis (RTA); 91 were found to have distal RTA. Nine patients presented with hypokalemic paralysis. Four patients developed Fanconi syndrome and 3 were proved to have nephrogenic diabetes insipidus. Twenty-seven of 130 patients (20.8%) developed tubular proteinuria and 18/130 (13.8%) presented glomerular involvement. Thirty-five patients (27.7%) developed renal failure (serum creatinine , 115 micromol/l). Most ...

RTA type 4, also called hyperkalemic renal tubular acidosis, is characterized by hyperchloremic metabolic acidosis, hyperkalemia, and decreased urinary NH4+ excretion.

Osteopetrosis, autosomal recessive 3 (OPTB3) [MIM:259730]: A rare genetic disease characterized by abnormally dense bone, due to defective resorption of immature bone. Osteopetrosis occurs in two forms: a severe autosomal recessive form occurring in utero, infancy, or childhood, and a benign autosomal dominant form occurring in adolescence or adulthood. Recessive osteopetrosis commonly manifests in early infancy with macrocephaly, feeding difficulties, evolving blindness and deafness, bone marrow failure, severe anemia, and hepatosplenomegaly. Deafness and blindness are generally thought to represent effects of pressure on nerves. OPTB3 is associated with renal tubular acidosis, cerebral calcification (marble brain disease) and in some cases with mental retardation. {ECO:0000269,PubMed:15300855, ECO:0000269,PubMed:1542674, ECO:0000269,PubMed:1928091, ECO:0000269,PubMed:8834238, ECO:0000269,PubMed:9143915}.

Metabolic acidosis is a primary reduction in bicarbonate, typically with a compensatory reduction in carbon dioxide partial pressure (Pco2); pH may be markedly low or slightly subnormal. Metabolic acidosis is categorized as high or normal anion gap based on the presence or absence of unmeasured anions in serum. The condition of metabolic acidosis occurs when…

The word metabolic indicates that the primary change that caused this acidosis is a decrease in standard serum bicarbonate. This decreases the [bicarbonate]:[pCO2] ratio (20:1). The lungs will respond by decreasing the pCO2 as well, which increases the ratio toward 20:1 again.. There are two types of metabolic acidosis: Those with normal anion gap and those with elevated anion gap.. The anion gap is a fancy term we use to include all anions in the serum that are not bicarbonate and chloride. The reason theyre called that is because the levels of these anions arent measured directly, but rather calculated by the following calculation:. Anion gap = [Na] - ([Cl-] + [HCO3-]). The reason this works is because we know that the plasma is electroneutral, meaning that there must be an equal amount of positive and negative charges. Almost all the positive charge in plasma comes from sodium, while the negative charge comes from chloride, bicarbonate and other anions that arent measured in the lab, ...

What is the connection between presenilins and Ca2+ loading to lysosomes? One obvious possibility is that the lysosomal acidification defect (Lee et al., 2010) causes reduced Ca2+ loading into lysosomes, as lysosomal H+ and Ca2+ homeostasis are closely related. However, Coen et al. (2012) did not observe a lysosomal acidification defect in their experiments with PS DKO cells, so a different model needs to be proposed to explain their result. I would like to speculate that reduced Ca2+ loading into lysosomes may potentially result from impaired ER Ca2+ leak function (Fig. 1 E). In previous studies, our laboratory demonstrated that presenilins act as ER Ca2+ leak channels, and that the ER Ca2+ leak function of presenilins is disrupted by many FAD mutations (Tu et al., 2006). An idea that presenilins function as ER Ca2+ leak channels is also not without controversy (Bezprozvanny et al., 2012; Shilling et al., 2012), but experimental evidence for this idea has been provided so far in multiple lines ...

Results did not allow risk reduction and NNT to be calculated. Previous studies of administering parenteral fluid and/or alkali therapy to neonates with metabolic acidosis have included infants with clinically suspected poor perfusion (e.g. low blood pressure, poor cutaneous perfusion). Other studies of the effect of early volume expansion on mortality and morbidity have included unselected preterm infants not known to have metabolic acidosis. We found only two studies addressing the benefit of administering intravenous bolus of albumin or normal saline to normovolaemic neonates with metabolic acidosis. They do not however provide a clear answer to the main question of this article in view of few methodological weaknesses. The first study was not blinded. The second study was not randomised and no placebo group was available. Although both studies reported an improvement in the pH and base deficit with volume expansion (although less marked than with bicarbonate), none of these reports included ...

The lysosomal acidification defect linked to cytotoxicity of mutations in the P-type ATPase ATP13A2/PARK9 in Parkinsons disease (PD) prompts comparison to the similar mechanism operating in AD due to mutations of presenilin 1. Dehay and colleagues used nearly the same extensive battery of methods as Lee et al. (2010) to evaluate autophagy and lysosomal function in fibroblasts from PD patients and other model cell systems. While the two studies implicate different lysosomal constituents in these two diseases, they reveal pathogenic mechanisms involving defects in lysosome function that are remarkably similar and mutually validating. In both diseases, a lysosomal component needed for acidification is prematurely degraded in the endoplasmic reticulum and fails to reach the lysosome in amounts required for full function. In early onset AD caused by mutations of PS1, the V01a subunit of the proton pump vATPase is improperly chaperoned by the mutant PS1 and is degraded during its exit from the ER, ...

Recently[when?], the large Parus group has been gradually split into several genera (as indicated below), initially by North American ornithological authorities and later elsewhere. Whereas in the mid-1990s, only Pseudopodoces, Baeolophus, Melanochlora, and Sylviparus were considered well-supported by the available data as distinct from Parus.[18] Today, this arrangement is considered paraphyletic as indicated by mtDNA cytochrome b sequence analysis, and Parus is best restricted to the Parus major-Parus fasciiventer clade, and even the latter species closest relatives might be considered a distinct genus.[19] In the Sibley-Ahlquist taxonomy, the family Paridae is much enlarged to include related groups such as the penduline tits and long-tailed tits, but while the former are quite close to the tits and could conceivably be included in that family together with the stenostirid warblers, the long-tailed tits are not. Indeed, the yellow-browed tit and the sultan tit are possibly more distant to ...

A case of a 42-year-old female with hyperthyroidism was subsequently diagnosed to have systemic lupus erythematosus with distal RTA. The clinical examination on admission showed swelling of the knee joints and the urinalysis showed pH 6.5, pro 3+. Her blood routine results were as follows: white blood cells 1.85×109/L, platelets 100×109/L, erythrocyte 3.06×1012/L. The serum potassium was 3.11 mmol/L, 24 hour urinary electrolyte: K 68.87 mmol/24 H, antinuclear antibodies (ANA) 1:1 000, speckled pattern. The anti-double stranded DNA antibody (anti-dsDNA), anti SS-A(52) antibody and anti SS-A(60) antibody were positive. The light microscopy and immunofluorescence showed diffuse proliferative lupus nephritis. These data were compatible with the diagnosis of systemic lupus erythematosus. The diagnosis of hyperthyroidism and distal RTA is clear. This report showed that other autoimmune disease in the diagnosis of hyperthyroidism should not be ignored.. ...

AU - Suzuki, Masashi. AU - Horita, Shoko. AU - Yamada, Hideomi. AU - Seki, George. PY - 2014. Y1 - 2014. N2 - Sodium-coupled bicarbonate absorption from renal proximal tubules (PTs) plays a pivotal role in the maintenance of systemic acid/base balance. Indeed, mutations in the Na+-HCO3- cotransporter NBCe1, which mediates a majority of bicarbonate exit from PTs, cause severe proximal renal tubular acidosis associated with ocular and other extrarenal abnormalities. Sodium transport in PTs also plays an important role in the regulation of blood pressure. For example, PT transport stimulation by insulin may be involved in the pathogenesis of hypertension associated with insulin resistance. Type 1 angiotensin (Ang) II receptors in PT are critical for blood pressure homeostasis. Paradoxically, the effects ...

A pancreatic fistula is an abnormal communication between the pancreas and other organs due to leakage of pancreatic secretions from damaged pancreatic ducts. An external pancreatic fistula is one that communicates with the skin, and is also known as a pancreaticocutaneous fistula, whereas an internal pancreatic fistula communicates with other internal organs or spaces. Pancreatic fistulas can be caused by pancreatic disease, trauma, or surgery. An external pancreatic fistula is an abnormal communication between the pancreas (actually pancreatic duct) and the exterior of the body via the abdominal wall. Loss of bicarbonate-rich pancreatic fluid via a pancreatic fistula can result in a hyperchloraemic or normal anion gap metabolic acidosis. Loss of a small volume of fluid will not cause a problem but an acidosis is common if the volume of pancreatic fluid lost from the body is large. First described by Smith (1953), and elaborated upon by Cameron et al. (1976), internal pancreatic fistulas can ...

Osteopetrosis (marble bone disease) is a descriptive term that refers to a group of rare, heritable disorders of the skeleton characterized by increased bone density on radiographs. The overall incidence of these conditions is difficult to estimate but autosomal recessive osteopetrosis (ARO) has an incidence of 1 in 250,000 births, and autosomal dominant osteopetrosis (ADO) has an incidence of 1 in 20,000 births. Osteopetrotic conditions vary greatly in their presentation and severity, ranging from neonatal onset with life-threatening complications such as bone marrow failure (e.g. classic or malignant ARO), to the incidental finding of osteopetrosis on radiographs (e.g. osteopoikilosis). Classic ARO is characterised by fractures, short stature, compressive neuropathies, hypocalcaemia with attendant tetanic seizures, and life-threatening pancytopaenia. The presence of primary neurodegeneration, mental retardation, skin and immune system involvement, or renal tubular acidosis may point to rarer

Both siblings were managed conservatively with antibiotics and transfusion support.. Discussion. Osteopetrosis is derived from the Greek words osteo bone and petrosis stone. It is due to defective osteoclast function or differentiation. The Nosology and Classification of Genetic Skeletal Disorders 20062 categorizes OP into severe neonatal/infant form, intermediate form, and late onset form. Also categorized are variants associated with renal tubular acidosis (OP with RTA), with ectodermal dysplasia and immune defect (OLEDAID), with leukocyte adhesion deficiency syndrome (LAD-III).. In autosomal recessive osteopetrosis (AROP), the most common mutation (60%) is seen in the TCIRG1 gene affecting the proton pump function involved in acidification of resorption lacunae.3 Mutations affecting the chloride channel (15%) and carbonic anhydrase (,5%) are others on the list leading to AROP.. AROP classically manifests within the first year of life (frequently within three months). Visual impairment due ...

Citric acid (citrate) is a weak acid that is formed in the tricarboxylic acid cycle or that may be introduced with diet. The evaluation of plasma citric acid is scarcely used in the diagnosis of animal diseases. On the contrary urinary citrate excretion is a common tool in the differential diagnosis of kidney stones, renal tubular acidosis and it plays also a role in bone diseases. The importance of hypocitraturia should be considered with regard to bone mass, urine crystallization and urolithiasis. (PMID 12957820 ) The secretory epithelial cells of the prostate gland of animals and other animals posses a unique citrate-related metabolic pathway regulated by testosterone and prolactin. This specialized hormone-regulated metabolic activity is responsible for the major prostate function of the production and secretion of extraordinarily high levels of citrate. The key regulatory enzymes directly associated with citrate production in the prostate cells are mitochondrial aspartate aminotransferase, ...

Background : The renal tubule plays an important role in fluid and electrolyte homeostasis. Diagnosis of renal tubular disorders is often too late because of the unspecific clinical symptoms. Early diagnosis and prompt therapeutic interventions can improve overall clinical outcome. Knowledge about their natural history is particularly important.

Calcium stones. Most kidney stones are calcium stones, usually in the form of calcium oxalate. Oxalate is a naturally occurring substance found in food and is also made daily by your liver. Some fruits and vegetables, as well as nuts and chocolate, have high oxalate content.. Dietary factors, high doses of vitamin D, intestinal bypass surgery and several metabolic disorders can increase the concentration of calcium or oxalate in urine.. Calcium stones may also occur in the form of calcium phosphate. This type of stone is more common in metabolic conditions, such as renal tubular acidosis. It may also be associated with certain migraine headaches or with taking certain seizure medications, such as topiramate (Topamax).. ...

Serum phosphorus (Phosphate) levels alone are of limited diagnostic value and should be correlated with serum calcium levels. An increased phosphorus with decreased calcium suggests either hypoparathyroidism or renal disease. A decreased phosphorus and an increased calcium suggests hyperparathyroidism or sarcoidosis. When both calcium and phosphorus are decreased diagnostic considerations include malabsorption, vitamin D deficiency and renal tubular acidosis.

Primary metabolic acidosis was the most common disorder in dogs, whereas mixed acid base disorder of metabolic acidosis and respiratory acidosis was most common in cats. Hyperchloremic metabolic acidosis was more common than a high anion gap (AG) metabolic acidosis; 25% of dogs and 34% of cats could not be classified as having either a hyperchloremic metabolic acidosis or a high AG metabolic acidosis ...

This page includes the following topics and synonyms: Metabolic Acidosis, Non-Anion Gap Metabolic Acidosis, Hypochloremic Metabolic Acidosis, Anion Gap Metabolic Acidosis, Metabolic Acidosis with Anion Gap, Metabolic Acidosis with High Anion Gap, Metabolic Acidosis and Elevated Osmolal Gap.

About Metabolic Acidosis Metabolic acidosis is a chronic condition commonly caused by CKD and is believed to accelerate the progression of kidney deterioration. Metabolic acidosis is estimated to pose a health risk to approximately three million patients with CKD in the United States and currently there are no U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA)-approved chronic therapies for treating metabolic acidosis. Metabolic acidosis is a serious condition in which the body has accumulated too much acid and occurs when a patients kidneys can no longer excrete sufficient acid or produce enough bicarbonate to balance acid production. The prevalence and severity of metabolic acidosis in people with CKD progressively rises as kidney function declines. As a chronic condition, metabolic acidosis is associated with an increased risk of CKD progression and death. It is also associated with an increased risk of muscle wasting and loss of bone density.

TY - JOUR. T1 - Concentrations of metabolic intermediates in kidneys of rats with metabolic acidosis. AU - Alleyne, G. A O. PY - 1968. Y1 - 1968. N2 - GOODMAN et al.1 have shown that there is enhanced renal gluconeogenesis in the rat with chronic metabolic acidosis. The enhancement of renal gluconeogenesis with glut-amine, glutamate, α-ketoglutarate and oxaloacetate, but not with fructose or glycerol as substrates, led to the tentative conclusions that in acidosis there is acceleration of one of the steps in the gluconeogenesis pathway distal to oxaloacetate. The results presented here represent an attempt to define that step.. AB - GOODMAN et al.1 have shown that there is enhanced renal gluconeogenesis in the rat with chronic metabolic acidosis.

Most symptoms are caused by the underlying disease or condition that is causing the metabolic acidosis. Metabolic acidosis itself usually causes rapid breathing. Confusion or lethargy may also occur. Severe metabolic acidosis can lead to shock or death. In some situations, metabolic acidosis can be a mild, chronic (ongoing) condition.. ...

Treatment of acute metabolic acidosis by alkali therapy is usually indicated to raise and maintain the plasma pH to greater than 7.20. In the following two circumstances this is particularly important. When the serum pH is below 7.20, a continued fall in the serum HCO3- level may result in a significant drop in pH.. ...

Metabolic acidosis is a metabolic state in the body where there is an increase of acid in the body fluids. Metabolic acidosis is also physiologically defined as the primary reduction in HCO3 ion concentration in the blood with a compensatory reduction in PCO2 ion levels while pH remains subnormal.… Metabolic Acidosis: Read more about Symptoms, Diagnosis, Treatment, Complications, Causes and Prognosis.

Alkaline urine increases removal of uric acid better than an acid urine. This was demonstrated by A. Kanbara and co-scientists in Japan. Uric acid is reabsorbed back into the body more easily from acidic urine compared to alkaline urine.. Protein-rich diets produce higher uric acid blood levels. Alkaline diets, rich in fruits and vegetables, produce less uric acid. University students were fed on one of these two diets for 5 days. Extensive urine and blood testing was done, and it took three days for the urine to stabilize after the change to the new diets from the students regular diets. Urine pH stabilized at 6.7 for the alkaline diet and at 5.9 for the acid diet.. At the end of the study, the students on the acid diets had higher uric acid blood levels and lower urine levels of uric acid than students on the alkaline diets. The acid diet reduces the clearance of uric acid from the body by way of the urine compared to the alkaline diet.. Alkaline foods can help remove uric acid from the body. ...

Metabolic acidosis occurs when the body produces too much acid. It can also occur when the kidneys are not removing enough acid from the body. There are several types of metabolic acidosis. Diabetic acidosis develops when acidic substances, known as ketone bodies, build up in the body. This most often occurs with uncon

A large body of work in animals and human beings supports the hypothesis that metabolic acidosis has a deleterious effect on the progression of kidney disease. Alkali therapy, whether pharmacologically or through dietary intervention, appears to slow CKD progression, but an appropriately powered ran …

4) Alkalosis (both metabolic and respiratory) causes increased activity of pH-dependent enzymes in glycolytic pathway that promotes lactate production. pH has to exceed 7.6 for this effect to show. However, in the presence of liver dysfunction, the lactate clearance will be less than normal and therefore, this effect may result in hyperlactatemia at lower pH. (Alkalosis induced hyperlactatemia is an undesirable consequence of alkali therapy for lactic acidosis ...
