Increased production of organic acid can result in an elevated serum anion gap and may play a role in the development of hypertension. We studied the cross-sectional associations between anion gap and blood pressure and between serum bicarbonate and blood pressure in the 1999-2000 and 2001-2002 National Health and Nutrition Examination Surveys. We included 5043 adult participants who were not t...

BACKGROUND/AIM Acid-base disorders are common within critically ill patients. Physicochemical approach described by Stewart and modified by Figge gives precise quantification method of metabolic acidosis and insight into its main mechanisms, as well as influence of unmeasured anion on metabolic acidosis. The aims of this study were to determine whether the conventional acid-base variables are c...

The phosphine-coordinated Ag(I) atom in the title compound, [Ag(C(21)H(17)BN(6))(C(18)H(15)P)], is also N,N',N''-chelated by the tris-(indazol-yl)borate anion. The resultant N(3)P coordination geometry is tetra-hedral.

In the centrosymmetric tetra-nuclear title compound, [Ag(4)(C(12)H(10)O(2)P)(2)(CF(3)O(3)S)(2)(C(25)H(22)P(2))(2)]·2CH(3)CN, the Ag(I) atom is coordinated by one P atom from a bis-(diphenyl-phosphan-yl)methane (dppm) ligand, two O atoms from two diphenyl-phosphinate (dpp) ligands and one O atom from a trifluoro-methane-sulfonate (OTf) anion in a highly distorted tetra-hedral geometry. Four Ag(I...

background:poisoning with ethylene glycol (eg) can be fatal even if appropriate treatments are delivered. eg poisoning usually causes central nervous system depression, cardiovascular dysfunction, metabolic acidosis and acute renal failure (arf). case report:a 33-year-old man was referred to the emergency department with reduced consciousness and dyspnea of four-hour duration due to unknown rea...

The title coordination polymer, {[Ag(C(12)H(11)N(3)O)]NO(3)·H(2)O}(n), has a polycationic chain motif in which the Ag atom is bridged by the heterocyclic ligand; the Ag atom shows linear coordination. If the two long Ag⋯O(nitrate) inter-actions [2.794 (6) and 2.867 (5) Å] are regarded as bonds, the compound adopts a three-dimensional network structure. The water mol-ecule consolidates the netwo...

In the title coordination polymer, {[Ag(C(12)H(20)N(2)O(2))]ClO(4)·0.5H(2)O}(n), the Ag(I) cation is coordinated by two N atoms from two 1,2-bis-(4,4-dimethyl-4,5-dihydro-1,3-oxazol-2-yl)ethane (L) ligands in a nearly linear geometry [N-Ag-N = 171.07 (8)°]. The L ligand bridges adjacent Ag(+) cations, forming a polymeric chain running along the c axis. The lattice water mol-ecule is situated on...

In the title 1:1 silver 4-amino-benzene-sulfonate adduct with triphenyl-phosphine, [Ag(C(6)H(6)NO(3)S)(C(18)H(15)P)](n), the sulfon-ate -SO(3) unit bridges, through only one O atom, two phosphine-coordinated Ag atoms, forming a centrosymmetric Ag(2)O(2) rhombus. The Ag(+) cation adopts a considerably distorted a tetra-hedral coordination. In the crystal, adjacent binuclear mol-ecules are connec...

In the title compound, {[Nd(NO(3))(2)(C(6)H(18)N(3)OP)(4)][AgWS(4)]}(n), the central Nd atom of the monovalent cation is coordinated by eight O atoms from two nitrate and four hexa-methyl-phospho-ramide ligands. The monovalent anion, {[WS(4)Ag](-)}(n), forms a polymeric chain in a distorted linear configuration with W-Ag-W and Ag-W-Ag angles of 163.81 (3) and 154.786 (12)°, respectively. Thirte...
