Understand why routine lactate rechecks every 3–4 hours for days, prompting more fluids and vasopressors, can worsen outcomes.

Elevated white blood cell counts also appear to correlate with shorter overall survival in patients receiving standard induction chemotherapy plus cytarabine for acute myeloid leukemia. High serum ...

Patients with paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria (PNH) had decreased quality of life (QOL) and worse fatigue that could be linked to lactate dehydrogenase levels. Researchers found that levels of ...

Serum lactate levels of more than 4 mmol/L on admission to the intensive care unit (ICU) were associated with an increased rate of 60-day mortality in patients with acute kidney injury (AKI) receiving ...

Lactate is a byproduct of exercise and metabolism, fueling our brain when oxygen is limited. More recently, scientists have become aware of the many roles it plays in developing our nervous system.

Science has confirmed what sports lovers have always known from experience: exercise is good for the brain. It increases blood flow, inhibits stress hormones, and stimulates the release of 'feel good' ...

The International Brain pH Project Consortium unveils groundbreaking findings in a large-scale animal model study, indicating altered brain pH and lactate levels as a transdiagnostic endophenotype in ...

Researchers in Singapore have developed a wearable that bypasses the need to collect biofluid samples and can help detect medical conditions like strokes earlier. According to a report on the project, ...

A volunteer is monitored after being given a large dose of glucose to determine how well people switch from fat to carbohydrate metabolism as they age. In the tests at UC Berkeley, subjects had their ...
