Risk factors for candidemia: a prospective matched case-control study.

abstract：INTRODUCTION:Metabolic acidosis during hemorrhagic shock is common and conventionally considered to be due to hyperlactatemia. There is increasing awareness, however, that other nonlactate, unmeasured anions contribute to this type of acidosis. METHODS:Eleven anesthetized dogs were hemorrhaged to a mean arterial press...
