Low serum total CO2 and its association with mortality in patients being followed up in the nephrology outpatients clinic
Abstract Large-scale studies have not been conducted to assess whether serum hypobicarbonatemia increases the risk for kidney function deterioration and mortality among East-Asians. We aimed to determine the association between serum total CO2 (TCO2) concentrations measured at the first outpatient v...
