Eligibility Criteria
You may not qualify if:
- CKD patients
- Plasma bicarbonate level \< 20.0 mmol/l
- Serum potassium \>5.5 mmol/l
- Sodium bicarbonate use in the month preceding the test
- Heart failure (NYHA III or IV)
- Liver cirrhosis (Child Pugh B or C)
- Blood pressure \>140/90 mmHg despite the use of 3 different anti-hypertensive drugs
- Kidney transplantation
- Use of calcineurin inhibitors (these immunosuppressive drugs affect acid-base balance)
- Known urea cycle disorder
- Alcoholism or drug use
- Pregnancy
- Current use of antibiotics, NSAIDS or alkalizing drugs (sodium-bicarbonate, citric acid, potassium citrate, acetazolamide)
- Inability to adhere to the study protocol (due to language barrier or intellectual disability)
- Healthy controls:
