Abstract
The renal metabolism of citrate has been studied in a patient with renal tubular acidosis. In accordance with previous studies, low citrate excretion was found during acidosis. The decreased clearance of citrate was related to an apparently high tubular reabsorption of citrate, probably due to decreased formation and secretion of citrate from the tubules. The amount of citrate metabolized in the kidneys was in the normal range. Low normal citrate excretion was found after correction of the acidosis. Correction of hypokalemia had no effect on citrate excretion.This publication has 8 references indexed in Scilit:
