The Mean

Both adult and newborn blood plasma potassium concentration rose significantly when whole blood was kept on ice for periods of 5 hours. This appears to be due to inhibition of red cell glycolysis. The rise in plasma potassium concentration of blood from newborn infants is significantly greater than that occurring in blood from adults; this difference is a function of the neonate's increased red cell volume. Meaningful interpretation of potassium concentration, particularly in the newly born, demands that the plasma be separated immediately. The plasma potassium concentration of normal newborns at birth does not differ significantly from adults; in this study the mean value in 20 infants was 4.81 mEq/l.

We studied the effect of bicarbonate and acetate on oxygenation during dialysis in ten male chronic dialysis patients. The dialysis delivery system and dialysate constituents were identical except for the use of either bicarbonate or acetate. We found no hemodynamic differences between the two kinds of dialysis. Blood PO2 fell by a similar amount, but blood PCO2 was higher during bicarbonate dialysis. The blood pH became alkalotic by the second hour of bicarbonate dialysis and remained so throughout the dialysis, whereas blood pH became alkalotic only at the end of acetate dialysis. The P50 increased significantly only during bicarbonate dialysis, but 2.3 DPG concentration did not change. Red cell volume, assessed by the mean corpuscular hemoglobin concentration, was unchanged. Without changes in the red cell volume we cannot explain the observed changes in P50 in the absence of concomitant changes in 2.3 DPG concentration.

Abstract In a series of 176 consecutive patients with hepatocarcinoma an increase in red cell count and in hemoglobin significantly above normal levels were encountered in 17 (10 per cent). An investigation of 28 patients with hepatocarcinoma developing in a cirrhotic liver is reported. In three of the patients (10 per cent), the red cell counts and hemoglobin levels were significantly above those encountered in healthy Chinese. In these 28 patients it has been shown that the plasma volume is increased, and this increase does not differ significantly from that encountered in uncomplicated cirrhosis of the liver. The total red cell volume, on the other hand, is significantly greater than in uncomplicated cirrhosis of the liver. While the mean total red cell volume in hepatocarcinoma is not significantly different from that in healthy controls, consideration of this finding in individual patients shows that it was above normal in 17, normal in six, and in the remaining five it was below normal. It is concluded that the polycythemia encountered is a true polycythemia secondary to the development of the hepatocarcinoma. The expanded plasma volume is considered probably attributable to the pre-existing cirrhosis of the liver. Unfortunately, in the course of this investigation we did not encounter a patient in whom the carcinoma had developed in a liver which was not cirrhotic.
