The APS Journal Legacy Content is the corpus of 100 years of historical scientific research from the American Physiological Society research journals. This package goes back to the first issue of each of the APS journals including the American Journal of Physiology, first published in 1898.

height of the disease and in some instances in the post-febrile period.The results when plotted on the Van Slyke acid-base diagram, SO modified as to include iso-CO, tension lines, indicated that almost all of the points were well within the normal acid-base areaL. No instance of uncompensated acidosis was encountered.I n three cases the points fell just outside the normal acid-base area in the compensated acidosis region. One of these patients was afebrile at the time and the other two were suffering from renal disorders. In no instance was there an acidosis of sufficient severity to indicate the advisability of bicarbonate therapy. It has been concluded from the observations thus far that the acid-base condition of patients suffering from pneumonia is usually within normal pH, CO, content and COz tension limits.In eight instances in which we have made repeated observations of the acid-base condition of the same patients we have found evidence that during the febrile period, the CO, tension has a tendency to be lower and the pH higher than after the temperature has returned to normal. These results indicate that during the febrile period there is over-stimulation of the respiratory mechanism which leads to a lower CO, tension and a slightly higher pH but that this disturbance does not usually remove the patient from a normal acid-base condition. No direct relation has been found between the degree of oxygen unsaturation and the low CO, tension of the febrile period.

scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
