Context: Postexercise urine lactate may be a novel biomarker of lactate production capacity during exercise.

Objective: To evaluate the reliability and utility of the urine lactate concentration after maximal swimming trials between different training protocols (6 × 50 m and 3 × 100 m) and training states (active and nonactive swimmers).

Materials And Methods: Lactate and creatinine were determined by spectrophotometry in blood and urine.

Results: Blood and urine lactate concentrations were correlated in-between training protocols and in participants of different training states. The reliability of the urine lactate concentration was moderate for one of the training protocols and good or moderate for the two training states. Additionally, it was lower than that of the blood lactate concentration, and did not improve after normalizing to the urine creatinine concentration.

Discussion And Conclusion: Although promising as a biomarker of lactate production capacity, urine lactate requires further research to improve its reliability.

Bile salt hydrolase (BSH), a probiotic-related enzyme with cholesterol-assimilating and anti-hypercholesterolemic abilities, has been isolated from intestinal bacteria; however, BSH activity of bacteria in bile-salt-free (non-intestinal) environments is largely unknown. Here, we aimed to identify BSH from non-intestinal and characterize its enzymatic function. We successfully isolated a plasmid-encoded () from , and the recombinant EfpBSH showed BSH activity that preferentially hydrolyzed taurine-conjugated bile salts, unlike the activity of known BSHs.

Metabolic acidosis (MA) is common in daily clinical settings and requires evaluation not only by serum anion gap (AG) but also by urine AG (UAG) and urine osmolal gap (UOG) to investigate potential causes and determine appropriate treatment. Herein, we report an educational case of non-gap (normal AG) MA (pH 7.16, HCO 8.

Unraveling the complexity: Case reports of drug-induced hemolytic anemia due to ceftriaxone.

Drug-induced hemolytic anemia (DIHA) is a rare but significant condition characterized by the premature destruction of red blood cells (RBCs) triggered by certain medications. Ceftriaxone, a commonly used antibiotic, has been linked to DIHA, presenting diagnostic challenges due to its diverse clinical manifestations. This study examines three cases of DIHA caused by ceftriaxone therapy at our center.
