The following article, written in English by Michael A. Puskarich, Jeffrey A. Kline, Richard L. Summers, and Alan E. Jones, sought to evaluate the association between blood lactate concentrations along an incremental continuum up to a maximum value of 20 mmol ⁄ L, and mortality. The abstract of this article is available at https://www.laktate.com/en/information/lactate-in-clinical-practice/prognostic-value-of-incremental-lactate-elevations-in-emergency-department-patients-with-suspected-infection/, where […]

We are pleased to introduce the abstract of this review, written in Spanish by Luis F. Castro. This review aims to present the methods of measuring exercise intensity through blood lactate concentration, and the factors that may determine the objectivity of the measurement. The authors delve into this issue in the abstract of the article, […]

This article, written in English by Thea Bowler and Michael Beckmann, aims to compare the diagnostic accuracy of fetal scalp lactate and umbilical cord arterial blood gas values sampling, as it is used in clinical practice You can access the abstract of this article by clicking on https://www.laktate.com/en/information/lactate-in-clinical-practice/comparing-fetal-scalp-lactate-and-umbilical-cord-arterial-blood-gas-values/.

This article was written in English by J. L. Trilk, A. J. Lindner, H. M. Greene, D. Alberghina and S. J. Wickler. This study demonstrates that a lactate-guided conditioning programme can significantly enhance endurance performance over a 6-week time period when the conditioning protocol is adjusted every 2 weeks based on v4 improvement The abstract […]

We are pleased to introduce the following article, written in English by Ole Kruse, Niels Grunnet and Charlotte Barfod, which aims to examine whether blood lactate levels are predictive for in-hospital mortality in patients in the acute setting, and to examine the agreement between arterial, peripheral venous and capillary blood lactate levels in patients in […]
