Albert MS et al. Quantitative displacement of acid-base equilibrium in metabolic acidosis. Ann Intern Med. DOI: 10.7326/0003-4819-66-2-312. PMID: 6016545. Scope: expected PaCO₂ (1.5 × bicarbonate + 8, range ±2 mm Hg) during simple metabolic acidosis; measured PaCO₂ identifies an additional respiratory process. (1967)
