    Area of Science:

    • Biochemistry
    • Physiology

    Background:

    • The relationship between plasma bicarbonate concentration ([HCO3-]) and CO2 tension (PCO2) is crucial in acid-base balance.
    • Previous studies, such as Madias et al., have explored this relationship using measured physiological values.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To re-evaluate the mathematical relationship between [HCO3-] and PCO2.
    • To determine the primary drivers of this mathematical relationship, independent of direct physiological measurements.

    Main Methods:

    • Calculated the relationship between [HCO3-] and PCO2 using randomly and uniformly selected total CO2 and pH values.
    • Utilized the Henderson-Hasselbalch equation for calculations.

    Main Results:

    • The derived relationships between [HCO3-] and PCO2 closely mirrored those reported by Madias et al.
    • The mathematical relationship is primarily dictated by the chosen ranges of total CO2 and pH values.

    Conclusions:

    • The mathematical equation linking [HCO3-] and PCO2 is mainly dependent on the selected ranges for total CO2 and pH.
    • This mathematical correlation should not be misinterpreted as direct evidence of underlying physiological processes.
