Excerpt

We want to thank Drs. Chiarla and Giovannini for their interest and their insightful comments on our study [1, 2]. We absolutely agree with the conclusion that PcvaCO2/CavO2 reflects not only the ongoing anaerobic CO2 production, but also the buffer power of blood [2], and we congratulate Chiarla and Giovannini for their concise physiological elucidation. We also believe that the combination of these effects is highly responsible for the enhanced prognostic significance of this variable. …
