There remains no consensus on the prognostic value of lactate in predicting adverse
outcomes such as mortality, rebleeding and higher intensive care unit (ICU) admission rates …

Background The incidence of rebleeding in patients with upper gastrointestinal bleeding

Lactate clearance has been suggested as a parameter for predicting patient outcomes in …

The predictive role of lactate in patients with nonvariceal upper gastrointestinal bleeding
(NVUGIB) has been suggested. This study evaluated several lactate parameters in terms of …
