<prompt> True about Anion Gap:It is difference between unmeasured anions and unmeasured cationsNormal value is 20 mEqLIn Diarrhoea anion gap is increasedAnion gap will increase if increases  <response>: The cation normally measured is Na, and the anions are usually Cl- and HCO3-. The anion gap is the difference between unmeasured anions and unmeasured cations and is estimated as Normal range: 8-16 mEqL Increase in chloride ion will decrease anion gap Increased Anion Gap Normochloremia Normal Anion Gap Hyperchloremia Diabetes mellitus ketoacidosis Diarrhea Lactic acidosis Renal tubular acidosis Chronic renal failure Carbonic anhydrase inhibitors Aspirin acetylsalicyclic acid poisoning Addisons disease Methanol poisoning Ethylene glycol poisoning Starvation
