《急诊每日一题》乙二醇中毒与乳酸水平2021年3月

Question 问题：

Ingestion of which toxic alcohol will result in falsely elevated lactate levels, often obscuring the diagnosis? 

食入哪种有毒酒精会引起混淆诊断的假性乳酸升高？

Answer 答案：

Ethylene glycol metabolites are structurally similar to lactate and can interfere with laboratory assays for lactate, causing falsely elevated lactate levels. 

乙二醇代谢物在结构上与乳酸相似，干扰实验室乳酸检测，导致假性乳酸水平升高。
