any deviation from a healthy or normal condition

having or being characterized by acidosis

having or being characterized by acidosis

acidosis with an accumulation of ketone bodies; occurs primarily in diabetes mellitus

acidosis and bicarbonate concentration in the body fluids resulting either from the accumulation of acids or the abnormal loss of bases from the body (as in diarrhea or renal disease)

acidosis resulting from reduced gas exchange in the lungs (as in emphysema or pneumonia); excess carbon dioxide combines with water to form carbonic acid which increases the acidity of the blood

acidosis in which the acidity results from lack of food which leads to fat catabolism which in turn releases acidic ketone bodies
