Introduction:

By reabsorbing bicarbonate that has been filtered by the glomeruli and excreting titratable acids and ammonia into the urine, the kidneys play a significant role in the regulation of acid-base balance. Acid retention and metabolic acidosis occur in CKD with diminishing kidney function, but the degree of acid retention is also influenced by the amount of dietary acid consumed.
