Nice talk Joel. Is there an error on slide 4? Chronic compensation for pCO2 40 to 65 should be 7.5 HCO3 and acute compensation for acute pCO2 65 to 114 should be 4.9 HCO3. So total compensation 12.4, to predicted HCO3 of 36.4?

Also, interesting cause of in the differential for met. alkalosis in HD pts is crack cocaine use (http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/16791405)
Fixed the error. Thanks.
Thanks for the crack link. I co-authored an abstract on that at NKF a few years ago
Is there an audio recording of this talk available
