Normal anion gap and its changes in high-anion gap-metabolic acidosis and normal-anion-gap metabolic acidosis

Graphical representation of the normal anion gap and its changes in high-anion gap-metabolic acidosis (HAGMA) and normal-anion-gap metabolic acidosis (NAGMA). The predominant cation (sodium) is compared with the sum of the common anions (bicarbonate and chloride), with the difference representing the "anion gap."
