aAnion gap is the quantity difference between cations (positively charged ions) and anions (negatively charged ions).
bAnion gap K+ (mmol/L) is difference between the concentration of the cations (sodium and potassium), and the measured anions (chloride and bicarbonate).
cBold styled p values indicate statistical significance.
*p < 0.05, **p < 0.01, ***p < 0.001.
