Violin plot of SIDa, SIDe and strong ion gap for the general population, lBE group, hBE group and hBE patients with strong ion gap above 6mEq/L. White dots: median values; Black boxes: interquartiles; Black lines: ranges; gray shading: density of observed values. $ p=0.01 versus lBE group; * p<0.01 versus lBE group; † p<0.01 versus hBE group. SIDa - apparent strong ion difference; SIDe - effective strong ion difference; SIG - strong ion gap; BE - base-excess.
