I found this surprising: Data from 11 studies showed that patients had significantly lower peak lactate values than controls (Z = 3.44, p = 0.00001), with a large effect size (SMD = -0.84, 95%CI = -1.33 to -0.36). Heterogeneity was classified as substantial (I2 = 80%). Studies with low risk of...

I get the expensive-looking mailouts too.
