The major causes are lactic acidosis, ketoacidosis, kidney disease, and ingestions (Table 21–12). A useful mnemonic for the differential diagnosis of increased anion gap metabolic acidosis is GOLDMARK (glycols [ethylene glycol and propylene glycol], oxoproline, L-lactate, D-lactate, methanol, aspirin, renal failure, and ketoacidosis) (Table 21–13).
