Persistent fetal haemoglobin and falsely high glycosylated haemoglobin levels.
Some of the routine methods of measuring glycosylated haemoglobin depend on its difference in charge from haemoglobin A and do not distinguish between glycosylated haemoglobin and fetal haemoglobin. Two insulin dependent diabetics showed persistent discrepancies between their capillary blood glucose values and their glycosylated haemoglobin values measured by agar gel electrophoresis: the blood...
متن کاملHaemoglobin O Padova and falsely low haemoglobin A1c in a patient with type I diabetes.
Glycated haemoglobin (HbA1c) measured by high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) in a 20 year old female with insulin dependent diabetes mellitus was consistently within the normal range although her daily blood glucose values were > 11.1 mmol/l. HbA1c measured by immunoagglutination and fructosamine was elevated and correlated with the patient's blood glucose values. The HPLC chromatogra...
متن کاملAberrantly high glycated haemoglobin measurement due to the haemoglobin variant Hb Santa Juana.
Various laboratory and patient-related factors can result in falsely high or low glycated haemoglobin (HbA1c) measurements, and haemoglobin (Hb) variants that interfere with laboratory readings is an important cause of this. We report a case of a rare Hb variant, Hb Santa Juana, manifesting as a falsely high HbA1c in a 62-year-old patient with type 2 diabetes mellitus. The patient presented wit...
متن کاملHaemoglobin A1C in children with sickle cell disease.
Despite the high frequency of sickle cell disease in Europe, the disease is poorly managed. Critical periods are the hospital stays during which the anaesthesiologist plays an important role. Understanding the molecular basis of polymerization processes of haemoglobin S can help to avoid triggering a crisis. Differentiation of the various haemoglobin phenotypes helps to estimate the individual ...
متن کاملSeasonal variation of haemoglobin A1c in a Portuguese adult population.
OBJECTIVE Haemoglobin A1c (Hb A1c) is routinely used for monitoring glycemic control in patients with diabetes. Hb A1c seasonal fluctuations can be directly related to different biological, geographical and cultural influences. Our purpose was to evaluate seasonal variation of Hb A1c in a hospital-based adult population over a period of 5 years. MATERIALS AND METHODS We analyzed retrospective...
