Glycated Hemoglobin (HbA1c): Clinical Applications of a Mathematical Concept
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) reflects the cumulative glucose exposure of erythrocytes over a preceding time frame proportional to erythrocyte survival. HbA1c is thus an areal function of the glucose-time curve, an educationally useful concept to aid teaching and clinical judgment. METHODS An ordinary differential equation is formulated as a parsimonious model of HbA1c. T...
متن کاملSimple Screening Tests for Peripheral Neuropathy as a Prediction of Diabetic Foot Ulceration
Background and Objectives: Diabetes mellitus is one of the major health problems, and one of its commonest complications is peripheral neuropathy. The aim of this study is to evaluate four standard simple screening tests (10-g Semmes-Weinstein monofilament examination {SWME}, vibration sensation by a 128Hz tuning fork, superficial pain test and ankle reflex) for detection of neuropathy using th...
متن کاملDiabetic Neuropathy and Diabetic Foot
Patients with diabetes may present with an array of foot disorders that include, but are not limited to, neuropathy, ulceration, and osteomyelitis. Ischemia and infection are common clinical concerns as either, or both, may be involved in the pathogenesis of these disorders. Management choices can be difficult to make and diagnostic imaging is often sought to help clarify the clinical picture. ...
متن کاملThe Effect of Iron Deficiency Anemia on Glycated Hemoglobin (HbA1c) in Non Diabetic Adults
Background: Iron deficiency anemia is the most common form of anemia in India. Hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) is used in diabetic patients as an index of glycemic control reflecting glucose levels of the previous 3 months. Like blood sugar levels, HbA1c levels are also affected by the presence of variant hemoglobins, hemolytic anemias, nutritional anemias, uremia, pregnancy, and acute blood loss. Previ...
متن کاملGlycated Albumin versus Glycated Hemoglobin as a Glycemic Indicator in Diabetic Patients on Peritoneal Dialysis
Compared with glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c), glycated albumin (GA) is superior in estimating glycemic control in diabetic patients on hemodialysis (HD). However, the better index for assessment of glycemic control in diabetic patients on peritoneal dialysis (PD) and the impact of protein loss on GA are unknown. Twenty diabetic patients on HD were matched by age, sex, and baseline postprandial pla...
