Using Hemoglobin A1C as a Predicting Model for Time Interval from Pre-Diabetes Progressing to Diabetes
OBJECTIVE The early identification of subjects at high risk for diabetes is essential, thus, random rather than fasting plasma glucose is more useful. We aim to evaluate the time interval between pre-diabetes to diabetes with anti-diabetic drugs by using HbA1C as a diagnostic tool, and predicting it using a mathematic model. METHODS We used the Taipei Medical University Affiliated Hospital Pa...
متن کاملHemoglobin A1c in Diabetes: Panacea or Pointless?
Glycation is the nonenzymatic attachment of a monosaccharide to amino groups of proteins. The reaction has been recognized for many years in the food industry, where it is known as browning (also termed the Maillard reaction) and is responsible for the formation of commonly ingested items, such as toast. In patients with diabetes, glucose accumulation results in enhanced glycation of many prote...
متن کاملFasting Plasma Glucose and Hemoglobin A1c in Identifying and Predicting Diabetes
OBJECTIVE To compare fasting plasma glucose (FPG) and HbA(1c) in identifying and predicting type 2 diabetes in a population with high rates of diabetes. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS Diabetes was defined as an FPG level ≥ 126 mg/dL or an HbA(1c) level ≥ 6.5%. Data collected from the baseline and second exams (1989-1995) of the Strong Heart Study were used. RESULTS For cases of diabetes identifi...
متن کاملCompliance to Hemoglobin A1c Testing Recommendations Following Initial Diabetes Diagnosis.
• The hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) test is a marker for average blood glucose levels in the months prior to testing and is the favored measure of glycemic control for patients with diabetes. The American Diabetes Association recommends HbA1c testing every 3-4 months for Type II diabetes patients who use insulin or with results outside the HbA1c recommended range. • Individuals with HbA1c values in ex...
متن کاملHemoglobin A1c May Be an Inadequate Diagnostic Tool for Diabetes Mellitus in Anemic Subjects
BACKGROUND Recently, a hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) level of 6.5% has been determined to be a criterion for diabetes mellitus (DM), and it is a widely used marker for the diagnosis of DM. However, HbA1c may be influenced by a number of factors. Anemia is one of the most prevalent diseases with an influence on HbA1c; however, its effect on HbA1c varies based on the variable pathophysiology of anemia. ...
