Predictive factors of durability to sitagliptin: Slower reduction of glycated hemoglobin, older age and higher baseline glycated hemoglobin
AIMS/INTRODUCTION The goal of the present study was to evaluate predictive factors for good efficacy and durability to sitagliptin with ongoing metformin or metformin plus glimepiride therapy in a real practice situation. The present observational study was carried out over a 60-week period and involved Korean patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus. MATERIALS AND METHODS A total of 100 mg of ...
متن کاملGlycated hemoglobin and associated risk factors in older adults
BACKGROUND The aim of this study is to investigate the relationships between HbA1c and other risk factors like obesity, functional fitness, lipid profile, and inflammatory status in older adults. Epidemiological evidence suggests that HbA1c is associated with cardiovascular and ischemic heart disease risk. Excess of body weight and obesity are considered to play a central role in the developmen...
متن کاملBiological variability of glycated hemoglobin.
BACKGROUND The measurement of glycated hemoglobin (HbA(1c)) has a pivotal role in monitoring glycemic state in diabetic patients. Furthermore, the American Diabetes Association has recently recommended the use of HbA(1c) for diabetes diagnosis, but a clear definition of the clinically allowable measurement error is still lacking. Information on biological variability of the analyte can be used ...
متن کاملGlycated hemoglobin in fractionated erythrocytes.
Erythrocytes were fractionated, by centrifugation, on the basis of cell density, which is proportional to cell age. Glycated hemoglobin (Hb A1c) in the fractionated cells was measured and compared with the Hb A1c in whole blood and with the fructosamine concentrations in plasma of normal and diabetic subjects. In normal subjects, Hb A1c increased according to the age of the erythrocytes, but hy...
متن کاملEffects of thyroid status on glycated hemoglobin
INTRODUCTION Glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) can be altered in different conditions. We hypothesize that HbA1c levels may change due to altered thyroid status, possibly due to changes in red blood cell (RBC) turnover. OBJECTIVES The objective of this study was to determine the effects of altered thyroid status on HbA1c levels in individuals without diabetes, with overt hyper- and hypo-thyroidism,...
