Glycosylated haemoglobin: measurement and clinical use.
The discovery, biochemistry, laboratory determination, and clinical application of glycosylated haemoglobins are reviewed. Sources of error are discussed in detail. No single assay method is suitable for all purposes, and in the foreseeable future generally acceptable standards and reference ranges are unlikely to be agreed. Each laboratory must establish its own. Nevertheless, the development ...
متن کاملNew 13-Chain Variant of Haemoglobin A Found in Combination with Haemoglobin S
During a routine study of the parents of a 3month-old Jamaican child with the sickle-cell trait the father was found to have a haemoglobin electrophoretic pattern identical to that of homozygous sickle-cell disease. Because he was perfectly well and had no haematological abnormalities detailed studies of his haemoglobin constitution were undertaken. These indicate that he is heterozygous for bo...
متن کاملPersistent 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 کاملRegional variability in anaemia management and haemoglobin in the US.
BACKGROUND Regional differences in haemoglobin values and process care measures were examined using data from the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services' End-Stage Renal Disease (ESRD) Clinical Performance Measures Project. It was posited that regional differences in haemoglobin values are consequent upon differences in components of clinical practice. METHODS A national random sample of 83...
