چکیده

Serum fructosamine and glycated haemoglobin (HbA1) were measured in capillary samples from diabetic children and compared with samples from non-diabetic children. Glycaemic control was assessed clinically and by average daily glucose values recorded by home monitoring. Fructosamine correlated with HbA1 and with average glucose values measured over 30 days. HbA1 also correlated with average glucose values measured over 60 days. Changes in fructosamine with time tended to parallel those of HbA1, and advance indication of deteriorating or improving glycaemic control was possible by observing changes in these. Fructosamine has many advantages over HbA1 measurement such as speed, technical ease, and low cost, and is a reliable alternative to HbA1 estimation as an indication of glycaemic control.

Fructosamine or glycated haemoglobin as a measure of diabetic control?

Glycated haemoglobin A1 (HbA1c), fructosamine, and total serum proteins were measured in 30 normal and 61 diabetic children. The normal range for HbA1c was 4.7-8.8% and for fructosamine was 0.98-1.88 mmol/l. These were similar to adult normal ranges and there were no significant age differences during childhood. There was a highly significant correlation between HbA1c and fructosamine in the di...

Fructosamine and glycated hemoglobin in the assessment of glycaemic control in dogs.

Fructosamine and glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) concentrations were measured simultaneously in 222 dogs (96 healthy and 126 sick dogs). The dogs were divided into 3 groups according to the glucose concentration: hypo, hyper and euglycaemic dogs. Serum fructosamine concentrations were measured by the reduction test with nitroblue tetrazolium. A turbidimetric inhibition immunoassay and specific poly...

Correlation between fasting plasma glucose, post prandial glucose and glycated haemoglobin and fructosamine.

This study was done to determine the correlation between glucose monitoring by fasting blood glucose or 2 hours postprandial blood glucose with HbA1c and fructosamine in type 2 diabetic patients. A total of 82 patients from the Primary Care Clinic were enrolled in the study. Fasting blood was drawn for fasting plasma glucose (FPG), glycated haemoglobin (HbA1c) and fructosamine. Two hours after ...

The effects of ageing on glycation and the interpretation of glycaemic control in Type 2 diabetes.

To investigate the discrepancy in the assessment of glycaemic control using glycated haemoglobin (HbA1C) and glycated proteins (fructosamine), the effect of age on these variables was measured in non-diabetic individuals. In 232 non-diabetics, there was a linear relationship between HbA1C and age (r = 0.49, p < 0.0001). Mean HbA1C rose from 3.82% to 4.44% between the ages of 20 and 70. Conseque...

Serum fructosamine, serum glycated albumin and serum glycated β-lipoprotein in type 2 diabetes mellitus patients with and without microvascular complications

BACKGROUND Glycation of serum proteins has been proposed as an important mechanism of complications of diabetes but whether there are differences in glycation of different serum proteins and whether it has any correlation with development of microvascular complications has not been studied in depth. This study aimed to assess level of serum fructosamine, glycated albumin and glycated β-lipoprot...
