Glycosylated haemoglobin in dogs: study of critical difference value.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Measurement of glycated proteins can be of use in diagnosis and monitoring of diabetic dogs. Its use in monitoring can be facilitated by comparison of results with a reference interval derived from levels in normal dogs. In this study, a commercial immunoturbidometric assay was used to measure glycosylated haemoglobin in 15 normal dogs over a 5-week period. Following statistical analysis of the results a critical difference value of 0.38 per cent was obtained.

Introduction: In this study, we compared the level of glycosylated haemoglobin in patients with essential hypertension and healthy controls.Method: 70 non-diabetic patients with essential hypertension were recruited into the study along with 140 controls without any significant medical history. Persons with a history of metabolic disease, anaemia, renal disease, splenectomy, pregnancy, or on me...
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...

Retrospective analysis of glycosylated haemoglobin concentrations in a diabetic outpatient clinic over three and a half years showed a small seasonal variation in the mean value with a peak in mid February and a nadir in mid August.

We have explored systemic and regional tolerance to haemodilution during anaesthesia with two different synthetic colloids. Eighteen dogs undergoing mechanical ventilation during anaesthesia with ketamine were submitted to progressive normovolaemic haemodilution with either gelatin (GEL; n = 9) or hydroxyethylstarch (HES; n = 9) administered on a 1:1 ratio. Systemic oxygen delivery was calculat...
متن کاملSpuriously Elevated HbA1c Result
Glycosylated haemoglobin (HbA1c) is routinely used test to monitor long term glycaemic control in diabetic patients. It is well known that genetic variants and chemically modified derivatives of haemoglobin can profoundly affect the accuracy of HbA1c measurements. The degree of interference depends on the HbA1c assay method, type & quantum of haemoglobin variant present in a given sample. Here,...
