Glucose and hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) provide complementary information and both are used to assess an individual’s glycemic status. The concentration of glucose in the blood indicates the subject’s glycemia at the time of blood sampling. However, blood glucose concentrations are modified by numerous factors...

Therefore, a hemoglobin (Hb) A1c analysis was per...
متن کاملHemoglobin A1c as a Predictor of Incident Diabetes
OBJECTIVE Several studies have suggested that HbA(1c) levels may predict incident diabetes. With new recommendations for use of HbA(1c) in diagnosing diabetes, many patients with HbA(1c) results below the diagnostic threshold will be identified. Clinicians will need to categorize risk for a subsequent diabetic diagnosis in such patients. The objective of this study was to determine the ability ...
