Hemoglobin variants are reported to falsely lower or increase hemoglobin A1c test results. We present a case report of a patient with diabetes with discrepancy between fasting plasma glucose and hemoglobin A1c due to the presence of hemoglobin ...
متن کاملInfluence of variables on hemoglobin A1c values and nonheterogeneity of hemoglobin A1c reference ranges.

Although less well-known, demographic factors such as race, age, and sex also influence HbA1c values. The HbA1c reference range should be homogenous in the United States based on the use of National Glycohemoglobin St...

متن کاملHemoglobin A1c: Clinical applications and analytical considerations
Diabetes Mellitus (DM) is the most common disorder of carbohydrate metabolism. Hyperglycemia is the common feature of DM. Hyperglycemia causes cardiovascular, renal, ocular, and peripheral nerve disorders in patients with diabetes. Glycemic regulation plays an essential role in controlling these complications. Thus, evaluation of the glycemic control status is crucial in the management of DM. H...
