The DCCT showed, at least in patients with insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus, that the risk for development and progression of the chronic complications of diabetes is closely related to the degree of m...

Approximately 5.1% of the US population has diabetes mellitus, and hemoglobin (Hb) A1c levels are routinely measured to monitor long-term glycemic control in these patients.

The goal of this study was to eval...
