The NGSP: Over 20 Years of Improving HbA1c Measurement

open access: yesClinical Chemistry, 2018
BACKGROUND: Measurement of hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) in the blood is integral to and essential for the management of patients with diabetes mellitus. HbA1c reflects the average blood glucose concentration over the preceding 8–12 weeks.

Sleep and HbA1c in Patients With Type 2 Diabetes: Which Sleep Characteristics Matter Most?

open access: yesDiabetes Care, 2019
OBJECTIVE Poor sleep has been identified as a risk factor for poor glycemic control in individuals with type 2 diabetes (T2D). As optimal sleep can be characterized in several ways, we evaluated which sleep characteristics are most strongly associated ...

Prevalence of Cardiovascular Autonomic Neuropathy among Type 2 Diabetic Patients in Erbil City

open access: yesAdvanced Medical Journal
Background and objectives: Type 2 diabetes affects over 500 million people worldwide. Damage to the autonomic nerve fibers that innervate the heart and blood vessels is known as cardiac-autonomic-neuropathy.

Preventing misdiagnosis of diabetes in the elderly: age-dependent HbA1c reference intervals derived from two population-based study cohorts

open access: yesBMC Endocrine Disorders, 2019
BackgroundMeasurement of gylcated hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) plays a central role in monitoring quality of antidiabetic therapy and in the diagnosis of diabetes. Several studies report increased levels of HbA1c in nondiabetic elderly.

Correlation between glycated hemoglobin and HOMA indices in type 2 diabetes mellitus: Prediction of Beta-cell function from glycated hemoglobin [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Medical Biochemistry, 2015
Background: The present study aimed to determine the most efficient insulin resistance function related to glycemic control expressed as glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) in type 2 diabetes mellitus patients (T2DM). The other aim is to derive equations for the

Drugs affecting HbA1c levels

open access: yesIndian Journal of Endocrinology and Metabolism, 2012
Glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) is an important indicator of glycemic control in diabetes mellitus, based on which important diagnostic and therapeutic decisions are routinely made. However, there are several situations in which the level of HbA1c may not faithfully reflect the glycemic control in a given patient.

Prospective Association Among Diabetes Diagnosis, HbA1c, Glycemia, and Frailty Trajectories in an Elderly Population

open access: yesDiabetes Care, 2019
OBJECTIVE Frailty is a dynamic state of vulnerability in the elderly. We examined whether individuals with overt diabetes or higher levels of HbA1c or fasting plasma glucose (FG) experience different frailty trajectories with aging.

The effect of diabetes self-management education on HbA1c and quality of life in African-Americans: a systematic review and meta-analysis

open access: yesBMC Health Services Research, 2018
BackgroundType 2 diabetes presents a major morbidity and mortality burden in the United States. Diabetes self-management education (DSME) is an intervention associated with improved hemoglobin A1c(HbA1c) and quality of life(QOL), and is recommended for ...

Use of HbA1c in the diagnosis of diabetes [PDF]

open access: yesBMJ, 2012
Be aware of clinical circumstances in which results may mislead Before 2010, guidelines recommended the measurement of blood glucose for diagnosing diabetes. Improved standardisation in the measurement of glycated haemoglobin (HbA1c) and wider availability of the assay led to a recommendation in 2011 by the World Health Organization that HbA1c should ...

HbA1c variability and diabetic peripheral neuropathy in type 2 diabetic patients

open access: yesCardiovascular Diabetology, 2018
BackgroundDiabetic complications may be associated with impaired time-dependent glycemic control. Therefore, long-term glycemic variability, assessed by variations in haemoglobin A1c (HbA1c), may be a potential risk factor for microvascular complications,
