Abstract

The relationship between glycated hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) and average glucose has been described by the empirically derived estimated average glucose (eAG) equation in the A1c-Derived Average Glucose (ADAG) study, with extensive calibration efforts in four secondary reference HbA1c methods. It is not known if this relationship is preserved when HbA1c is measured by routine laboratory methods under routine conditions. We measured average glucose (mAG) by six days of continuous glucose monitoring in 45 adults with stable HbA1c (<1% HbA1c change in the preceding two months). Subjects with medical conditions that may confound HbA1c measurement, including anemia and hemoglobinopathy, were excluded. HbA1c was measured using Bio-Rad Variant II (cation-exchange HPLC), Bio-Rad in2it (boronate affinity HPLC) and Roche Tina-quant (immunoassay) methods. The average differences between eAG derived from the routine HbA1c methods and mAG were 10.4% (Variant II), 6.0% (Tina-quant) and 1.0% (in2it). The regression coefficients between the mAG and HbA1c are different between in2it (mAG, mmol/L=0.58 × %HbA1c + 2.3), Tina-quant and Variant II (both mAG, mmol/L=0.66 × %HbA1c + 1.9). However, the 95% confidence intervals of the slope and bias of thes...Continue Reading

Anemia

Anemia develops when your blood lacks enough healthy red blood cells. Anemia of inflammation (AI, also called anemia of chronic disease) is a common, typically normocytic, normochromic anemia that is caused by an underlying inflammatory disease. Here is the latest research on anemia.

Biomarkers for Type 2 Diabetes

Biomarkers can help understand chronic diseases and assist in risk prediction for prevention and early detection of diseases. Here is the latest research on biomarkers in type 2 diabetes, a disease in which the body is unable to produce or properly use insulin.
