Purpose. High sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) has been used as a biomarker to assess the risk of cardiovascular accidents (CVA) and to measure general inflammation in the body. This study investigated the relationship and extent of correlation between serum glucose level markers and hs-CR...
Insulin is a hormone that allows the body to efficiently use glucose as fuel. After carbohydrates are broken down into sugars in the stomach, glucose enters the blood circulation and stimulates the pancreas to release insulin in the proper amount. Insulin allows body cells to uptake glucose as e...
It is recommended that treatment of diabetes be directed at keeping an individual's HbA1c level as close to normal as possible (<6%) without episodes of hypoglycemia (low blood glucose levels). Chart of Normal and Elevated HbA1c Levels Diagnosis*A1C Level *Any test for diagnosis of diabetes ...
This study aimed to correlate between fasting plasma glucose and hemoglobin A1c of type 2 diabetic patients to indicate average plasma glucose level, in order to evaluate and control the blood glucose level. The method used was a retrospective study and the data were collected from Laboratory of ...

Objectives The development of continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) systems has allowed for identification of blood sugar variations and trends in real-time that is not feasible with conventional self-monitoring of blood glucose. However, there is inconsistent data to show that the use of CGM leads ...

The A1c indicates your blood glucose control over the past three months. You can get an idea of what your A1c means by converting it to "estimated average glucose," or eAG. The ADA provides acalculator and chartto help you. Some common values are: ...
used a variety of methods to diagnose DM, including HbA1c, as well as two FBG measurements >125 mg/dL within a 12-month period or a 2 h plasma glucose level >200 mg/dL during a formal oral glucose tolerance test. It is possible that the approach to diagnosing DM may account for the...
The sugar in your blood is called glucose. When glucose builds up in your blood, it binds to the hemoglobin in your red blood cells. The A1c test measures how much glucose is bound. Red blood cells live for about 3 months, so the test shows the average level of glucose in your blood...
