Most patients (77 %) had hemoglobin concentrations of ≥ 10g/dL on admission, while less than 1 % had severely reduced levels. The average values of mean corpuscular volume (MCV) and mean corpuscular hemoglobin (MCH) on admission for the entire cohort were 85.7 ± 6.6 (normal range 80–96...

The central objective was to evaluate HbA1c levels as a primary outcome of interest. The variables of age (in years), sex, body mass index (BMI in kg/m2), disease duration (in years), cholesterol (categorized as less than 200 mg/dl as normal values and equal to or greater than 200 ...
37% had isolated elevated HbA1c and 34% had elevated levels of both. These global proportions were the same before and after age-standardization. There was substantial variation across regions in the composition of screen-detected diabetes across these three groups, both in terms ...
the control can be a single value or a range of values. For example, a control can be a standardized curve or an area on a graph. In one embodiment the control comprises the increase in HbA produced using a construct described in Breda, L., et al.,Therapeutic hemoglobin levels after ge...
Low or high hemoglobin concentrations were associated with elevated cardiovascular and all-cause mortality [22], emphasizing the importance of maintaining hemoglobin levels within the normal range. However, a large cohort study of 39,922 patients with acute coronary syndrome found a highly statistically...
For 15 months in 1996–1997, specimens were sent daily from Manila, Philippines to Sydney, Australia while the first Philippine NBS laboratory was being developed [1]. Technical guidance from the University of the Philippines Manila, various supporting administrative orders from the Department of ...
