These benefits persisted beyond the end of the trial despite equivalent glucose levels in the two groups (hba 1c ∼8% [64 mmol/mol]) in the posttrial period; furthermore, reductions in incident cardiovascular disease and mortality in the intensively treated group emerged with time . this seminal study has been the basis for glycemic target.
The classification of diabetes was originally limited to only two categories called juvenile-onset diabetes mellitus, now known as type 1 diabetes mellitus, and adult-onset diabetes mellitus, now known as type 2 diabetes mellitus. this has grown to a recognition of more than 50 subcategories caused by various pathogenic mechanisms or accompanying other diseases and syndromes. the diagnosis of. Although hemoglobin a1c has long been used as a marker for glycemic control over a 3-month period, recent studies have examined serum fructosamine, which measures glycemic control over a 2 to 3-week period. utility for pji and supported the 2018 international consensus meeting pji algorithm’s classification of them as equivalent tests 26,. Water hardness is measured in grains; 0.064 g calcium carbonate is equivalent to one grain of hardness.[59] water is classified as soft if it contains 1 to 4 grains, medium if it contains 5 to 10 grains and hard if it contains 11 to 20 grains. [59].
For example, if the a1c is 7.0% (53 mmol/mol) and a repeat result is 6.8% (51 mmol/mol), the diagnosis of diabetes is confirmed. if two different tests (such as a1c and fpg) are both above the diagnostic threshold when analyzed from the same sample or in two different test samples, this also confirms the diagnosis.. Epidemiological studies forming the framework for recommending use of the a1c to diagnose diabetes have all been in adult populations. whether the cut point would be the same to diagnose children or adolescents with type 2 diabetes is an area of uncertainty (3,10). a1c inaccurately reflects glycemia with certain anemias and hemoglobinopathies..
