Glycated Albumin Percentage is Correlated With HbA1c: Theoretic Marker in Patients With Altered Erythrocyte Turnover

J Diabetes Sci TechnolPublished Cross-sectional study

Authors' conclusion

In conclusion, the findings of this study strengthen the possibility of using GSP and %GA as possible alternatives or at least a supplement to HbA1c for monitoring long-term glucose exposure.

Study context

Participants
