Description
HbA1c, also known as glycated haemoglobin, is a hemoglobin-glucose combinantion formed nonenzymatically within the cell. HbA1c is a marker that measures average blood sugar levels over the past three months. It can be used clinically to access diabetes diagnose, control and treatment. Thus, HbA1c levels are recommended as one of the biochemical markers for pre-diagnose and management of diabetes, especially type 2 diabetes.
HbA1c has clinical significance on diabetes diagnosis and prognosis. It also can be used as a simple and reliable marker of insulin resistance in adults with relatively high insulin sensitivity. Compared to other indices of insulin resistance HbA1c has minimal overlap in values between healthy adults with normal glucose tolerance and patients with type 2 diabetes. Therefore, HbA1c is a reliable biomarker and an excellent indicator of insulin resistance for testing individuals for diabetes and prediabetes.
