Hba1c as a Tool for the Diagnosis of Type 2 Diabetes: Comparison with Fasting Glucose |
Background: Glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) has been proposed for the diagnosis of diabetes. However, several countries have not incorporated its use for this purpose yet and there is no consensus on a suitable cut-off point of HbA1c for the diagnosis of diabetes. Thus, the aim of this study was to evaluate the diagnostic characteristics of HbA1c and fasting plasma glucose (FPG) for the assessment of type 2 diabetes.
