Khan, Sobki, and Alhomida (2015) examined 75 patients to assess the association between fasting blood sugar (FBS) measured iln mmol/l and glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c) levels measured as a percentage and reported the following regression equation, which can be used to estimate an HbA1C level from a FBS level. HbA1c = 0.387 (FBS) + 4.855 From this equation you know that in increase of 1 unit in FBS is associated with what change in HbA1c?
Blood glucose will be highly variable by increased rapidly after
a carbohydrate meal and falls down to the steady fasting
state..Fasting state is a dynamic state,body removes glucose from
the blood balance by the glycogen breakdown and glyconeogenesis..As
glucose levels are lower when fasting,the average glucose was lower
compared to the non fasting samples..As a general rule,every 1%
change in A1C associated with 30mg/dl change in estimated average
glucose..The glucose bound hemoglobin or HbA1C provide average
blood glucose level as it mix with glucose and hemoglobin HbA1C
level directly proportional to the blood glucose level..Fasting
glucose test measure glucose concentration..80% minimum sensitivity
and specificity of HbA1C in the prediction of FBS >126mg/dl
precision of 3% and 95% of significant level..
Based on this data conventional cutoff point of 6%,each 1unit FBS
in the prediction of high HbA1C based on the cutoff points..There
is positive result associated with HbA1C and FBS..If HbA1C had
greater sensitivity and negative predictor value in detection of
FBS..This study highlighted a straight positive result associated
between HbA1C and FBS..

A patient admitted with type 2 diabetes asks the nurse what “type 2” means. What is the most appropriate response by the nurse? “With type 2 diabetes, the body of the pancreas becomes inflamed.” “With type 2 diabetes, the patient is totally dependent on an outside source of insulin.” “With type 2 diabetes, insulin secretion is decreased, and insulin resistance is increased.” “With type 2 diabetes, the body produces autoantibodies that destroy β-cells in the pancreas.” 2. The nurse caring...

Exposure to arsenic in drinking water is associated with increased prevalence of diabetes. We previously reported an association of diabetes and urinary concentration of dimethylarsinite (DMAS"), a toxic product of arsenic methylation by arsenic (+ 3 oxidation state) methyltransferase (AS3MT). Here we examine associations between AS3MT polymorphism, arsenic metabolism and diabetes. Fasting blood glucose, oral glucose tolerance and self-reported diagnoses were used to identify diabetic individuals. Inorganic...
