Abstract:
To evaluate the efficacy of HbA1C in diagnosing diabetes in subjects with primary hypertension.The results demonstrated that the area under the reciever operating characteristic ( ROC ) curve was 0.895,with corresponding sensitivity of 85.4%,and specificity of 82.2%,when the optimal cutpoint of HbA1C in diagnosing diabetes was 6.0%.Our study suggested that HbA1C ≥6.0% can be used efficiently in diagnosing diabetes in patients with primary hypertension.
