Abstract:
In the present study,healthy adults who had been residing at the average altitudes of 6,2260,and 2800 m for 10 years were recruited,and the number of red blood cells,the levels of hemoglobin,and HbA1C were tested.The results showed that the level of HbA1C in altitude 2800 m group was higher compared with the other 2 groups(5.80% ± 0.50% vs 5.39% ± 0.47%,P<0.05 ).Therefore,this difference should be considered when diagnosis and treatment for diabetes mellitus were made in the region.
