Abstract:
Background: HbA1c quantification is the first important work in long- term controlling of diabetes, which helps to assess the status of diabetes from 2 to 3 months before testing. HbA1c is essential testing to follow up compliance with treatment or not of patients.\r\n', u'Objectives: To study the role of blood HbA1c and micoalbuminuria in the treatment of diabetes.\r\n', u'Subjects and methods: The study was conducted on 124 patients (71 male and 53 female) suffering from diabetes mellitus. Among them, 124 patients were tested for blood HbA1c, 52 patients were tested for both blood HbA1c and micoalbuminuria. The study used the automatic immunological and biochemical techniques. \r\n', u'Results: Concentration of HbA1c was 8.10\xb12.65%, glycemia 9.83\xb14.82mmol/l, urinary micro albumin 76.5\xb196.90mg/l.\r\n', u'There was close relationship between glycaemia and HbA1c; but the relation between micoalbuminuria with HbA1c and glycaemia was not found. The control of diabetes mellitus was poor if glycaemia over 10.0mmol/l and/or HbA1c over 10%. \r\n', u'Conclusion: The techniques applied in the study were precise, rapid and convenient for the patients.\r\n', u'
