Abstract

The serum fructosamine concentration was examined as a new means to monitor metabolic control in non-insulin-dependent diabetes during changes in management. Weekly fructosamine estimations were compared with glycosylated haemoglobin (HbA1c), 24 hour urinary glucose, and fasting plasma glucose concentrations in a 17 week study entailing withdrawal and reinstitution of oral treatment. The serum fructosamine concentration was more sensitive than the other measurements in detecting a deterioration in diabetic control after stopping oral hypoglycaemic drugs. The response to reinstitution of treatment was not significant in the first three weeks (p = 0.266), despite a highly significant reduction in fasting plasma glucose (p = 0.001) and 24 hour urinary glucose concentrations (p = 0.012). Compared with HbA1c, concentrations of fructosamine appeared more useful in monitoring short term (three to six weeks) changes after alterations in management of diabetes. Additional advantages were lower cost and technical simplicity of measurement.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
