Abstract

Background Relative to hemoglobin A(1c) (HbA(1c)), percentage of glycated albumin (GA%) more accurately reflects recent glycemic control in diabetic hemodialysis (HD) patients. Methods To determine the accuracy of glycemic assays in a larger sample including patients on peritoneal dialysis (PD), HbA(1c) and GA% were measured in 519 diabetic subjects: 55 on PD, 415 on HD, and 49 non-nephropathy controls. Results Mean +/- SD serum glucose levels were higher in HD and PD patients relative to non-nephropathy controls (HD 169.7 +/- 62 mg/dL, PD 168.6 +/- 66 mg/dL, controls 146.1 +/- 66 mg/dL; p = 0.03 HD vs controls, p = 0.13 PD vs controls). GA% was also higher in HD and PD patients (HD 20.6% +/- 8.0%, PD 19.0% +/- 5.7%, controls 15.7% +/- 7.7%; p Conclusions The relationship between HbA(1c) and GA% differs in diabetic patients with end-stage renal disease who perform either PD or HD compared to those without nephropathy. HbA(1c) significantly underestimates glycemic control in peritoneal and hemodialysis patients relative to GA%.

Claims the paper makes

This paper’s full text isn’t openly available, so its claims and self-check weren’t run. The registry and citation checks still apply.

Claims other papers make about this one

Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?

  • Correlations of directly measured blood glucose levels with HbA1c, glycated albumin, and fructosamine were progressively weaker with advanced CKD stages (G4-G5), especially kidney failure treated by dialysis.

    “Correlations of directly measured blood glucose levels with 3 glycemic biomarkers -HbA1c, glycated albumin, and fructosamine -were progressively weaker with advanced CKD stages (G4 -G5), especially kidney failure treated by dialysis. 196,197,205,210,227”
  • Accuracy and precision of HbA1c measurement declines with advanced CKD (G4-G5), particularly among patients treated by dialysis, in whom HbA1c measurements have low reliability.

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.
