To evaluate the clinical utility of Glycated Albumin (GA) as an intermediate-term marker of glycemic control (preceding 2-3 weeks), we compared the correlation and concordance of GA and fructosamine (FRA) with A1C and mean blood glucose (MBG) measurements. One hundred fifty subjects with type 1 (n=73) and type 2 diabetes (n=77) were assigned to Group 1 (n=98, A1C ≥7.5%, prescribed a change in diabetes therapy) and Group 2 (n=52, A1C In conclusion, GA may be a more useful diagnostic test than FRA in clinical situations requiring measurement of intermediate-term glycemic control.
