Plasma fructosamine and glycosylated haemoglobin were measured in insulin-dependent (n = 30) and in non-insulin-dependent diabetics (n = 90) and in healthy controls (n = 45). Fructosamine correlated significantly with glycosylated haemoglobin in the non-insulin dependent (r = 0.5, P less than 0.001) better than in the insulin-dependent group (r = 0.39, P less than 0.05). No correlation was found between plasma fructosamine and albumin or total protein concentrations when the concentrations of albumin and protein are within normal reference range. The fructosamine test has got many desirable characteristics, which will give it a role in the assessment of diabetic control.

D003922 Diabetes Mellitus, Type 1 A subtype of DIABETES MELLITUS that is characterized by INSULIN deficiency. It is manifested by the sudden onset of severe HYPERGLYCEMIA, rapid progression to DIABETIC KETOACIDOSIS, and DEATH unless treated with insulin. The disease may occur at any age, but is most common in childhood or adolescence.

D003924 Diabetes Mellitus, Type 2 A subclass of DIABETES MELLITUS that is not INSULIN-responsive or dependent (NIDDM). It is characterized initially by INSULIN RESISTANCE and HYPERINSULINEMIA; and eventually by GLUCOSE INTOLERANCE; HYPERGLYCEMIA; and overt diabetes. Type II diabetes mellitus is no longer considered a disease exclusively found in adults. Patients seldom develop KETOSIS but often exhibit OBESITY.

D006442 Glycated Hemoglobin Products of non-enzymatic reactions between GLUCOSE and HEMOGLOBIN (occurring as a minor fraction of the hemoglobin of ERYTHROCYTES.) It generally refers to glycated HEMOGLOBIN A. Hemoglobin A1c (Hb A1c) is hemoglobin A with GLYCATION on a terminal VALINE of the beta chain. Glycated hemoglobin A is used as an index of the average blood sugar level over a lifetime of erythrocytes.
