Study of Glycosylated Hemoglobin in Iron Deficiency Anemia
Journal Title: Scholars Journal of Applied Medical Sciences - Year 2016, Vol 4, Issue 2
Abstract
The objective of the present study was to determine whether the Glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c) levels were increased in some non-diabetic pathological states, like Iron Deficiency Anemia (IDA). 70 non-diabetic, IDA patients and 50 age matched healthy subjects were enrolled in the study. The HbA1c levels were significantly increased among the IDA patients as compared to those in the controls. The mean HbA1c % (6.5 ± 0.42) level in the patients with IDA was higher than that in the control group (5.1 ± 0.13) (p < 0.001). There were no differences in the levels of fasting and postprandial glucose between the IDA and the control groups (p > 0.05). Therefore the iron de¬ficiency had to be corrected before any diagnostic or therapeutic decision was made based on the HbA1c level. Keywords: Glycosylated Hemoglobin, HbA1c, Iron Deficiency Anemia, Diabetes Mellitus.
