Abstract
This study is an effort to evaluate the association between glycated-albumin and various biochemical parameters in Saudi type-2 diabetic patients. Ninety long-standing (>10 years) type-2 diabetic subjects (51 males, 39 females) and serum was analyzed for glycated-albumin, fasting blood glucose, hemoglobin1c, cholesterol, triglyceride, albumin, high-density lipoprotein-cholesterol, low-density lipoprotein-cholesterol, aspartate transaminase, alkaline phosphatase, alanine transaminase and total bilirubin. Correlation, principal components analysis, covariance and statistical differences were conducted using SPSS for both male and female participants. The average age (years) of female and male participants was 51.0±10.2 and 51.6±14.1, respectively. Hemoglobin1C was significantly associated with fasting blood glucose (r=0.637,P
