  • Title: Comparison of two indices of glycemic control in diabetic subjects: glycosylated serum protein and hemoglobin.
    Author: Mehl TD, Wenzel SE, Russell B, Gardner D, Merimee TJ.
    Journal: Diabetes Care; 1983; 6(1):34-9. PubMed ID: 6839920.
    Abstract:
    Glycosylated serum protein (GSP) and glycosylated hemoglobin (GHb) were measured in 263 insulin-dependent and 41 non-insulin-dependent diabetic subjects. Both indices provided useful information in type II diabetes, but were extremely poor in judging control in type I diabetes. In both groups, there was poor correlation of the fasting serum glucose with either GSP or GHb. Only 4% of type I diabetic subjects had normal values for both GSP and GHb. Of subjects with elevated GSP, 98% had elevated GHb; 25% of subjects with elevated GHb values had normal values for GSP.
