| Abstract | In an attempt to determine the clinical value of frnctosamine assay for monitoring type II diabetic patients, correlation of frnctosamine with glycosylated hemoglobin was studied. 100 patients with type II diabetes mcllitus were compared with 100 normal subjects. Fasting blood glucose, glycosylated hemoglobin, albumin and frnctosamine were measured in alt subjects. In the diabetic patients, a significant correlation was observed between fasting blood glucose and glycosylated hemoglobin (r = 0.64, p < 0.01) and scrum frnctosamine (r = 0.7, P < 0.01). Tlicrc was also a significant correlation between glycosylated hemoglobin and scrum frtictosmine (r = .94, I´<0.01). Frnctosamine, assay can be used as an index of diabetes control. |
