Fructosamine concentrations in diabetics were significantly higher than in healthy controls (p less than 0.0005). Fructosamine concentrations correlated significantly with fasting blood glucose and HbA1 in diabetics (r = 0.677, p less than 0.0005, and r = 0.598, p less than 0.0005, respectively). The correlation between fructosamine and HbA1 was significant in the oral hypoglycemic-treated diabetics and poor in the insulin-treated diabetic group (r = 0.568, p less than 0.0005, and r = 0.526, p = 0.01). Fructosamine concentrations correlated poorly with the duration of diabetes (r = 0.221, p less than 0.05)  ISSN : 0001-5563  Journal Name : Acta Diabetologica Latina  Volume : 27  Issue Number : 2  Publishing Year : 1411 AH 1990 AD  Article Type : Article  Added Date : Saturday, December 3, 2011  Researchers Researcher Name (Arabic) Researcher Name (English) Researcher Type Dr Grade Email محمد عجب نور Ajabnoor, Mohammed Investigator Doctorate   طريف زواوي Zawawi, Tarif Researcher Doctorate   خالد المرزوقي Al-Marzouki, Khalid Researcher Doctorate   زهير المرزوقي Marzouki, Zohair Researcher Doctorate   Files File Name Type Description  31484.pdf pdf   Back To Researches Page
