title: [Establishment of reference values for fructosamine and HbA1c in childhood].
abstract: Reference values for fructosamine and glycated haemoglobin in children are still lacking. Using samples from 522 children (age range 1 day to 9 years), plasma electrophoresis was performed, fructosamine and total protein were determined in EDTA-plasma, and glucose and the fraction of glycated haemoglobin (HbA1c) were determined in EDTA blood. The results were grouped according to age (1, 3 and 5 days, 6-28 days, 2-12 months, 2-3 years, 4-6 years, and 7-9 years). Differences between the age groups were determined using the Mann-Whitney-U-test, and the values in each group were summarized where possible. The 95%-interval was calculated for fructosamine, protein-corrected fructosamine, and HbA1c.
