The correlations of glycosylated serum protein and glycosylated hemoglobin concentrations with blood glucose in diabetic pregnancy.
The usefulness of concentrations of glycosylated serum protein and glycosylated hemoglobin in monitoring glycemic control during pregnancy complicated by diabetes was evaluated by correlation of these parameters with fasting and 2-hour postprandial glucose concentrations of the previous 7 days. Glycosylated serum protein correlated with both fasting (r = 0.798, p less than 0.01, n = 71) and postprandial (r = 0.846, p less than 0.01, n = 69) blood glucose concentrations. Glycosylated hemoglobin also correlated with fasting (r = 0.571, p less than 0.01, n = 71) and postprandial (r = 0.510, p less than 0.01, n = 74) blood glucose concentrations. Monitoring glycosylated serum protein during pregnancy complicated by diabetes is clinically feasible and allows frequent reappraisal of diabetic control.
