Abstract
Background: Previous studies have shown a single linear relationship between mean plasma glucose (MPG) and hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c). We examined the relationship in different treatment groups of patients with type 1 diabetes participating in the Diabetes Control and Complications Trial (DCCT).This publication has 24 references indexed in Scilit:
