The American College of Physicians (ACP) issued new A1C guidelines for people managing type 2 diabetes, drawing both criticism and praise. Here’s what to know about the new target range and what ...

The proportions of patients achieving HbA1c target of <7.0% were 63.0% to 73.6% in the Q2W bofanglutide group, 75.0% in the QW bofanglutide group, and 70.0% in the semaglutide group.

The proportions of patients achieving HbA1c target of <7.0% were 63.0% to 73.6% in the Q2W bofanglutide group, 75.0% in the QW bofanglutide group, and 70.0% in the semaglutide group.

In this latest analysis, researchers set out to identify clinical and biochemical predictors of reaching and sustaining HbA1c and weight loss targets at 52 weeks and beyond.

Dr. Makhija adds that for people with type 2 diabetes, there are also hemoglobin A1c targets to aim for. “For a healthy adult, it would be less than 7%,” she says.

For older adults with diabetes, having a more stable hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) level over time may be associated with a lower risk of Alzheimer disease and dementia, a new study finds.

Older adults who spend less time in their designated HbA1c range have higher risks for Alzheimer’s disease and dementias. Time below HbA1c range of 60% or higher increased risk for dementia.

The A1C blood test checks blood glucose levels for 3 months prior. Lower A1C means reduced risk of diabetes complications. Learn how to lower A1C.

Whether you have diabetes or your doctor thinks you might be at risk, you've likely heard of an A1c test. The common blood test gives information about your blood sugar in order to test for and ...

NICE has recently unveiled their new HbA1c targets for type 1 diabetes –and they’re tighter. Previously, NICE had given a wider target of 59 mmol/mol (7.5%) with a target of 48 mmol/mol (6.5%) for ...

Adults with type 2 diabetes may be able to reduce their liver fat and improve their liver fibrosis stage with reductions in HbA1c, according to a study published in Nutrition, Metabolism &amp ...
