Concordance the hemoglobin glycation index with glycation gap using glycated albumin in patients with type 2 diabetes

The hemoglobin glycation index (HGI) is an index of differences in the glycation of hemoglobin according to blood glucose level. The glycation gap (G-gap) is an empiric measure of the extent of disagreement between hemoglobin A1C (HbA1C) and glycated albumin (GA). The aim of this study was to investigate the extent of agreement between the HGI and G-gap with respect to GA level, and to elucidate factors related to a high HGI.
