Abstract

Objective: This research aims to study effect of hemoglobin E disorder on hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) level of diabetic patients in Surin hospital.
Methods: A retrospective study was conducted from 2006 to 2007. Patient's profile, blood glucose and HbA1c level were collected and divided in hemoglobin E disorder group and control group. Each sample arm was classified into seven subgroups according to blood glucose level to compare HbA1c level in each subgroup.
Results: During 2006-2007, 28 diabetic patients with hemoglobin E disorder were found from overall 910 diabetic patients. There is no difference of sex  average age and blood glucose between hemoglobin E disorder and control group. Patients with hemoglobin E disorder had lower HbA1c level than those of control group (P<0.001).
Conclusion: Since HbA1c levels is presently the best indicator of long term glycemic control. With similar fasting glucose, hemoglobin E disorder is associated with lower HbAlc level.
Key words: Diabetes mellitus, Hemoglobinopathy, Hemoglobin A1 (HbA)
