ABSTRACT
To assess the influence of smoking on glycated albumin [GA] to hemoglobin A1c [HbA1c] ratio among type 1 diabetes mellitus [T1DM] patients. Eighty-one T1DM patients [49 females, 32 males, mean age 48 +/- 18 years] were recruited, and data concerning GA/HbA1c ratio and smoking were collected. The median levels of GA and HbA1c were 23.3 and 7.4%, respectively. Independent of age, sex and/or body mass index, the GA/HbA1c ratio in smokers was significantly lower than that in nonsmokers [3.0 vs. 3.3, p < 0.05]. The data suggest that smoking might affect the GA/HbA1c ratio among T1DM patients
