Seasonal variation of HbA1c levels in diabetic and non-diabetic patients
Background
Hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) serves as a pivotal marker for long-term glycemic control. The Diabetes Control and Complications Trial (DCCT) established its relevance, yet gaps exist in understanding potential seasonal variations in HbA1c levels among diabetic patients. The study highlights the need to explore potential seasonal variations in HbA1c levels and their impact on diabetic patients.
Materials and methods
This is an observational study conducted in a tertiary care hospital from January to December 2019, the study analyzed HbA1c levels in 8138 patients. Blood samples were collected using Potassium EDTA-containing vials and processed with an automated analyzer. Seasonal variations were explored using time series analysis.
Results
Mean HbA1c levels peaked during the monsoon (June to September) and were lowest in autumn (October to November). Subgroup analysis revealed differences in patients with HbA1c values below and above 6.5 %. Those with controlled blood sugar showed higher levels in winter (December to February) and monsoon (June to September), while patients with HbA1c values ≥ 6.5 % exhibited significantly lower levels in monsoon (June to September) and autumn (October to November) compared to summer (March to May).
Conclusion
In contrast to global trends, Indian patients demonstrated distinct seasonal variations in HbA1c levels. The highest levels during the monsoon (June to September) may be linked to reduced outdoor activity and dietary changes. The study emphasizes the need for tailored diabetes management considering seasonal influences. Further extensive, longitudinal studies across diverse Indian regions are recommended to comprehensively grasp the impact of seasonal changes on diabetes outcomes.
期刊介绍：
Practical Laboratory Medicine is a high-quality, peer-reviewed, international open-access journal publishing original research, new methods and critical evaluations, case reports and short papers in the fields of clinical chemistry and laboratory medicine. The objective of the journal is to provide practical information of immediate relevance to workers in clinical laboratories. The primary scope of the journal covers clinical chemistry, hematology, molecular biology and genetics relevant to laboratory medicine, microbiology, immunology, therapeutic drug monitoring and toxicology, laboratory management and informatics. We welcome papers which describe critical evaluations of biomarkers and their role in the diagnosis and treatment of clinically significant disease, validation of commercial and in-house IVD methods, method comparisons, interference reports, the development of new reagents and reference materials, reference range studies and regulatory compliance reports. Manuscripts describing the development of new methods applicable to laboratory medicine (including point-of-care testing) are particularly encouraged, even if preliminary or small scale.
