Abstract

Aim

We investigated the association of visceral adiposity with glycated albumin (GA) as well as GA/hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) in type 2 diabetes.

Methods

One hundred twenty-three patients (68 males, 55 females) with type 2 diabetes were enrolled in this cross-sectional study. Visceral fat area (VFA) was determined using an abdominal dual bioelectrical impedance analysis (dual BIA) instrument. The relationship of VFA with GA and GA/HbA1c was analyzed.

Results

Simple regression analysis showed that BMI was inversely correlated with GA as well as GA/HbA1c, but not with HbA1c, while VFA had a significant correlation with GA and GA/HbA1c. Furthermore, multiple regression analysis revealed VFA as an independent contributor to GA/HbA1c. These results suggest that visceral adiposity is a primary factor associated with GA and HbA1c level discrepancy in patients with type 2 diabetes.

Conclusions

GA is a useful indicator for glycemic control, while visceral obesity should also be taken into consideration in type 2 diabetes cases.
