[QUOTE="Winnie53, post: 1532949, member: 160246"] [USER=374531]@Scott-C[/USER] thanks for the second graphic. The two together provide a more complete overview. In the first graphic, those of you in the UK and elsewhere use the first number (HbA1c - IFCC) and fourth number (blood glucose in mmol/L). Those of us in the USA use the second number (HbA1c - DCCT) and third number (blood glucose in mg/dL). Americans can easily convert the numbers in the second graphic using the first graphic (or use the converters in the two links below). For Americans, some of the conversion work is already done in the second graphic: an HbA1c (IFCC) of 31 mmol/mol (represented in blue for the UK and elsewhere) is already converted to an HbA1c (DCCT) of 5% (represented in white for the USA). In addition, there's a [B][SIZE=6]"HbA1c Units Converter - DCCT to IFCC" [/SIZE][/B]here... [URL]http://www.diabetes.co.uk/hba1c-units-converter.html[/URL] However, Americans will still have to convert the blood glucose level at the bottom of the second graphic of 5.4 (mmol/L) to 97 (mg/dL) using first graphic. Or use this [SIZE=6][B]"Blood Sugar Converter"[/B][/SIZE] here... [URL]http://www.diabetes.co.uk/blood-sugar-converter.html[/URL] Here's the blood glucose levels converted from UK and elsewhere (mmol/L) to USA (mg/dL) 5.4 mmol/L is 97.2 mg/dL 7.0 mmol/L is 126 mg/dL 8.6 mmol/L is 154.8 mg/dL 10.2 mmol/L is 183.6 mg/dL 11.8 mmol/L is 212.4 mg/dL 13.4 mmol/L is 241.2 mg/dL 14.9 mmol/L is 269 mg/dL 16.9 mmol/L is 297 mg/dL Hope this helps Americans trying to understand these two graphics.
