I think that HBA1C is the average of the last three or four months, but the important thing is the last month.Someone knows the weighting of each week in the calculation ...
There must be some study of this, but I can't find it.I think that if the last week you are fatal, even if you had two fantastic months hemo will be high in promotion ...

It has always been said that the last month represents 50% of the result of glycosilada.
This is because the renewal of red blood cells is constant and their half -life is approximately 120 days, so the young red blood cells will always predominate over the oldest.

A simple explanation of what glycosilated hemoglobin is: Link ... zdh9xa3lhu </a

Tica, in this link: Link ... pdf001.pdf <!refine a percentage of contribution to the most accurate glycosilad.

For the most vague ones that do not want to read the article;), I post a graph:

I think it's quite clear: D

Perfect, it was what I was looking for (and what it meant)
