Serum total carbohydrates, conjugated carbohydrates and total protein glycation index in diabetes mellitus

Conclusions: The results confirm that sTPGI obtained by indirect assay has high significant efficiency comparable to HbA1c to diagnose diabetes. sTPGI relative to HbA1c indicates the mean level of glycaemia over a shorter period of about one month so it responds more quickly to changes in therapy.
