Assessment of equations estimating average glucose among patients with diabetic kidney disease before dialysis

ConclusionsHbA1c-derived estimated AG from existing equations may not accurately reflect measured AG in patients with DKD before dialysis. Diabetes type, BMI, and CKD stage should be considered when translating HbA1c into AG value in DKD before dialysis. It is advisable to adjust the AG-HbA1c equations for target population.
