HBAIC, LIPID, CRP AND URINE MICROALBUMINURIA SPOT TESTING

1)The HbA1c test, also known as the haemoglobin A1c or glycated haemoglobin test, is an important blood test that gives a good indication of how well your diabetes is being controlled.Together with the fasting plasma glucose test, the HbA1c test is one of the main ways in which type 2 diabetes is diagnosed.

2)LIPID PANEL-A complete cholesterol test is also called a lipid panel or lipid profile.It is performed by a doctor to measure “good” and “bad” cholesterol and triglycerides in your blood. Diabetic dyslipidemia is often characterized by high TC, high TG, low HDL cholesterol, and increased level of LDL. A lipid profile assessment in T2DM FDRs may be useful to reduce the risk of disease progression and also for early intervention.

3)Microalbuminuria is a term to describe a moderate increase in the level of urine albumin. It occurs when the kidney leaks small amounts of albumin into the urine, in other words, when there is an abnormally high permeability for albumin in the glomerulus of the kidney. Normally the kidneys do not filter albumin, so if albumin is found in the urine it’s then a marker of kidney disease.

4)A c-reactive protein test measures the level of c-reactive protein (CRP) in your blood. CRP is a protein made by your liver. It’s sent into your bloodstream in response to inflammation. Inflammation is your body’s way of protecting your tissues if you’ve been injured or have an infection.
