D
Glycosylated hemoglobin level is used to indicate overall blood glucose control throughout the previous 100 to 120 days. The effect of meals on blood glucose level is determined using self-monitoring of blood glucose levels. Glycosylated hemoglobin level does not show day-to-day variations in blood glucose level. Iron deficiency anemia is diagnosed by measuring total hemoglobin level in patients with and without diabetes.
