Glycated hemoglobin (HbA?(c)), used to monitor and diagnose diabetes, is influenced by average glycemia over a 2- to 3-month period. Genetic factors affecting expression, turnover, and abnormal glycation of hemoglobin could also be associated with increased levels of HbA?(c). We aimed to identify such genetic factors and investigate the extent to which they influence diabetes classification based on HbA?(c) levels.
