Hemoglobin A1c Predicts Diabetes but Not Cardiovascular Disease in Nondiabetic Women  Aruna D. Pradhan, MD, Nader Rifai, PhD, Julie E. Buring, ScD, Paul M. Ridker, MD  The American Journal of Medicine  Volume 120, Issue 8, Pages 720-727 (August 2007) DOI: 10.1016/j.amjmed.2007.03.022 Copyright © 2007 Elsevier Inc. Terms and Conditions

Figure 1 Histograms of HbA1c distribution according to 4 main groups: individuals remaining disease-free (N = 24,725), developing incident cardiovascular disease only (N = 600), developing incident diabetes mellitus only (N = 1154), or developing both cardiovascular disease and diabetes mellitus (N = 84). SD = standard deviation; IQR = interquartile range; CVD = cardiovascular disease; DM = diabetes mellitus; HbA1c = hemoglobin A1c.
