Fig. 2. Relationship between average BG and estimated BG according to different estimation models. a Model 3 (simple): estimated BG (mg/dl) = × HbA1c × Alb (R2adj = 0.454). b Model 4 (simple): estimated BG (mg/dl) = × HbA1c × Alb × Hb (R2adj = 0.457). c Model 8 (complex): BG (mg/dl) = × HbA1c × Alb × Hb × age + race/ethnicity (-10.1 if African American, -5.4 if not Caucasian, Hispanic, or African American; R2adj = 0.457). d ADAG formula: BG (mg/dl) = 28.7 × HbA1c (R2adj = 0.446). Alb = Serum albumin.
