GMI vs HbA1c #3

Open sgmoore opened 2 years ago

sgmoore commented 2 years ago

The graph at the top left is titled 'Glucose Management Indicator' but does not appear to be displaying the GMI Percentage, but rather it appears to be using the HbA1c formula i.e. (average glucose in mgl/dl + 46.7)/28.7

But GMI perc does not use the same calculation.

That formula should be *3.31m + (0.02392m (average glucose in mg/dl)**

see, for example, https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC6196826/

For example, from my calculations my 'daily estimated HbA1c' for yesterday was 5.92 (CheckMate displays 5.9) but my GMI is 6.28

Thanks for the feedback, didn't know that there is a different calculation method. I will get into this as soon as i am back from vacation. :)
