Abstract

Objectives: Methods: To investigate the relationship between HbA1C and red cell indices in non-diabetics. This is a cross-sectional descriptive study conducted at Abu Arish General Hospital and College of Applied Medical Sciences, Jazan University, Jazan, Saudi Arabia. 5ml of anticoagulated venous blood samples from non-diabetic subjects were collected and analyzed to estimate the CBC, RBC indices, and HbA1c by Abbott and Sysmix Coulters. SPSS was used to perform statistical analysis on the data, and linear regression was used to determine the correlation. The t-test and P value were calculated to determine the signicance of the results. HbA1c and RBC indices were found to have a Results: signicant relationship There is a relationship between HbA1c levels a . Conclusion: nd RBC indices. The modulation of HbA1c levels in our bodies affects RBC indices. In diabetic cases, it is prudent to consider changes in RBC indices when interpreting HbA1c concentrations. So, when diagnosing diabetes, it is also advisable to consider HbA1c, anemia, hemoglobinopathy, and people who are at risk of having their red cells live less than normal
