Hemoglobin A 1c (HbA 1c ) can be used to assess type 2 diabetes (T2D) risk. We asked whether HbA 1c was associated with T2D risk in four scenarios of clinical information availability: 1 ) HbA 1c alone, 2 ) fasting laboratory tests, 3 ) clinic data, and 4 ) fasting laboratory tests and clinic data.
