OBJECTIVE ; To compare A1C and fasting glucose for the diagnosis of diabetes among U.S. adults. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS : This study included 6,890 adults (=20 years of age) from the 1999–2006 National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey without a self-reported history of diabetes who had fasted =9 h. A1C =6.5% and fasting glucose =126 mg/dl were used, separately, to define diabetes. RESULTS : Overall, 1.8% of U.S. adults had A1C =6.5% and fasting glucose =126 mg/dl, 0.5% had A1C =6.5% and fasting glucose <126 mg/dl, and 1.8% had A1C <6.5% and fasting glucose =126 mg/dl. Compared with individuals with A1C <6.5% and fasting glucose =126 mg/dl, individuals with A1C =6.5% and fasting glucose <126 mg/dl were younger, more likely to be non-Hispanic black, had lower Hb levels, and had higher C-reactive protein. CONCLUSIONS : A1C =6.5% demonstrates reasonable agreement with fasting glucose for diagnosing diabetes among U.S. adults.
