Patterns of trajectories of glycated hemoglobin, fasting plasma glucose, and body mass index until the first clinic visit: the real-world history of type 2 diabetes using repeated health checkup data of Japanese workers
To prevent the initial worsening of diabetes, early therapeutic intervention is necessary during the increasing trends before the steep rise in glycemia, regardless of the degree of obesity. HbA1c ≥6.5% (47.5 mmol/mol) and an HbA1c ≥0.2% (2.2 mmol/mol)/year increase may be an effective timing for therapeutic intervention.
