I undersøgelserne målte man blodsukkeret i fastende tilstand eller mængden af et stof (glykosyleret hæmoglobin, HbA1c), der viser, hvor godt blodsukkeret reguleres.
The studies measured the level of fasting blood sugar or a substance in the blood called glycosylated haemoglobin (HbA1c), which gives an indication of how well the blood glucose is controlled.
