The patients’ general clinical data, including HbA1c, GA, fasting blood glucose, and fasting and peak C-peptide values upon diagnosis and after one year of follow-up, were collected, and their MAGE was calculated.Results: With the increase of the GA/HbA1c ratio at baseline, the patients’ fasting and peak C-peptide values decreased gradually from baseline to follow-up, while their MAGE, HbA1c, and fasting blood glucose increased gradually. A regression analysis demonstrated that the baseline MAGE was independently positively correlated with the GA/HbA1c ratio. A Cox regression analysis demonstrated that a baseline GA/HbA1c ratio of > 2.78 was an independent risk factor for poor fasting blood glucose and HbA1c.Conclusion: The GA/HbA1c ratio is closely related to the MAGE and islet function in patients with T2DM.Keywords: type 2 diabetes mellitus, glycated albumin, glycosylated hemoglobin, blood glucose control, blood glucose fluctuation
