Estimates are mean (standard deviation) or %. * Fructosamine and glycated albumin were divided into categories defined by the ≤70th, 71–96th, >96th percentiles in persons without diagnosed diabetes and by the ≤38th, >38th percentiles with diagnosed diabetes. These percentiles correspond to HbA1c categories of <5.7%, 5.7–6.4%, and >6.4% in persons without diagnosed diabetes, and HbA1c categories of <7%, ≥7% in persons with diagnosed diabetes
