A: The time courses of HbA1c (closed squares), GA (closed circles), and serum ferritin (closed triangles) in a pregnant woman with diabetes mellitus (a 36-year-old woman with type 2 diabetes mellitus receiving insulin therapy), are shown; B: Correlations between serum ferritin and HbA1c (R = -0.975, P < 0.001) or GA (R = 0.322, P = 0.534) in a pregnant woman with diabetes mellitus are shown. HbA1c: Hemoglobin A1c; GA: Glycated albumin.
