Abstract
The aim of this study was to test whether an increased red cell count (RCC) is present in pre-diabetes, obesity and the metabolic syndrome. The results demonstrate that these diabetes precursor states are associated with an increased RCC. This relationship can be explained, in part, by an increased HbA1c.
