Figure 3From: Three-graded stratification of carbohydrate restriction by level of baseline hemoglobin A1c for type 2 diabetes patients with a moderate low-carbohydrate dietCorrelations of changes in HbA1c levels with those in BMI and serum lipid profiles during 6 months in all patients. Green triangles indicate patients with HbA1c levels of ≤ 7.4%, blue squares those with HbA1c levels of 7.5% - 8.9% and red circles those with HbA1c levels of ≥ 9.0%. We found no correlation between ΔHbA1c and ΔBMI (A), Δserum LDL-cholesterol (B) or Δserum triglyceride (C), while there was a negative and weak correlation between ΔHbA1c and Δserum HDL-cholesterol (D).Back to article page
