Abstract

Evening-type T2DM patients showed high levels of HbA1c and poor metabolic control.

  • 725 Japanese T2DM outpatients were classified as morning type, neither type, and evening type.
  • Evening-type individuals had elevated alanine aminotransferase, triglycerides, fasting blood glucose, and HbA1c, along with lower high-density lipoprotein-cholesterol.
  • The evening type was associated with high HbA1c and estimated glomerular filtration rate after adjusting for age, gender, and other lifestyle factors.
  • These findings suggest that the evening trait may indicate inadequate metabolic control in T2DM patients.
