Weighting towards recent weeksResolved

The non-uniform weighting is why people are surprised that a recent change is only partly reflected. Worth the sentence. A1c_Alder (talk) 09:45, 3 February 2026 (UTC)

And it explains the minimum useful trial duration, which the last section now states. ✓ Done LabRangeLindy (talk) 13:20, 3 February 2026 (UTC)

Resolved. This thread is closed. Reopening it is fine if new sources appear; please add a new subsection rather than editing the closed discussion.

Variant interferenceDone

A discrepancy between HbA1c and other measures should prompt a question about the assay. That framing is more useful than a list of variants. TSH_Tallulah (talk) 10:15, 10 May 2026 (UTC)

Agreed, and the alternatives are named for the case where the measure is unreliable. ✓ Done A1c_Alder (talk) 13:50, 10 May 2026 (UTC)
