It consisted of a cross-sectional retrospective review of data from a 2022 Uniform Data System diabetes report which revealed disparities in hemoglobin A1C (HbA1C) control between patients aged 18-29 and patients of all other age groups. The review elucidated clinic-specific factors contributing to these disparities and identified ways clinicians may optimize and improve HbA1C control for emerging adult patients with diabetes.}, url = {http://digitalcollections.ohsu.edu/record/42877}, }
