A high percentage of European GA was noted in our patients, even in those who self-reported as non-White, confirming the highly admixed ethnicity of the Brazilian population. Better glycemic control was associated with having both types of health care; however, there was no association between glycemic control with GA or SRCR. Future prospective studies with other admixed populations are necessary to confirm our findings.
