Objectives: To study an unexpected, significant increase in glucose measurements during 7 year recruitment to a cohort study.Design and methods: Measurements of quality control solutions and blood glucose in pregnant women were done by Accu-Chek Sensor glucometer. Time-trends were analysed by regression models and control charts.Results: Cohort measurements were de-trended by weighted linear regressions based on independent control values.Conclusions: Biologically implausible trends in data can be corrected by using independent control values.
