Abstract
This article is Part 9 of the author’s linear elastic glucose behavior study, which focuses on searching for an applicable data range of two glucose coefficients of both GH.f-modules and GH.p-modules via lower bound and upper bounds of predicted postprandial plasma glucose (PPG) values which would be useful to most type 2 diabetes (T2D) patients. The linear elastic glucose behavior equation is: Predicted PPG = (0.97 * GH.f-modulus * Weight) + (GH.p-modulus * Carbs&sugar) - (post-meal walking k-steps * 5) This equation is useful in predicting PPG values and helping patients with their diabetes control. Here is the step-by-step PPG boundary analysis of the eight standard cases using linear elastic glucose theory as described in this paper [10, 17]: 1. Baseline PPG has only two values, i.e. using lower bound of FPG 100*0.97 = 97, and upper bound of FPG 150*0.97 =146 2. plus carbs/sugar intake amount’s lower bound of 10 grams of carbs/sugar intake: 97+10*GH.p 2.0 = 97+20 = 117 mg/dL, and higher bound of 25 grams of carbs/sugar intake: 146 + 25*6.0 = 146+150 = 296 mg/dL 3. minus post-meal walking k-steps’ lower bound of 4K steps: -5*4 = - 20 = 117-20 =97 mg/dL, and higher bound of 1K steps: -5*1 = -5 = 296-5 = 291 mg/dL 4. Therefore, the boundary of predicted PPG shows data is located within the numerical range of lower bound of 97 mg/dL & upper bound of 291 mg/dL.
