A Simplified Diabetes Control Method by Applying Three GH-Moduli for Calculating Predicted Linear Postprandial Plasma Glucoses based on 12-year Lifestyle Data and Finger-Pierced Glucoses using GH-Method: Math-Physical Medicine, LEGT Part 28 (No. 417)
Abstract

On 10/14/2020, the author wrote his first research note on his developed linear elastic glucose theory (LEGT). Over the past 5+ months, he has continuously conducted his research on this subject and completed a summary report, No. 415, LEGT Part 26 on 3/15/2021. The majority of his research notes are based on sensor-collected data, from a self-monitoring of blood glucose (SMBG) device, synthesized the collected data into a PPG waveform with 180-minutes time span. On 3/22/2021, he started to examine the applicability of his LEGT on a nonlinear PPG wave in a time domain against his previously collected PPG data via the finger-piercing method over the past 12 years. In summary, similar to the Young’s modulus of engineering materials, the GH.p-Modulus for diet is the most important and complicated biomedical GH-modulus of those three defined GH-Moduli by the author. This GH.p is related to and also dependent on the patient’s overall metabolic conditions, age, lifestyle, health, medical diseases, types of food, amount of carbs/sugar intake, and to some degree the chosen time-window for certain analyses. Nevertheless, its linear and elastic behaviors and general glucose characteristics are quite comparable to the Young’s modulus of stress and strain in theory of elasticity of engineering. Thus far, all of the author’s collected glucose data and behaviors appeared are very well within the defined “elastic” region. Therefore, his developed LEGT should be useful for other type 2 diabetes (T2D) patients to control their diabetes conditions.
