Abstract

Gerald C Hsu

The author celebrated his birthday with a lunch party on 1/16/2022, where he consumed 20% of a large cake. His fingerpierced postprandial plasma glucose (PPG) level reached 171 mg/dL after the luncheon. Afterwards, over several days, he noticed that his overall PPG level and estimated daily average glucose level (eAG) also increased. Out of curiosity regarding the possible extent of the residual effect on his PPG and eAG due to a single hyperglycemic glucose, he decided to conduct this particular research work. The following paragraphs outline his work steps of the project. First, he queried his database containing 4,134 meals from the period of 5/5/2018 to 1/26/2022 for lunches with hyperglycemic levels above 170 mg/dL. He identified 20 hyperglycemic lunches. Next, he selected the following from the 20 days data: carbs/sugar intake amount, post-meal walking k-steps, finger PPG, and eAG. He then created an independent data table used to calculate the corresponding average values. Second, he chose the 10 prior days, excluding the luncheon and labeled them the “prior” period, and the 10 post days, which included the birthday lunch, named the “post” period. He then synthesized the ~30 meals’ PPG data of each period and transferred them into another data table. By using the time-domain PPG dataset with 15-minute intervals for a 3-hour timeframe for each meal’s PPG, he plotted the time-domain PPG waveforms for the prior and post periods.
