A Simplified yet Accurate Linear Equation of PPG Prediction Model for Type 2 Diabetes Patients (GH-Method: Math-Physical Medicine)

Abstract

PPG contributes approximately 75% to 80% of HbA1C. Through the author’s diabetes research, he has identified at least 19 influential factors associated with PPG formation. He further utilized 8 influential factors and Artificial Intelligence (AI) optical physics technology to develop an AI-based Glucometer APP to predict PPG. Whether the involved factors are 8 or 19, it is a complicated task for patients to learn, understand, or use in terms of their diabetes control. Among those factors, as indicated in his previous publications, carbs/sugar intake amount contributes ~38% and exercise contributes ~41% of PPG. In summary, these two primary influential factors contribute ~80% of the PPG formation [1-4].
