Mathematical modelling of blood glucose regulation
… is beneficial for all individuals; it lowers blood pressure, keeps the heart healthy and increases insulin sensitivity. Recent studies have shown the power that regular exercise has to improve metabolic health, which in turn works to prevent and to reverse the onset of the widespread epidemics …

Novel nutritional interventions in the manipulation of energy expenditure and blood glucose regulation in humans
… effects on components of energy balance and blood glucose regulation. Studies of their supplementation among humans are none (in case of L-Histidine) or very limited (in case of EGCG supplementation). The studies presented herein are novel as there have been no previous studies conducted to …

Models and nonlinear control strategies for blood glucose regulation in artificial pancreas [Modelli e strategie di controllo non lineare per la regolazione della glicemia nel pancreas artificiale]
Il diabete di tipo 1 è una malattia autoimmune in cui il sistema immunitario attacca e distrugge accidentalmente le cellule beta nel pancreas, limitando la capacità dell'organo di produrre insulina. Un pancreas artificiale è una tecnica che utilizza una pompa per somministrare la giusta …

Linear Modeling and Prediction in Diabetes Physiology
… of the organism to autonomously regulate the blood glucose level due to insulin deficiency or resistance, leading to serious health damages. The therapy is essentially based on insulin injections and depends strongly on patient daily decisions, being mainly based upon empirical experience and …

Analysis of Dietary Intake, Body Composition and Biomarkers in Adults with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus, Prediabetes and Without Diabetes
… provided an analysis and comparison of specific blood values, dietary intake, body composition, and inflammatory markers (high sensitivity-C-reactive protein (HS-CRP), tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α), and interleukin-6 (IL-6)) between adults with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and …

STRATEGIES FOR REDUCING HYPOXIC INJURY TO THE BIOARTIFICAL PANCREAS
… The goal of this approach is to restore blood glucose regulation and prevent the long-term comorbidities of Type-1 Diabetes without the need for immunosuppressants. However, islets are highly metabolically active and require a significant amount of oxygen for normal function, and during …

Metabolic and hormonal responses in the regulation of blood glucose levels in infants delivered by elective caesarean section
… postnatal failures of expression of the hepatic glucose-6-phosphatase system suggest there are developmental deficiencies in the mechanism to ‘switch-on’ this key enzyme of gluconeogenesis at the time of birth in both preterm and term infants. The evidence for hormonal regulation of this critical …
