Development of a non-invasive transdermal continuous glucose monitor for preterm neonates
Today, glucose is still measured invasively at the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU)by sampling blood of extreme and very preterm neonates only every few hours because of the unavailability of accurate non-invasive and continuous monitoring technology dedicated to these very sensitive patients. …

Effectiveness of Continuous Glucose Monitoring in Children, Adolescents and Young Adults with Poorly Controlled Type 1 Diabetes
… In the last 10 years a new device called a continuous glucose monitor has been developed for use with people with diabetes. This new device documents the blood sugar levels in people with diabetes between finger stick blood sugar tests.;Objectives: This study utilized a newly developed …

Proportional-integral control in the evaluation of glucose homeostasis and Type 2 Diabetes
… to find parameter values that yield plausible glucose behaviour. These hormone measurements require repeated blood tests and limit the feasibility of applying the model to “real world” medical applications such as disease diagnosis. We apply a proportional-integral control model to human …

Second Generation Photoactivated Insulins
… is a minimally invasive approach developed for a continuously variable light stimulated release of insulin. In this approach, a protein depot that can last for days is injected under the skin. A light source placed on the skin above the site of injection can trigger protein release into the blood …

Chemical strategies for improving anti-diabetic glucagon therapy
… critical functions in the human metabolism, viz. glucose homeostasis. It achieves homeostasis by producing hormones including insulin and glucagon which act on different cell types to affect blood glucose concentrations. Under certain conditions, the concentration of blood glucose falls below …

Characterizing the Use of Continuous Glucose Monitors During Experimentally-Induced Short-Term Low Energy Availability in Female Endurance Runners
… Preliminary evidence suggests that fasting blood glucose (BG) concentration decreases in response to short-term energy deficiency (low energy availability). BG monitoring tools, such as continuous glucose monitors (CGM), could be used as an early detection device for LEA risk in athletes. PURPOSE: …

Efficacy and Feasibility of Fully Automated Closed Loop Insulin Pump Therapy after Islet Auto-Transplantation
… injections (n=7) for 72 hours. Results: Mean glucose was significantly lower in the experimental group than in the control group (111±4 v. 130±13mg/dL; p=0.003). Glycemic variability (StDev 14.1±3.3 v. 21.0±10.2mg/dL; p=0.115), hyperglycemia AUC (2025±1177 v. 7860±11444min*mg/dL; p=0.2045) and …

Investigation of glucose and energy metabolism in eumenorrheic female ultra-runners across the menstrual cycle
… athletes, ultra-running, and the utilization of continuous glucose sensors in endurance sports are each individually underrepresented in current literature. When these areas are examined collectively, a substantial gap in knowledge becomes evident. Therefore, the purpose of this PhD study was to …

Precision Technologies and Data Analytics for Monitoring Ruminants
… sustainability by integrating individual animal monitoring and automated control over animal productivity, environmental impacts, health, and welfare parameters. Although PLF holds promise for improving livestock management practices, its widespread adoption is hindered by challenges including …
