Detection of fasting blood sugar using a microwave sensor and convolutional neural network.

Scientific reports
Monitoring of fasting blood sugar (FBS) is a critical component in the diagnosis and management of diabetes, one of the most widespread chronic diseases globally. Microwave sensing-particularly through microstrip-based sensors-has recently gained att...

Maternal and umbilical cord plasma purine concentrations after oral carbohydrate loading prior to elective Cesarean delivery under spinal anesthesia: a randomized controlled trial.

BMC pregnancy and childbirth
OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the effect of preoperative intake of oral carbohydrates versus standard preoperative fasting prior to elective cesarean delivery on plasma purine levels (hypoxanthine, xanthine, and uric acid) and beta-hydroxybutyrate (β-HB) in...

Weight loss-independent changes in human growth hormone during water-only fasting: a secondary evaluation of a randomized controlled trial.

Frontiers in endocrinology
INTRODUCTION: Water-only fasting for one day or more may provide health benefits independent of weight loss. Human growth hormone (HGH) may play a key role in multiple fasting-triggered mechanisms. Whether HGH changes during fasting are independent o...

Mixed-effects neural network modelling to predict longitudinal trends in fasting plasma glucose.

BMC medical research methodology
BACKGROUND: Accurate fasting plasma glucose (FPG) trend prediction is important for management and treatment of patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), a globally prevalent chronic disease. (Generalised) linear mixed-effects (LME) models and m...

Modeling the fasting blood glucose response to basal insulin adjustment in type 2 diabetes: An explainable machine learning approach on real-world data.

International journal of medical informatics
INTRODUCTION: Optimal basal insulin titration for people with type 2 diabetes is vital to effectively reducing the risk of complications. However, a sizeable proportion of people (30-50 %) remain in suboptimal glycemic control six months post-initiat...

DiaNet v2 deep learning based method for diabetes diagnosis using retinal images.

Scientific reports
Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a prevalent chronic metabolic disorder linked to increased morbidity and mortality. With a significant portion of cases remaining undiagnosed, particularly in the Middle East North Africa (MENA) region, more accurate and acc...

Triangulation of Questionnaires, Qualitative Data and Natural Language Processing: A Differential Approach to Religious Bahá'í Fasting in Germany.

Journal of religion and health
Approaches to integrating mixed methods into medical research are gaining popularity. To get a holistic understanding of the effects of behavioural interventions, we investigated religious fasting using a triangulation of quantitative, qualitative, a...

Intermittent fasting-induced biomolecular modifications in rat tissues detected by ATR-FTIR spectroscopy and machine learning algorithms.

Analytical biochemistry
This study aimed to reveal the intermittent fasting-induced alterations in biomolecules of the liver, ileum, and colon tissues of rats using Support Vector Machine (SVM) and Linear Discriminant Analysis (LDA) algorithms developed on infrared spectroc...

Artificial Intelligence (AI) based machine learning models predict glucose variability and hypoglycaemia risk in patients with type 2 diabetes on a multiple drug regimen who fast during ramadan (The PROFAST - IT Ramadan study).

Diabetes research and clinical practice
OBJECTIVE: To develop a machine-based algorithm from clinical and demographic data, physical activity and glucose variability to predict hyperglycaemic and hypoglycaemic excursions in patients with type 2 diabetes on multiple glucose lowering therapi...

Early detection of type 2 diabetes mellitus using machine learning-based prediction models.

Scientific reports
Most screening tests for T2DM in use today were developed using multivariate regression methods that are often further simplified to allow transformation into a scoring formula. The increasing volume of electronically collected data opened the opport...
