Glucose Metabolism Interpreter

Provides a comprehensive metabolic assessment of blood glucose control and helps distinguish between common glucose metabolism disorders, including type 1, type 2, and type 3 diabetes, pre-diabetes, insulin resistance.

Patient Adherence Checks

The patient needs to be fasted for 10 to 15 hours and not on insulin for this interpretation to work.
Fasting Status Unknown
Enter Glucose and HbA1c
Exogenous Insulin Status Unknown
Enter C-peptide and Insulin

Diagnosis Summary

Based on standard diagnostic criteria. Diagnosis requires two abnormal screening test results. Only your doctor can make a formal diagnosis.

How effectively your body uses insulin:

  • 0.4 - 0.6Too sensitive (malnutrition, marathon runners...)
  • 1.2 - 1.7Insulin resistance
  • 1.7 - 2.7Pre-diabetes likely
  • > 2.7Diabetes likely

How effectively your pancreas produces insulin to manage blood sugar (given as a percentage of expected output).

  • Elevated/High (or even normal) during early insulin resistance, when the pancreas can still compensate.
  • Decreased once the pancreas fails to compensate (late stage).

LDH: 000 IU/L

Lactate dehydrogenase is an intracellular enzyme released into the blood from damaged or stressed cells, most abundantly from muscle, liver, heart, kidneys, lungs, and red blood cells.

Why this beats ChatGPT

Glucose Metabolism Interpreter first mathematically verifies the patient's fasting status and exogenous insulin status. It can be used for screening based on non-insulin-dependent indexes, or for diagnostic purposes based on a 4-dimension view (HOMA2-B, HOMA2-S, LDH, Triglycerides) to classify the type of dysfunction. Chatbots don't do that.

All research is done by humans. AI helps with coding and refining text for better readability.
