Individualized Prediction of Blood Glucose Outcomes Using Compositional Data Analysis

Abstract

This paper presents an individualized multiple linear regression model based on compositional data where we predict the mean and coefficient of variation of blood glucose in individuals with type 1 diabetes for the long-term (2 and 4 h). From these predictions, we estimate the minimum and maximum glucose values to provide future glycemic status. The proposed methodology has been validated using a dataset of 226 real adult patients with type 1 diabetes (Replace BG (NCT02258373)). The obtained results show a median balanced accuracy and sensitivity of over 90% and 80%, respectively. A information system has been implemented and validated to update patients on their glycemic status and associated risks for the next few hours
