Using Viscoplastic Energy Model of GH-Method: Math-Physical Medicine to Validate Specific Glucose Dynamics in Type 2 Diabetes Pathophysiological Phenomena (No. 1045, VMT #443)
Author(s): Gerald C. Hsu
Increased body weight, particularly through the accumulation of adipose tissue like visceral fat, is strongly linked to insulin resistance. As time progresses, this insulin resistance can cause fasting plasma glucose (FPG) levels to rise due to a diminishing insulin efficiency. The interplay between fasting plasma glucose levels and the insulin-producing capabilities of pancreatic beta-cells is crucial for blood sugar regulation and understanding the mechanisms behind diabetes, especially type 2 diabetes. Continuous high fasting plasma glucose levels may induce glucose toxicity, impairing beta-cell functionality and potentially leading to beta-cell burnout over time. Fasting Plasma Glucose reflects the equilibrium between glucose production, mainly from the liver, and its consumption by bodily tissues. The capacity to normalize fasting glucose levels post-meal is indicative .. Read More»
