Relationships of Diabetic Neuropathy Risks and Five Inputs of Bmi, Whr, Eag, Diet and Exercise Using Viscoplastic Energy Model of Gh-Method: Mathphysical Medicine

Abstract

Gerald C Hsu

According to PubMed, diabetic neuropathy affects approximately 50% of individuals with type 1 or type 2 diabetes. Another PubMed article reports a prevalence of 40.8% for diabetic neuropathy conditions (DN) in participants with both obesity and diabetes.

From a pathophysiological perspective, DN is intricately linked to metabolic disorders, particularly obesity and type 2 diabetes. Body weight, assessed through BMI and WHR, along with blood glucose levels, directly correlates with both diet and exercise.

Over a 11-year period (2013-2023), the author's food portion decreased from 125% in 2013 to 49% in 2023 (with 100% defined as his "normal" food portion before 2010). His meal quality score has also decreased from 90% in 2013 to 50% in 2023.

Hence, the author explores his annual DN risks associated with five inputs: BMI, WHR, eAG, diet (food portion and meal quality), and walking steps, based on personal data collected between 1/1/2013 and 11/30/2023.

The author, having experienced severe neuropathy complications from type 2 diabetes, introduces the waist-to-hip ratio (WHR) as a new variable in this analysis, an aspect seldom considered in the author's prior studies.
