I. INTRODUCTION y′ = q (t ) − γ x − δ y (1)
The governing differential equation for insulin response to
Oral Glucose Tolerance Testing Protocol glucose bolus intake is:
The test subjects need to fast for 12 hours before the test
x′ = p ( t ) - α x + β y (2)
and during the 2-hour test. A blood sample of the subject is
taken before the beginning of the test. Then after the subject
drinks a 75 g of glucose solution dissolved in 250–300 mL y(t) : Glucose response of the patient to the oral bolus of
of water, the subject’s blood glucose and insulin glucose.

However, some patients who were clinically declared to be
diabetic turned out to be only border-line. As we continue
this work, we will develop a clinically-implementable
software for model parameter identification and designation
of the subjects as normal or at-risk of becoming diabetic or
border-line diabetic or distinctly diabetic.
