I would like somebody to write a programming code in MATLAB for this fairly simple task, its to model an insulin regimen, that simply takes a value of an impulse in insulin U unit and the plots the insulin flow concentration over time Iex (U/min).
Don't get put down on the unfamiliar units the regimen works fairly the same as when you take your meal (this is the impulse) and then your blood glucose starts increasing over time and decrease at the end (the concentration).
This involves a coupled partial differential equation of which I'm not at all very familiar with. There are 2 types of insulin which is Rapid Acting (R) and Long Acting (L) insulin, the former will produce a rapid response while the latter with a steady and longer response. This depends as well on the value of insulin which varies between 3 to 20 U/ml. The plot should follow fairly or more or less the plot in Figure 3.15 in 'Insulin Regimen' paper attached with the correct unit of time (minutes/hours) and exogenous insulin flow Iex (U/min).
I attach the papers which explains all the parameters and constants. One named 'Insulin Regimen' is already sufficient for this task but I attach as well the original paper referred from it named 'Comprehensive Pharmacokinetics'.
They only need a proper programming, an impulse and you should get the simulated graph shown in the article when modelling this. I prefer that with the code I can set the input to be just the type of insulin whether it is R or L and value of insulin applied.
It's very doable, I have done it with the carbohydrate regimen but I don't have much time for this one especially since I don't know much about PDEs.
Please do ask anything if you are [login to view URL] a lot and I appreciate anyone who can help with this.
Hello,
I have gone through the attachments and can deliver you the code for solving the system of pdes. This can easily be done using pdepe package in MATLAB.
Let's discuss
