Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Prevalence of diabetes mellitus (DM), especially type 2 DM (T2DM) has been increasing by the lifestyle westernization. Recent studies suggested that the lifestyle intervention in diet and physical exercise could prevent the development of T2DM. Thus, the lifestyle modification and understanding of consciousness of disease are important for diabetic and prediabetic patients. However, prolonged treatment of a patient with DM often cause the defect of medication regimen compliance and lifestyle improvement, and eventually increase the risk of complications. In this study, we developed a computer simulation model of glycemic control implementing the interaction among three organs (small intestine, liver, and pancreas) which play pivotal roles in glycemic control, using Cell Illustrator (CI) as the computer simulation software. This may be useful for the communication between DM educators and patients, and support the improvement of medication regimen compliance and lifestyle of patients.
