Early detection of infectious diseases is crucial. The Automatic Infection Detection (AID) system hypothesizes that elevated blood glucose (BG) levels indicate infection, potentially enabling earlier detection than current methods.

Area of Science:

  • Infectious Disease Epidemiology
  • Biomedical Signal Processing
  • Clinical Diagnostics

Background:

  • Infectious individuals can be contagious before symptom onset, complicating disease spread control.
  • Early detection of contagion is vital for preventing widespread outbreaks.
  • Current early warning systems for infectious diseases have limitations in timely detection.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To investigate the hypothesis that blood glucose (BG) levels rise during the incubation period of an infection.
  • To prototype an Automatic Infection Detection (AID) system for identifying early signs of contagion.
  • To assess the feasibility of using BG monitoring for early infection detection.

Main Methods:

  • Monitoring BG levels in two groups: individuals with and without diabetes mellitus.

  • Developing and applying an AID system to analyze BG data for infection-related patterns.
  • Comparing AID system detection times with symptom onset.

    • Main Results:

    • The AID system successfully detected two infection cases during the study period.
    • Detection occurred concurrently with or shortly after symptom onset.
    • The system demonstrated potential for earlier infection detection compared to existing methods, despite limitations.

    Conclusions:

    • The AID system shows promise in detecting infections earlier than conventional methods.
    • Elevated BG levels may serve as an indicator of infection, even in non-diabetic individuals.
    • Further research is needed to refine the AID system for complex infectious disease processes.
