ALEXANDRIA, Va., July 28 -- United States Patent no. 12,690,820, issued on July 28, was assigned to M-DT-1 (Roquefort-les-Pins, France).

"Detection of prolonged postprandial hyperglycemia, glycemic peak linear prediction and insulin delivery adjustment" was invented by Jean Noel Gouze (Roquefort-les-Pins, France).

According to the abstract* released by the U.S. Patent & Trademark Office: "Postprandial glycemic peak can be predicted from a pre-prandial glucose measurement and a postprandial measurement few minutes after a meal defining a glucose rise rate. A linear relationship gives the peak glucose increase from the glucose rise rate. Hence, peak characteristics are obtained. Accurate peak prediction given known error margins is strongly...
