Abstract
In this paper we analyze a mathematical model (called MINMOD) that describes the interactions between glucose and insulin in human subjects, in order to realize an adequate model for ill patients, suffering from Diabetes Mellitus (DM) Type 2. Our model has been tested on the basis of clinical data and it has correctly reproduced glucose and insulin reply and temporal evolution, according to experimental data test. This model could, in the future, contribute to predict glucose and insulin behavior in ill patients and suggest the adequate treatment.
