 <p>For this example, assuming a user’s blood glucose was 205 mg/dL at the time of insulin delivery, <abbr title="With a capital L, Loop is one of several do-it-yourself artifical pancreas systems">Loop</abbr> would predict a drop in blood glucose due to the two units delivered at 12 pm as shown in the figure below.</p>

-<p>In traditional basal/bolus pump therapy, basal rates are set to accommodate the user's endogenous glucose production (EGP) that causes blood glucose to rise.

+<p>In traditional basal/bolus pump therapy, basal rates are set to accommodate the user's endogenous glucose production (<abbr title="Endogenous Glucose Production: glucose produced by the body from its reserves (mainly glycogen in the liver)">EGP</abbr>) that causes blood glucose to rise. If a user's basal settings were exactly right in traditional pump therapy, the user would have perfectly flat blood glucose all day, all other factors being equal.</p>
 <p>In reality, people with type 1 diabetes, and their caregivers, know that basal settings are never exactly right. Every day is a little different, and a myriad of factors that affect blood glucose (e.g., including stress, hormones, sleep, etc.) may affect insulin needs. Some people have different basal profiles to accommodate these variations. Some people regularly tune and adjust their basal rates, and/or do so at their endocrinology clinic visits.</p>
 <p>Since the <abbr title="With a capital L, Loop is one of several do-it-yourself artifical pancreas systems">Loop</abbr> algorithm assumes that the user-set basal rates are correct, it calculates the effect of insulin relative to scheduled basal rates. If basal rates are not entirely correct, <abbr title="With a capital L, Loop is one of several do-it-yourself artifical pancreas systems">Loop</abbr> can compensate a bit through the retrospective correction and blood glucose momentum effects, discussed later in this page.</p>
 <p>The insulin delivery chart below displays a bar-graph history of the temporary basal rates enacted by <abbr title="With a capital L, Loop is one of several do-it-yourself artifical pancreas systems">Loop</abbr>. The display is relative to the scheduled basal rates entered in the <abbr title="With a capital L, Loop is one of several do-it-yourself artifical pancreas systems">Loop</abbr> settings. A rate displayed in this chart as +0 would indicate that no temporary basal rate was set and that the basal rate being delivered was the scheduled basal rate. Positive values indicate a temporary basal rate was set above the scheduled basal rate (i.e., more insulin delivered), and negative values indicate that a temporary basal rate was set below the scheduled basal rate (i.e., less insulin delivered).</p>

 <p>Carbohydrates will raise blood glucose, but the speed and degree to which they impact blood glucose are dependent on the type of carbohydrates. High glycemic index (GI) carbohydrates will raise blood glucose quickly over a shorter time, whereas low GI foods will raise blood glucose more slowly over a longer period. Foods like candy, juice, and fruits tend to be high GI foods, while pizza, burritos, and quesadillas are usually lower GI foods. Digestion issues like gastroparesis may also contribute to variations in carbohydrate absorption.</p>
 <p>Because carbohydrate absorption can be quite variable, <abbr title="With a capital L, Loop is one of several do-it-yourself artifical pancreas systems">Loop</abbr> has a model that dynamically adjusts the expected remaining time of carbohydrate absorption. To start with, <abbr title="With a capital L, Loop is one of several do-it-yourself artifical pancreas systems">Loop</abbr> allows the user to input a rough guess of how long they think the food or drink will take to absorb. The user’s guess is used as a middle of the road estimate, and <abbr title="With a capital L, Loop is one of several do-it-yourself artifical pancreas systems">Loop</abbr>’s algorithm will shorten or lengthen it based on observed blood glucose change.</p>
