Zusammenfassung:Systems and methods are provided for adjusting a basal/bolus ratio in a standing insulin regimen for a subject that comprises daily amounts of basal and bolus insulin medicaments that define an initial basal/bolus ratio. A data set comprising glucose measurements of the subject with a respective timestamp for each such measurement over a time course is obtained. One or more fasting events are identified in the time course. A temporal glucose gradient is computed for each fasting event using the glucose measurements in the data set within the fasting event time period. Fasting event glucose gradients are used to determine whether to recommend adjustment to the basal/bolus ratio for the subject without change to the daily total insulin medicament. The recommended adjustment to the basal/bolus ratio is communicated when the determination is made to make the recommended adjustment to the basal/bolus ratio for the subject.
