Statistical analysis of diabetes mellitus

This paper deals with an application of regression analysis to the regulation of the blood-sugar under diabetes mellitus. Section 2 gives a description of Gram-Schmidt orthogonalization, while Section 3 discusses the difference between Gauss-Markov estimation and Least Squares Estimation. Section 4 is devoted to the statistical analysis of the blood-sugar during the night. The response change of blood-sugar is explained by three variables: time, food and physical activity ("Bewegung"). At the beginning of the section it is shown that the proposed method was very successful in 2007.
