Abstract
A method is provided for evaluating a set of measurement data from an oral glucose tolerance test. The method may include calculating a similarity measure that quantifies the similarity between a time profile of the series of measured data of the glucose concentration and a corresponding glucose reference profile. The method may include calculating a further similarity measure that quantifies the similarity between the profile of the series of measured values of the further analyte concentration and the corresponding analyte sample profile, wherein the data set is represented by a point in a vector space that comprises coordinate axes that are formed by the similarity measures, whereby the coordinates of said point contain the calculated values of the similarity measures. The method also may include evaluating the position of the point with respect to reference points, which each represent a defined state of health, in order to calculate a parameter that specifies the state of the glucose metabolism of the patient.
