dc.description.abstractType 1 Diabetes is a condition in which the pancreas does not produce insulin, leading to elevated blood glucose levels. Artificial pancreas systems were developed to automate glucose monitoring and insulin delivery using a closedloop control mechanism. By integrating a continuous glucose monitor, an insulin pump, and a control algorithm, these systems improve blood sugar stability and reduce episodes of hypoglycemia. Although some technical limitations remain, artificial pancreas technology represents an important advancement in biomedical engineering and diabetes management.
