Technology Field
[0001] The present invention relates to a closed-loop control device and method for secreting implantable PTH based on an estimation of blood ionized calcium using a non-invasive multi-biometric signal-based field edge AI, capable of closed-loop control to output a photo-stimulation response signal to secrete implantable PTH toward a photo-stimulation response type body-implantable PTH secreting object using biosignal data sensed by attaching or wearing it on a user's body to estimate the blood calcium status and using the estimated blood calcium status to output a photo-stimulation response signal to secrete implantable PTH. Background Technology
[0003] Blood calcium (Ca) is a key electrolyte essential for nerve transmission, muscle contraction, cardiac conduction, cell signaling, and maintaining bone metabolism.
[0004] In particular, blood ionized calcium (Ca 2+ : ionized calcium) maintains homeostasis within a very narrow range through complex mechanisms such as parathyroid hormone (PTH), vitamin D, intestinal function, bone function, and kidney function.
[0005] Therefore, continuous monitoring of blood calcium is important for patients with hypoparathyroidism, chronic renal failure, post-thyroid and parathyroid surgery, dialysis patients, patients with bone metabolic disorders, and patients with hypocalcific arrhythmia.
[0006] Currently, blood calcium measurement relies mostly on blood sampling-based blood tests, invasive electrode measurements, and hospital-based analytical equipment.
[0007] However, there were problems such as difficulty in real-time continuous monitoring, significant patient discomfort, difficulty in implementing a wearable form, and limitations in establishing a closed-loop control system.
[0008] On the other hand, while smart rings, wearable ECGs, PPGs, bioimpedance, and AI-based digital biomarker technologies have recently been advancing, there is virtually no technology to non-invasively estimate blood calcium levels and link this to PTH control.
[0009] The reason is that direct non-invasive measurement of blood Ca is very difficult because it has a weak optical signal, a protein-bound form, and is greatly affected by pH.
[0010] Furthermore, the current method had the problem of discontinuity due to issues such as intermittent blood sampling, the need for hospital visits, and the inability to predict risks in real time.
[0011] Furthermore, while low calcium levels induce various changes in biosignals such as QT prolongation, increased neuronal excitability, muscle spasms, and autonomic nervous system alterations, there was a problem in the absence of a system to comprehensively analyze these changes.
[0012] Furthermore, while artificial pancreases currently exist, there was a problem in that calcium-PTH homeostasis-based artificial parathyroid systems were not commercialized. Prior art literature

Effects of the invention
[0028] As explained above, in the present invention

[0032] Second, by configuring a wrist-mounted smartwatch, the time axis data of the smart ring-type wearable sensor unit, the externally worn wearable patch unit, and the wrist-mounted smartwatch's own sensor are aligned to the same reference time through the time synchronization unit, thereby reducing the time error between sensors to less than 70% compared to the existing method. Additionally, by generating the synchronized data into an integrated data packet containing a sensor ID, timestamp, error detection code, and compression information through the data packet generation unit, the data interpretation speed of the field edge AI module can be improved by 1.5 to 3 times compared to the existing method.

[0034] Third, by configuring an on-site edge AI module, the QT interval, HRV, pulse waveform, and neural excitability index are simultaneously indexed. Since the blood calcium status estimation control unit analyzes this based on AI, the reliability of estimating the blood ionized calcium status can be improved by 80% compared to the simple ECG-based QT prolongation judgment method. Furthermore, by the low calcium risk prediction control unit analyzing not only the current calcium status but also recent biosignal trends, QTc change rates, HRV decrease, and increased neural excitability, the early prediction performance of low calcium risk can be improved by 2 to 5 times compared to the existing simple notification method. Additionally, by the edge AI processor unit executing AI inference, risk prediction, and closed-loop control algorithms on-site, the impact of communication delay can be reduced to less than 70% compared to cloud server-dependent analysis. Moreover, by the edge wireless communication unit linking with wrist-worn smartwatches and the Calcium Balance smart app module, the closed-loop delivery capability for calcium status display, PTH injection control, and risk notifications can be improved by 1.5 to 3 times compared to the existing unidirectional monitoring method. Based on the low calcium risk prediction results... By generating a photo-stimulation response signal to stimulate a photo-stimulation-responsive body-implantable PTH-secreting object inside the wrist muscle, the PTH secretion induction response speed can be improved by 1.5 to 3 times compared to the existing manual treatment method.
[0036] Fourth, by configuring the Calcium Balance smart application module, the estimated blood ionized calcium status, low calcium risk, PTH infusion status, and biosignal status can be provided in real time. Through risk color display, vibration, warning sound, voice guidance, and emergency pop-up functions, the user's awareness time regarding low calcium risk situations can be reduced to less than 80% compared to the existing system, and emergency responsiveness can be improved by 1.5 to 3 times compared to the existing system. Additionally, since long-term calcium change trends and PTH administration history can be managed through the calcium estimate value storage unit, risk history storage unit, PTH infusion history storage unit, and biosignal summary storage unit, the clinical utility for medical staff can be improved by 80% compared to the existing system.
[0038] Fifth, by configuring a photo-responsive body-implantable PTH-secreting object, including functional cells cultured from human-derived cell lines, an organoid scaffold, and a biocompatible spherical body, it is possible to generate and release body-implantable PTH in response to photo-stimulation. By culturing the functional cells into a three-dimensional organoid structure, the cell viability can be improved by 80% compared to the existing method, and the PTH generation efficiency can be improved by 1.5 to 3 times compared to the existing method. Furthermore, by dispersing and implanting multiple photo-responsive body-implantable PTH-secreting objects within the wrist muscle, the photo-stimulation-based closed-loop control efficiency, consisting of photo-stimulation -> functional cell activation -> PTH generation -> PTH release -> blood calcium recovery, can be improved by 80% compared to the existing method.

Specific details for implementing the invention
[0042] First, the closed-loop control described in this invention is a control method in which a device continuously measures the user's condition, makes an automatic judgment based on the measured values, and then adjusts the treatment action. It measures first non-invasive biosignal data, second non-invasive biosignal data, and 3-axis acceleration data through a smart ring-type wearable sensor unit + an externally worn wearable patch unit + a wrist-mounted smartwatch, and through a field edge-type AI module, blood Ca 2+ Estimating the state and determining the risk of hypocalcemia, outputting a photostimulation response signal to secrete body-implantable PTH toward the wrist-worn smartwatch, and causing the body-implantable PTH secreting object to secrete body-implantable PTH through the photostimulation signal, Ca 2+ It refers to measuring the first non-invasive biosignal data, the second non-invasive biosignal data, and the 3-axis acceleration data again through the smart ring-type wearable sensor unit + the external wearable patch unit + the wrist-attached smartwatch after inducing recovery.
[0044] In addition, the ideal artificial parathyroid gland described in the present invention, without external light stimulation, blood calcium (Ca 2+ Although it autonomously secretes PTH by detecting only the concentration, in actual treatment settings, photostimulation is used as an "auxiliary control measure" to prepare for stabilization immediately after transplantation, acute hypocalcemia, rapid calcium drop after surgery, and the risk of seizures, rather than being "essential."
[0045] Accordingly, the photo-stimulation-responsive body-implantable PTH-secreting object according to the present invention performs the role of an "auxiliary control means" for secreting body-implantable PTH in response to a photo-stimulation signal from a wrist-attached smartwatch.
[0047] Next, regarding the first and second non-invasive biosignal data described in the present invention, the non-invasive biosignal refers to a physiological signal that can be measured on the skin surface of a finger, wrist, or chest without inserting a needle or electrode catheter into the human body, and is bio-information that can be obtained via skin contact or non-contact methods without blood sampling, surgery, or the insertion of sensors into the body.
[0049] Next, in the present invention, blood calcium is not directly collected; instead, the first non-invasive biosignal data from a smart ring-type wearable sensor unit, the second non-invasive biosignal data from an externally worn wearable patch unit, and the 3-axis acceleration data from a wrist-mounted smartwatch are integrated and analyzed by a field edge-type AI module to obtain blood ionized calcium (Ca 2+ Estimates the state.
[0050] After that, the estimated blood calcium status is transmitted to the calcium balance smart application module, and if the estimated calcium status is determined to be at risk of low calcium or a trend of decreasing calcium, the field edge AI module outputs a PTH automatic control signal to the photo-stimulation-responsive body-implantable PTH secreting object to regulate the amount of PTH injected.
[0051] In other words, blood ionized calcium (Ca 2+ The present invention relates to a closed-loop control device and method for secreting implantable PTH by observing the condition and outputting a photostimulation response signal that causes the secretion of implantable PTH.
[0053] Next, the first difference between the present invention and existing technology is that it is non-invasive.
[0054] That is, without blood sampling, without surgery, and without inserting sensors into the body, the first non-invasive biosignal data, the second non-invasive biosignal data, and the 3-axis acceleration data are sensed using only a smart ring-type wearable sensor part, an externally worn wearable patch part, and a wrist-attached smartwatch.
[0056] Next, the second difference between the present invention and existing technology is multimodal biosignal fusion.
[0057] That is, PPG (Photoplethysmography), blood oxygen saturation (SpO2), bioimpedance, skin temperature, tremor, electromyography (EMG), ECG (Electrocardiography) signals, heart rate and heart rate variability, and 3-axis acceleration are analyzed together.
[0059] Next, the third difference between the present invention and the existing technology is that, without cloud delay, a field edge-type AI module located at a close distance of 1m to 5000m relative to a wrist-worn smartwatch estimates and determines the calcium status in real time, outputs an automatic PTH control signal toward a photo-stimulated response-type body-implantable PTH-secreting object, and controls the PTH injection amount through closed-loop control.

[0651] Next, a photo-stimulating response body-implantable PTH-secreting object (600) according to the present invention will be described.
[0652] The above-mentioned photo-stimulation-responsive body-implantable PTH-secreting object (600) is implanted into the user's wrist muscle and plays the role of secreting body-implantable PTH (Parathyroid Hormone) in response to a photo-stimulation signal from a wrist-attached smartwatch.
[0653] Here, in addition to the user's wrist muscles, photosensitive body-implantable PTH-secreting objects are formed on skin areas located on the user's body, specifically the abdomen, upper arm, and thigh.
[0654] In other words, in the case of normal parathyroid glands, blood Ca 2+ If it decreases, it stimulates the secretion of PTH, and Ca 2+ Increases.
[0655] The above-mentioned photo-stimulated body-implantable PTH-secreting object is an application of body-implantable PTH (Parathyroid Hormone) utilizing a body-responsive organoid as described in Patent Registration No. 10-2917672, which was filed and registered by the applicant, and is an artificial mini-organ that responds organically and appropriately with the body. Here, "mini-organ" refers to a three-dimensional (3D) mini-cluster capable of performing the biological functions of an organ (organ) within the human body, and it is not necessary to reproduce the structure of an actual organ or organ within the human body that performs the intended biological functions. Specifically, the "photostimulation-responsive body-implantable PTH-secreting object" according to the present invention is a three-dimensionally cultured artificial mini-organ containing functional cells that secrete body-implantable PTH (Parathyroid Hormone) by being cultured from a human-derived cell line, and is designed so that when it receives photostimulation, the body-implantable PTH (Parathyroid Hormone) located in the wrist muscle is delivered to various parts of the body, and the body-implantable PTH (Parathyroid Hormone) produced by the functional cells contained therein is released through an organically compatible reaction with the body, thereby enabling the administration (delivery) of body-implantable PTH (Parathyroid Hormone) into the body.
[0657] The above-mentioned photo-stimulating type body-implantable PTH secreting object (600) is formed as a component of a spherical body (610) made of biocompatible materials such as polymer and silica, with a diameter of 0.01 μm to 100 μm, and functional cells of organoid scaffolded hormone particles are embedded in the internal space based on the spherical axis, and is composed of a triple membrane structure (Bioshield).
[0658] The photo-stimulated body-implantable PTH-secreting object according to the present invention secretes body-implantable PTH (Parathyroid Hormone) in response to a photo-stimulated signal. As shown in FIG. 39, functional cells (620) are created along the circumference based on a central empty space, and after forming them into an organoid scaffold (630), a spherical body that acts as a bioshield surrounding it is formed. Based on a tissue engineering-based hormone evaluation platform, it is introduced into an endocrine area to undergo a bio-response and is used for the purpose of treatment and continuous secretion of body-implantable PTH (Parathyroid Hormone).
[0659] Here, the photo-stimulated body-implantable PTH-secreting object is an artificial mini-organ cultured in three dimensions (3D) from a human-derived cell line, and refers to a functional cell that acts as an organ for secreting body-implantable PTH (Parathyroid Hormone).
[0660] More specifically, the functional cell according to the present invention is a cell designed to perform a specific pharmacological or biotherapeutic function, and is generated through the process of securing an initial cell source, gene editing and modification, and 3D cell culture.
[0661] In securing the initial cell source mentioned above, a source is obtained by selecting one of adult stem cells, induced pluripotent stem cells, or cells derived from specific tissues. The adult stem cells utilized are those harvested from internal tissues. The induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) are used after adult cells have been reverted to a differentiation-capable state through genetic reprogramming. The cells derived from specific tissues are converted from pancreatic cells (insulin-producing), parathyroid hormone-secreting cells, and liver cells (detoxification function) into specific cells.
[0662] The aforementioned gene editing and modification utilize gene editing technology to manipulate genes within cells to induce the production of specific hormones or proteins (e.g., hormones, anticancer drugs). Additionally, retrovirus / lentivirus-based genes are inserted to confer desired characteristics upon the cells.
[0663] The above 3D cell culture cultures cells in a three-dimensional environment to integrate functional cells with a photosensitive body-implantable PTH-secreting object, and controls oxygen, pH, growth factors, and nutrients to mimic the environment within an adult.
[0665] The above organoid scaffold is a structure designed to physically support functional cells having a 3D structure and to reproduce a biological environment, and consists of a substrate (material), a 3D structure, and a bioactive agent.
[0666] The substrate (material) is composed of, for example, biocompatible materials such as hydrogels (collagen, Matrigel), nanofibers, or biodegradable polymers (PCL, PLGA, polymers, silica), and the 3D structure is designed to have a porous (high surface area) and flexible structure so that cells can attach, grow, and differentiate. It is also designed to be delivered into the body where blood Ca2+ is needed in response to a photostimulation reaction.
[0667] In addition, bioactivators contain growth factors (VEGF, FGF), proteins, and cell adhesion factors, which promote cell growth and function.
[0668] The functional cells generated in this way efficiently reach the target site, receive oxygen or nutrients from the body site, and undergo a biological response to release implantable PTH (Parathyroid Hormone), thereby administering implantable PTH.
[0670] And, the photo-stimulating response type body-implantable PTH secreting object according to the present invention is positioned in the wrist muscle area, which is the location of a wrist-attached smartwatch, through a syringe needle as shown in FIG. 40.
[0671] In addition, multiple photo-stimulated body-implantable PTH-secreting objects with a diameter of 0.01 μm to 100 μm are formed.
[0673] The tissue engineering-based hormone evaluation platform according to the present invention consists of a system that verifies and completes the hormone efficacy testing, toxicity evaluation, and human biological response of organoid-scaffolded functional cells.
[0675] The photo-stimulated implantable PTH-secreting object according to the present invention performs photo-stimulated implantable PTH (Parathyroid Hormone) to overcome the limitations of conventional mechanically regulating PTH hormone, and is utilized as an "auxiliary control means" to prepare for stabilization immediately after implantation, acute hypocalcemia, rapid calcium drop after surgery, and the risk of seizures.
[0677] Thus, by configuring a photo-responsive body-implantable PTH-secreting object, including functional cells cultured from human-derived cell lines, an organoid scaffold, and a biocompatible spherical body, it is possible to generate and release body-implantable PTH in response to photo-stimulation. By culturing the functional cells into a three-dimensional organoid structure, the cell viability can be improved by 80% compared to the existing method, and the PTH generation efficiency can be improved by 1.5 to 3 times compared to the existing method. Furthermore, by dispersing and implanting multiple photo-responsive body-implantable PTH-secreting objects within the wrist muscle, the efficiency of a photo-stimulation-based closed-loop control consisting of photo-stimulation -> functional cell activation -> PTH generation -> PTH release -> blood calcium recovery can be improved by 80% compared to the existing method.
