Time Series Endocrine Deconvolution

Meaning

A specialized mathematical and computational technique applied to high-frequency hormone concentration data collected over time to separate the underlying secretory events from the confounding effects of hormone clearance and measurement noise. This deconvolution allows for the accurate estimation of key physiological parameters, such as hormone secretion pulse frequency, pulse amplitude, and half-life. It provides a granular and dynamic view of the central neuroendocrine control mechanisms, moving beyond the limitations of static measurements.
