A battery-operated biomedical wearable device gradually assists in clinical tasks to monitor patients' health states regarding early diagnosis and detection. This paper presents the development of a self-powered portable electronic module by integrating an onboard energy-harvesting facility for electrocardiogram (ECG) signal processing and personalized health monitoring. The developed electronic module provides a customizable approach to power the device using a lithium-ion battery, a series of silicon photodiode arrays, and a solar panel.

Diabetes, a significant global health crisis, is primarily driven in India by unhealthy diets and sedentary lifestyles, with rapid urbanization amplifying these effects through convenience-oriented living and limited physical activity opportunities, underscoring the need for advanced preventative strategies and technology for effective management. This study integrates Shapley Additive explanations (SHAPs) into ensemble machine learning models to improve the accuracy and efficiency of diabetes predictions. By identifying the most influential features using SHAP, this study examined their role in maintaining high predictive performance while minimizing computational demands.
