    Abstract: The present invention is related to, among other things, the devices and methods that improve the accuracy and reliability of an assay, even when the assay device and/or the operation of the assay device has certain errors, and in some embodiments, the errors are random. One aspect of the present invention is to overcome the random errors or imperfections of an assay device or the operation of the assay device by measuring, in addition to measuring the analyte in a sample to generate an analyte test result, the trustworthiness of the analyte test result. The analyte test result will be reported, only when the trustworthiness meets a predetermined threshold, otherwise the analyte test result will be discarded. Various of parameter variation have been used for test trustworthy determination.

    Abstract: Disclosed is a method for correlating a biomarker in a non-blood bodily fluid with the same biomarker in the blood of an individual, including: measuring, in a first period in time, the biomarker in non-blood bodily fluid and measuring the same biomarker in the blood of the same individual to establish an R ratio of [NBBF1]/[BB1], where [NBBF1] is the biomarker concentration in non-blood bodily fluid in the first period in time, and [BB1] is the biomarker concentration in the blood in the first period in time; storing the ratio in a memory; measuring, in a second period in time, the biomarker in non-blood bodily fluid to determine [NBBF2], where [NBBF2] is the biomarker concentration in the non-blood bodily fluid in the second period in time; and correlating the measured [NBBF2] with the R ratio to generate a correlated [BB2] biomarker concentration in the blood of the individual in the second period in time. Also disclosed is a device, apparatus, and method for correlating the glucose concentration in a non-blood bodily fluid such as saliva with the glucose in the blood of an individual.
