1. A method for assessing a level of an analyte within a mammal, wherein the method comprises:
- obtaining, by a computational device, electrocardiogram results from the mammal;
identifying one or more characteristics of the mammal, wherein the one or more characteristics include at least one characteristic identified independently of the electrocardiogram results from the mammal;
selecting, from among a plurality of electrocardiogram signal templates, a particular electrocardiogram signal template that corresponds to the one or more characteristics of the mammal, wherein each electrocardiogram signal template in the plurality of electrocardiogram signal templates;
(i) corresponds to a respective set of one or more mammalian characteristics, and(ii) associates a baseline electrocardiogram result with a baseline level of the analyte for the respective set of mammalian characteristics to which the electrocardiogram signal template corresponds; and
comparing the electrocardiogram results from the mammal to the baseline electrocardiogram result of the selected particular electrocardiogram signal template to obtain an indication of the level of the analyte in the mammal.
