# Population

Hodiamont 2017 developed a population PK model from 59 critically ill
adults admitted to the mixed medical-surgical ICU of the Academic
Medical Center in Amsterdam between May-June 2013 and April-June 2014
(Hodiamont 2017 Table 1). Demographics: 30 male and 29 female,
mean age 60.9 +/- 17.2 years, mean total body weight 79.2 +/- 22.0 kg
(IBW 71.4 +/- 11.6, ABW 74.6 +/- 13.0). Cockcroft-Gault creatinine
clearance averaged 87.0 +/- 64.7 mL/min before the first dose and rose
to 99.7 +/- 59.3 and 133.0 +/- 85.6 before the second and third doses
respectively, indicating substantial within-patient variation in renal
function. Patients received 130 gentamicin administrations over 62
treatment episodes (mean 2.1 +/- 1.9 administrations per episode);
the protocol fixed the first dose at approximately 5 mg/kg total body
weight (mean 5.1 +/- 1.1 mg/kg) delivered as a 30 min IV infusion. Four
endocarditis episodes (3 mg/kg combined with a beta-lactam for synergy)
were included in the PK fit but excluded from the paper's primary
target-attainment analysis. A total of 416 blood samples were collected
across all episodes (44% routine TDM, 56% residual blood-gas waste
material).

The same information is available programmatically via
`readModelDb("Hodiamont_2017_gentamicin")$population`.

# Virtual cohort

The original observed concentrations are not publicly available. To
mirror the simulation scenarios reported by Hodiamont 2017 (Results
"Simulation of Cmax at Different Starting Doses"; Figure 5), the
vignette draws virtual cohorts of identical 70 kg patients and gives
each subject either a 5 mg/kg (350 mg) or a 6 mg/kg (420 mg) first dose
infused over 30 minutes. The paper used 1000 subjects per arm; the
vignette uses 300 per arm to stay inside the pkgdown build time budget
while keeping Monte Carlo noise below ~3 percentage points on each
target-attainment statistic.

## Figure 5 -- simulated first-dose Cmax distributions

Hodiamont 2017 Figure 5A and 5C show boxplots of simulated first-dose
gentamicin Cmax at 5 mg/kg and 6 mg/kg respectively (1000 patients per
arm, body weight 70 kg). The published median Cmax was 14.0 mg/L at
5 mg/kg and 16.8 mg/L at 6 mg/kg. Cmax in the paper is defined as the
serum concentration 30 minutes after the end of a 30 min infusion,
i.e. at 1 hour after the start of the infusion (Methods, "Analysis of
Gentamicin Cmax").

```{r figure-5}
cmax_at_1h <- sim |>
  dplyr::filter(abs(time - 1) < 1e-6) |>
  dplyr::select(id, regimen, Cmax = Cc)

  annotate("text", x = 0.6, y = 17.5, label = "Therapeutic\n15-20 mg/L",
           hjust = 0, size = 3, colour = "grey30") +

      " 70 kg patients per regimen. Dashed lines mark the 15-20 mg/L therapeutic range."
    )
  )
```

# PKNCA validation

Compute Cmax over the first dosing interval per subject with PKNCA.
Grouping is by `regimen`. (Hodiamont 2017 reports first-dose Cmax only;
there is no published AUC reference, but `auclast` is included for
completeness.)

```{r pknca}
sim_nca <- sim |>
  dplyr::filter(!is.na(Cc)) |>
  dplyr::select(id, time, Cc, regimen)

dose_df <- events |>
  dplyr::filter(evid == 1L) |>
  dplyr::select(id, time, amt, regimen)

conc_obj <- PKNCA::PKNCAconc(
  sim_nca, Cc ~ time | regimen + id,
  concu = "mg/L", timeu = "h"
)
dose_obj <- PKNCA::PKNCAdose(
  dose_df, amt ~ time | regimen + id,
  doseu = "mg"
)

intervals <- data.frame(
  start    = 0,
  end      = 24,
  cmax     = TRUE,
  tmax     = TRUE,
  auclast  = TRUE
)

nca_data <- PKNCA::PKNCAdata(conc_obj, dose_obj, intervals = intervals)
nca_res  <- PKNCA::pk.nca(nca_data)

res_tbl <- as.data.frame(nca_res$result)
```

## Comparison against Hodiamont 2017 simulation summaries

Hodiamont 2017 reports, for each starting-dose scenario, the median
Cmax and the percentage of patients whose Cmax falls within
(%Cther: 15-20 mg/L), below (%Csubther: < 15 mg/L), and above
(%Csuprather: > 20 mg/L) the therapeutic range. The chunk below
recomputes those statistics from the simulated Cmax-at-1-hour values
(matching the paper's Cmax definition) and renders them side-by-side
with the published values.

```{r table-comparison}
simulated <- cmax_at_1h |>
  dplyr::group_by(regimen) |>
  dplyr::summarise(
    median_Cmax_sim    = median(Cmax),
    pct_in_target_sim  = mean(Cmax >= 15 & Cmax <= 20) * 100,
    pct_subther_sim    = mean(Cmax <  15)              * 100,
    pct_suprather_sim  = mean(Cmax >  20)              * 100,
    .groups = "drop"
  )

published <- tibble::tribble(
  ~regimen,   ~median_Cmax_pub, ~pct_in_target_pub, ~pct_subther_pub, ~pct_suprather_pub,
  "5 mg/kg",  14.0,             27.7,                58.6,             13.7,
  "6 mg/kg",  16.8,             33.5,                35.6,             30.9
)

comparison <- published |>
  dplyr::left_join(simulated, by = "regimen") |>
  dplyr::select(regimen,
                median_Cmax_pub,    median_Cmax_sim,
                pct_in_target_pub,  pct_in_target_sim,
                pct_subther_pub,    pct_subther_sim,
                pct_suprather_pub,  pct_suprather_sim)

knitr::kable(
  comparison,
  digits  = 1,
  caption = paste("Comparison of simulated first-dose Cmax statistics with",
                  "Hodiamont 2017 Results 'Simulation of Cmax at Different",
                  "Starting Doses'. The 'pub' columns are the published values",
                  "(1000 patients per arm); the 'sim' columns come from the",
                  paste0("packaged model with n = ", n_subjects,
                         " 70 kg patients per arm."))
)
```

The simulated median Cmax and target-attainment percentages should
track the published values within Monte Carlo noise (the paper used
1000 patients per arm versus 300 here). Sizeable IIV on V1 (27%) and
on CL (75%) drives the wide spread; the simulated medians sitting
near the centre of the published values is the primary check that the
typical-value structural parameters and the IIV omegas were translated
correctly. The PKNCA `cmax` value over the full 0-24 h dosing interval
is also available in `res_tbl` for users who prefer the maximum-over-
interval definition; that value will be similar but is not identical
to the published "30 min after end of infusion" Cmax used in the
Hodiamont paper.

# Assumptions and deviations

- **Inter-occasion variability (IOV) not encoded.** Hodiamont 2017
  estimated IOV on both CL (24.0% CV) and V1 (25.1% CV); the IOV on V1
  is in fact the paper's central finding because it exceeded the
  arbitrary 15% cutoff below which the authors considered routine TDM
  effective. Following the precedent set by `Sikma_2020_tacrolimus*`
  and `Ting_2014_tobramycin_inhaled`, the packaged model omits the IOV
  terms because nlmixr2lib popPK extractions do not standardise IOV
  encoding (it requires an OCC variable in the dataset and a
  multiplexed per-occasion eta structure, cf. `Wilkins_2008_rifampicin`
  or `Vet_2016_midazolam`). Population-level statistics from
  simulations of a single dose (such as the first-dose Cmax
  distributions replicated above) are unaffected because IOV only acts
  across occasions within a subject. Users simulating multi-dose
  scenarios and interested in repeat-administration Cmax variability
  should add the IOV layer manually; in the source paper this was the
  main driver of why TDM after the first dose had limited utility.
- **Body-weight covariates absent.** Hodiamont 2017 tested TBW, IBW,
  and ABW on CL, Q, V1, and V2 using both allometric (with fixed
  exponents 0.75 / 1) and univariate forms and reported no significant
  OFV improvement (Results, "Model"). The packaged model therefore
  carries no covariate effects and `covariateData` is empty. Users
  applying this model to populations whose body-size distribution
  differs substantially from the source cohort (mean TBW 79 kg, range
  reported but not tabulated subject-by-subject) should interpret
  predictions with that limitation in mind.
- **Renal function, fluid balance, inotrope use not tested.** The paper
  states explicitly that these covariates were not evaluated; the goal
  was to quantify the total IOV that arises in routine TDM where only
  body weight is normally considered. The packaged model inherits this
  scope.
- **Endocarditis sub-cohort retained in fit.** Four treatment episodes
  for endocarditis were dosed at 3 mg/kg in combination with a
  beta-lactam and were retained in the PK fit but excluded from the
  paper's primary target-attainment analysis. The library model does
  not distinguish these episodes from the standard 5 mg/kg-protocol
  episodes.
- **Cmax definition.** The paper's Cmax is the concentration 30 minutes
  after the end of a 30 minute infusion (i.e. at 1 hour after the start
  of dosing). The comparison table uses that definition; the PKNCA
  `cmax` field over 0-24 h is similar but not identical.
- **Infusion duration set by the event table.** The source paper
  modelled a 30 minute IV infusion. The library model does not
  hard-code `dur(central)`, so users specify infusion duration per
  dose via the `rate` (or `dur`) column on the event-table dose rows;
  the vignette uses `rate = amt / 0.5` to deliver each dose over 30
  minutes.
- **Errata not searched.** The skill's pre-flight checklist asks for an
  errata search on the publisher landing page; for this 2017 article
  the search was not performed during extraction. If a subsequent
  erratum revises a Table 2 estimate, the packaged values should be
  refreshed accordingly.
