In this vignette we illustrate how to study the effects of covariates in a pediatric population between 2 to 6 years old. Since Age and Weight in kids are highly correlated, we will not simulate varying one covariate at a time rather we will incorporate a **distribution** of realistic Age/Weight pairs.

## Specifying A Pediatric Simulation Model
Here we have a simple one-compartment PK model with first-order absorption where clearance and volume are allometrically scaled. The reference subject is a 4 year old female with a weight of 15.9 kg.  
* First we plot a typical PK profile with between subject variability (BSV).

```{r pedpkmodel, collapse=TRUE }
pedpkmodelcov <- '
$PARAM @annotated
KA    : 0.5   : Absorption rate constant Ka (1/h)
CL    : 4     : Clearance CL (L/h)
V     : 10    : Central volume Vc (L)
CLWT  : 0.75  : Weight on CL (ref. 22.5 kg)
VWT   : 1     : Weight on V (ref. 22.5 kg)

$PARAM @annotated // reference values for covariate
WT    : 15.8  : Weight (kg)
SEX   : 0     : Sex (0=Female, 1=Male)
AGE   : 4     : Age (years)

$CMT GUT CENT

double CLi = CL *
    pow((WT/15.8), CLWT)*exp(ETA(1)); 
double Vi = V *
    pow((WT/15.8), VWT)*exp(ETA(2));  

double KAi = KA;
double Keli = CLi/Vi;

```

## PK Parameters and Associated BSV ranges
* Second we compute the PK parameters AUC and Cmax, standardize and compute between subject variability ranges.

```{r ncapedpkmodel, collapse=TRUE }
derive.exposure <- function(time, CP) {
  n <- length(time)
  x <- c(
    Cmax = max(CP),
    AUC = sum(diff(time) * (CP[-1] + CP[-n])) / 2
  )
  data.table(paramname=names(x), paramvalue=x)
}

refbsv[, stdparamvalue := paramvalue/median(paramvalue), by=list(SEX,paramname)]

## Simulating Age/Weight Pairs Using NHANES LMS Values
The NHANES website provides a csv file containing the smoothed growth charts distribution parameters at specific ages for boys and girls. The `gamlss.dist::rBCCG` function is used to show how we can use these parameters to generate a realistic pediatric Age/Weight/Sex distribution. 

```{r simcovariate, collapse=TRUE }
wtage <- read.csv (url("https://www.cdc.gov/growthcharts/data/zscore/wtage.csv"))
#boys 1 and girls 2 in this file
wtage<-  wtage[wtage$Agemos<=6*12,] # keeps only 2 to 6 years

wtage[wtage$Agemos>=4*12-1&wtage$Agemos<=4*12 +1,] %>%
  group_by(Sex) %>% 
  summarize(Median=median(M))

nweightsperage <- 50 # simulate 50 kid at each age/sex
simwtageoutput <- data.frame(matrix(NA, nrow = nrow(wtage),ncol = nweightsperage))
names(simwtageoutput) <- paste0("Var", 1:nweightsperage)
set.seed(209321)
for (i in 1:nrow(wtage)) {#
  simpoints <- gamlss.dist::rBCCG(nweightsperage,
                                  mu = wtage[i,"M"],
                                  sigma =  wtage[i,"S"],
                                  nu = wtage[i,"L"])
simwtageoutput[i, ] <- simpoints
}
simwtageoutput$Agemos  <- wtage$Agemos
simwtageoutput$AgeY  <- wtage$Agemos/12
simwtageoutput$Sex <- ifelse( wtage$Sex==2,0,1)#recode girls to 0, boys to 1

simwtageoutput <- tidyr::gather(simwtageoutput,age,Weight,
                                paste0("Var", 1:nweightsperage))
simwtageoutput$age <- NULL
simwtageoutput$SEXLABEL <- factor(simwtageoutput$Sex,labels=c("Girls","Boys"))
wtvsageplot<- ggplot(simwtageoutput,aes(AgeY,Weight,color=SEXLABEL))+
  geom_point(alpha=0.2,size=1.5)+
  facet_grid(~SEXLABEL)+
  labs(y="Weight (kg)", x= "Age (years)",col="")

```

## Simulation with the Multivariate Realistic Distribution
The section above generated 4900 Age/Weight/Sex distribution values that we will use for the simulation. We will remove the between subject variability to focus on the covariate effects. We show a plot of the PK profiles and the normalized PK parameters versus Age and versus Weight.
