Nonlinear mixed-effects HIV dynamic models with considering left-censored measurements
HIV dynamic model offers a different perspective of studying HIV pathogenesis and developing treatment strategies for AIDS patients. Many HIV dynamic models have recently been developed to characterize short-term AIDS treatment, whereas in long-term HIV dynamics, viral load often rebounds in the later stage of treatment primarily due to reduced drug efficacy. Although time-varying drug efficacy...
متن کاملLinear and nonlinear mixed-effects models for censored HIV viral loads using normal/independent distributions.
HIV RNA viral load measures are often subjected to some upper and lower detection limits depending on the quantification assays. Hence, the responses are either left or right censored. Linear (and nonlinear) mixed-effects models (with modifications to accommodate censoring) are routinely used to analyze this type of data and are based on normality assumptions for the random terms. However, thos...
متن کاملMixed effects models with censored data with application to HIV RNA levels.
Mixed effects models are often used for estimating fixed effects and variance components in longitudinal studies of continuous data. When the outcome being modelled is a laboratory measurement, however, it may be subject to lower and upper detection limits (i.e., censoring). In this paper, the usual EM estimation procedure for mixed effects models is modified to account for left and/or right ce...
متن کاملEfficient hybrid EM for linear and nonlinear mixed effects models with censored response
Medical laboratory data are often censored, due to limitations of the measuring technology. For pharmacokinetics measurements and dilution-based assays, for example, there is a lower quantification limit, which depends on the type of assay used. The concentration of HIV particles in the plasma is subject to both lower and upper quantification limit. Linear and nonlinear mixed effects models, wh...
متن کاملInfluence diagnostics in linear and nonlinear mixed-effects models with censored data
HIV RNA viral load measures are often subjected to some upper and lower detection limits depending on the quantification assays, and consequently the responses are either left or right censored. Linear and nonlinear mixed-effects models with modifications to accommodate censoring (LMEC and NLMEC) are routinely used to analyze this type of data. Recently, Vaida and Liu (2009) proposed an exact E...
