ChowHall2008 Dynamics of Human Weight Change_ODE_1

ABSTRACT: This ODE model is a representation of the two compartment macronutrient partition model that Chow and Hall outlined in their 2008 publication. It is one of three models that they outlined in that publication. The model was constructed by a team of five as part of a Workshop on Modelling conducted at Indian Institute of Technology Madras by the EBI.

The dynamics of human body weight change.

Chow Carson C CC Hall Kevin D KD

PLoS computational biology 20080328 3

An imbalance between energy intake and energy expenditure will lead to a change in body weight (mass) and body composition (fat and lean masses). A quantitative understanding of the processes involved, which currently remains lacking, will be useful in determining the etiology and treatment of obesity and other conditions resulting from prolonged energy imbalance. Here, we show that a mathematical model of the macronutrient flux balances can capture the long-term dynamics of human weight change; ...[more]

Project description:Basic PBPK (Physiologically Based PharmacoKinetic) model of Acetaminophen. This is a basic model of Acetaminophen (APAP, Paracetamol) pharmacokinetics in humans. Many of the model parameters (compartment volumes, volumetric flow rates, etc.) are scaled allometrically based on the body weight (BW) raised to the 3/4 power. Because of that, the assigned values of many of the parameters are recalculated at run time and are different than the default values for the particular entity (e.g., the volume of a compartment and the volumetric flow rate between compartments). APAP dose is initially given in grams (APAP_Dose_gram), which is converted to moles via the APAP molecular weight (APAP_MW). APAP quantities throughout the rest of the models are given in moles. The base parameters are for a 70Kg human and a pharmacological oral dose of 1.4 gram of APAP. Metabolism is modelled as a single ODE in the liver compartment and the metabolite does not leave that compartment. This model is loosely based on the model of Wambaugh and Shaw (PLoS Comput Biol. 2010 Apr 22;6(4):e1000756. doi: 10.1371/journal.pcbi.1000756. Pubmed ID: PMID- 20421935) with the following changes: The lung lumen compartment was omitted. A kidney compartment was added. Glomerular Filtration is from the kidney compartment. The APAP dose was changed to 1.4g. The gut adsorption rate constant (KGutabs), tissue partition coefficients and liver metabolism rate constant (CLmetabolism) were fit using the human in vivo data of Critchley (Critchley, J. A., Critchley, L. A. H., Anderson, P. J., and Tomlinson, B. 2005 Journal of clinical pharmacy and therapeutics, 30(2), 179-184). To model the extensive re-adsorption of APAP from the kidney tubules back into the blood the QGfr value is modified. This was done by changing the scaling parameter QGFR_ref value from 0.31 to 0.039, resulting in a decrease in the QGfr value of 8 fold (from 7.2 L/hr to 0.91 L/hr). The parameters in this file are the REFSIM parameters from our publication.
