Population pharmacokinetic parameter estimates from a nonlinear mixed-effect model for midazolam, diclofenac, dextromethorphan, and chlorzoxazone

CL, clearance; V1, central compartment of distribution; Q, intercompartment clearance; V2, peripheral compartment of distribution; CAG, CA categorical covariate (0 = sham, 1 = CA); TEMG, temperature categorical covariate (0 = normothermia, 1 = hypothermia); ω2, interindividual variability; σ2, residual error; OFV, objective function value; covariate θ5, effect of the first significant covariate on the specific PK parameters (CA for midazolam and chlorzoxazone and temperature for dextromethorphan and diclofenac); covariate θ6, effect of the second significant covariate found on specific PK parameters (temperature for midazolam and chlorzoxazone).
