  1. Alternative statistical modeling of Pharmacokinetics and Pharmacodynamics A collaboration between Aalborg University and Novo Nordisk A/S Claus DethlefsenCenter for Cardiovascular Research

  3. Four different backgrounds State Space Models Inverse Problems Bayesian Networks Graphical Models PK/PD

  4. Learning Bayesian Networks Susanne Bøttcher and Claus Dethlefsen

  5. Bayesian Networks • A Directed Acyclic Graph (DAG) • To each node with parents there is attached a local conditional probability distribution, • Lack of edges in corresponds to conditional independencies, • Joint distribution

  6. Conditional Gaussian Distribution • Observations of discrete variables multinomial distributed • Continuous variables are Gaussian linear regressions on the continuous parents, with parameters depending on the configuration of the discrete parents. (ANCOVA) • No continuous parents of discrete nodes • Jointly a Conditional Gaussian (CG) distribution

  7. Advantages using Bayesian networks • Qualitative representation of causal relations • Compact description of the assumed independence relations among the variables • Prior information is combined with data in the learning process • Observations at all nodes are not needed for inference (calculation of distribution of unobserved given observed)

  8. Software • Hugin: www.hugin.comPrediction in Bayesian networks • R: Free software www.r-project.orgStatistical software • Deal: Package for R (documented) on CRANLearning of parameters and structure.Developed by Claus Dethlefsen and Susanne Bøttcher

  9. Why Deal ? • No other software learns Bayesian networks with mixed variables !

  11. Prediction of Insulin Sensitivity Index using Bayesian Networks Susanne Bøttcher and Claus Dethlefsen

  12. Insulin Sensitivity Index • Insulin Sensitivity Index ( ) measures the fractional increase in glucose clearance rate during an IVGTT (Intraveneous Glucose Tolerance Test) • A low is associated with risk of developing type 2 diabetes

  13. Aim • Estimate insulin sensitivity index based on measurements of plasma glucose and serum insulin levels during an OGTT (Oral Glucose Tolerance Test) in individuals with normal glucose tolerance

  14. Methods • 187 subjects without recognised diabetes • IVGTT determines insulin sensitivity index • OGTT with measurements of plasma glucose and serum insulin levels at time points 0, 30, 60, 105, 180, 240 • Use 140 subjects as training data and 47 subjects as validation data

  15. Previous study Hansen et al used a multiple regression analysis Log(S.I) ~ BMI + SEX + G0 + I0 + G30 + I30 + G60 + I60 + G105 + I105 + G180 + I180 + G240 + I240
