| Abstract | A model was developed that characterized the maturation and growth of the renal function parameters (RFPs) glomerular filtration rate (GF), active tubular secretion (AS), and renal plasma flow (Q$_{R}$). Published RFP values were obtained from 63 healthy children between the ages of 2 days and 12 years. Maturation over time was assumed to be exponential from an immature (RFP$_{im}$) to a mature (RFP$_{ma}$) level; for growth, RFP$_{im}$ and RFP$_{ma}$ were assumed to follow the allometric equation: RFP(age, W)=aW$^{b}$e$^{−kmat}$ $^{*}$age+cW$^{b}$(1−e$^{−kmat}$ $^{*}$age), where W is body weight, k$_{mat}$ is the maturation rate constant, b is the body weight exponent, and a and c are RFP$_{im}$ and RFP$_{ma}$ at unit W. The model-based equation was fitted to the age-W, RFP values by a nonlinear least-squares method. For GF, the maturation half-life was 7.9 months (90% maturation, 26 months), the body weight exponent was 0.662, and the ratio c/a (which reflected the magnitude of the maturation influence) was 3.1. For AS and Q$_{R}$, the maturation half-lives were about 3.8 months and the ratio c/a was about 1.8. For renally eliminated drugs, the model can be used to estimate dosing regimens that are based on the adult dosing regimen and the age and weight of the child. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
