| Abstract | γ-Hydroxybutyric acid (GHB), a drug of abuse, demonstrates complex toxicokinetics with capacity-limited metabolism and active renal reabsorption. The objectives of the present study were to conduct a local sensitivity analysis of a mechanistic model for the active renal reabsorption of GHB and to use the results to inform the design of future studies aimed at developing therapeutic strategies for treating GHB overdoses. A local sensitivity analysis was used to assess the influence of parameter perturbations on model outputs (plasma concentrations and urinary excretion of GHB). Further, a sensitivity index was calculated for each perturbed parameter to assess the specific segments of the time course that are critical to parameter estimation. Model outputs were simulated for rats dosed with 200, 400, 600, and 1,000 mg/kg GHB intravenously and individual parameters were perturbed by two-, five-, and tenfold higher and lower than the nominal value. Model outputs were sensitive to perturbations in clearance and volume parameters. In contrast, model outputs were found to be insensitive to changes in distributional parameters suggesting that additional tissue distribution data is required. Based on the sensitivity analysis the 1,000-mg/kg GHB dose can be eliminated from future studies as the parameters can be adequately estimated from the lower doses. To further validate the use of this model, dose-specific sampling schedules were designed based on model predictions for doses of 600 and 1,500 mg/kg. These sampling schedules were able to adequately capture the inflection point and terminal elimination phase of the plasma concentration–time profiles obtained. |

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.
