Creates an individual using the PK-Sim Database.

Usage

createIndividualCharacteristics(
  species,
  population = NULL,
  gender = NULL,
  weight = NULL,
  weightUnit = "kg",
  height = NULL,
  heightUnit = "cm",
  age = NULL,
  ageUnit = "year(s)",
  gestationalAge = 40,
  gestationalAgeUnit = "week(s)",
  moleculeOntogenies = NULL,
  seed = NULL
)

Arguments

species: Species of the individual as defined in PK-Sim (see Species enum)
population: Population to use to create the individual. This is required only when the species is Human. (See HumanPopulation enum)
gender: Gender to use to create the individual. (See Gender enum)
weight: Weight of the created individual
weightUnit: Unit in which the weight value is defined. Default is kg
height: Height of the created individual (for human species only)
heightUnit: Unit in which the height value is defined. Default is cm
age: Age of the created individual (for human species only)
ageUnit: Unit in which the age value is defined. Default is year(s)
gestationalAge: Gestational age of the created individual (for human species only using the Preterm population). Default is 40 Weeks
gestationalAgeUnit: Unit in which the gestational age value is defined. Default is week(s)
moleculeOntogenies: Optional list of MoleculeOntogeny that will be used to retrieve ontogeny information for molecules.
seed: Optional seed parameter to use to generate start values for the created individual algorithm. A MoleculeOntogeny is an object with the name a molecule property (e.g the name of the molecule as defined in your simulation) and an ontogeny property (e.g. the name of the predefined ontogeny to use for this molecule). The list of all available ontogenies can be accessed programmatically using the enum StandardOntogeny

Value

An array of ParameterValue containing the value of each individual parameter
