Here we illustrate the varying one covariate at a time approach, keeping all the others at the reference value or category. A two-compartment pharmacokinetic (PK) model defined with ordinary differential equations (ODEs) is used. Covariates Weight, Albumin and Sex had effects on the Clearance (CL) model parameter while Weight and Sex had effects on the Volume of distribution (V) model parameter. For simplicity, there were no included covariates effects on other PK parameters such as peripheral clearance or volume. The approach is general and can be easily extended to any other ODEs model with multiple covariate effects on multiple model parameters.

### Simulate a Reference Subjects with BSV
We simulate the reference subject having the reference covariate values defined in the model which are:  
Weight = 85 kg, Sex = Female and Albumin = 45 g/L.
We also keep the between subject variability (BSV) to illustrate its effects on the concentration-time profiles on linear and log linear scales.

```{r pksimulation, fig.width=7, message=FALSE }
idata <- data.table(ID=1:nbsvsubjects, WT=85, SEX=0, ALB=45)

ev1 <- ev(time = 0, amt = 100, cmt = 1)
data.dose <- ev(ev1)
data.dose <- setDT(as.data.frame(data.dose))
data.all <- data.table(idata, data.dose)

outputsim <- modcovsim %>%
  data_set(data.all) %>%
  mrgsim(end = 24, delta = 0.25) %>%
  as.data.frame %>%
  as.data.table

outputsim$SEX <- factor(outputsim$SEX, labels="Female")

# Only plot a random sample of N=500

### Compute PK Parameters, Plot and Summarize BSV
In this section we compute the PK parameters of interest, provide a plot of the parameters as well as of the standardized ones. We also summarize and report the BSV as ranges of 50 and 90% of patients for each PK parameter. Later on we might choose to include these ranges in the `coveffectsplot` or not.

```{r computenca, fig.width=7 , message=FALSE }

## Generate and Simulate at Combinations of Covariate of Interest
Based on our observed covariate data, we compute percentiles of interest that we will use to simulate data at. Common practice is to compute the 5,25,75,95 percentiles (the median being the reference). In some cases, we might want to explore the min, max or other extreme case scenarios. Care should be taken as this approach might generate unrealistic combination of covariates that can never appear in a real patient. The utility function expand.modelframe (written by Benjamin Rich) is defined in the setup section of the vignette and can be found in the source code. It facilitates the creation of a set of covariate values varying one at a time. 

### Generate a Dataset Holding Combinations of Covariates:
```{r covcomb , fig.width=7 }
reference.values <- data.frame(WT = 85, ALB = 45, SEX = 0)   

covcomb <- expand.modelframe( #defined at the top and now expand_modelframe was added
  WT  = c(56, 72, 98, 128), # P05, P25, P50, P75, P95
  ALB = c(40, 50),          # P05, P50, P95
  SEX = c(1),               # Reference is for SEX=0 (female)
  rv = reference.values)

# Add the reference
covcomb <- rbind(covcomb, data.table(reference.values, covname="REF"))

covcomb$ID <- 1:nrow(covcomb)

covcomb
```

### Simulation at Unique Combinations of Covariates
As a first step, we simulate without uncertainty and without BSV using `zero_re()` at unique combination of covariates and provide a plot to visualize the effects.  

```{r, fig.width=8.5, fig.height=7, ,message=FALSE}
idata <- data.table::copy(covcomb)
idata$covname <-  NULL
ev1 <- ev(time=0, amt=100, cmt=1)
data.dose <- as.data.frame(ev1)
data.all <- data.table(idata, data.dose)

outcovcomb<- modcovsim %>%
  data_set(data.all) %>%
  zero_re() %>% 
  mrgsim(end=24, delta=0.25) %>%
  as.data.frame %>%
  as.data.table

outcovcomb$SEX <- factor(outcovcomb$SEX, labels=c("Female", "Male"))

albumin.labs <- c("albumin: 40 ng/mL","albumin: 45 ng/mL","albumin: 50 ng/mL")
names(albumin.labs) <- c("40","45","50")
wt.labs <- c("weight: 56 kg","weight: 72 kg","weight: 85 kg","weight: 98 kg","weight: 128 kg")
names(wt.labs) <- c("56","72","85","98","128")

pkprofiletypical <- ggplot(outcovcomb, aes(x=time, y=CP, col=factor(WT), linetype=SEX)) +
  geom_line(aes(group=ID), alpha = 1, linewidth = 1) +
  facet_nested(ALB + SEX ~ WT,
               labeller= labeller(ALB = albumin.labs, WT = wt.labs, SEX = label_value),
             switch = "y") +
  labs(
    x        = "Time (h)",
    y        = "Plasma Concentrations",
    linetype = "Sex",
    colour   = "Weight",
    caption  = "Simulation without Uncertainty and without BSV") +
  coord_cartesian(ylim=c(0,4))

pkprofiletypical <- pkprofiletypical +theme_bw(base_size = 13)+
  theme(axis.title.y = element_text(size=15))+
  guides(colour   = guide_legend(override.aes = list(alpha = 1, linewidth = 1)),
         linetype = guide_legend(override.aes = list(linewidth = 1), order = 1))+
  coord_cartesian(ylim=c(0,4))
pkprofiletypical

```

## Adding Uncertainty from a Varcov Matrix
First, we will invent a varcov matrix by assuming 25% relative standard errors and correlations of 0.2 across the board. We then simulate a 100 set of parameters using a multivariate normal (kept at 100 for the vignette, use more replicates for a real project). Also, unless the model was written in a way to allow unconstrained parameter values, care should be taken to make sure the simulated parameters are valid and make sense. In a real modeling applications, the software used to fit the model will provide a variance covariance matrix, if possible. Otherwise, the user can rely on set of parameters generated from bootstrap replicates or SIR run.   

**Variance Covariance Matrix of fixed effects:**
```{r, fig.width=7}
theta <- unclass(as.list(param(modcovsim)))
theta[c("WT", "SEX", "ALB")] <- NULL
theta <- unlist(theta)
as.data.frame(t(theta))

#note that from RsNLME or NONMEM or Monolix the software will give you the varcov just read it it in.
# example NONMEM  read in your run .cov
# varcov <- read.csv(paste("runxyz",".cov",sep=""), header=TRUE, skip=1, sep="")

varcov <- cor2cov(
  matrix(0.2, nrow=length(theta), ncol=length(theta)),
  sd=theta*0.25)
rownames(varcov) <- colnames(varcov) <- names(theta)
as.data.frame(varcov)
```

### Generating Sets of Parameters with Uncertainty
Second, we generate the sim_parameters dataset using `mvrnorm` and then incorporate the uncertainty by simulating using a different set of parameters (row) for each replicate.

**First Few Rows of a Dataset Containing Simulated Fixed Effects with Uncertainty:**
```{r, fig.width=7}
set.seed(678549)
# mvtnorm::rmvnorm is another option that can be explored
# if you have run a bootstrap just use the parameters data generated using all replicates
sim_parameters <- MASS::mvrnorm(nsim, theta, varcov, empirical=T) %>% as.data.table
head(sim_parameters)
```

### Iterative Simulations to Apply the Uncertainty
Third, we illustrate how you can iterate over a set of parameters value using a `for` loop. We then overlay the previous simulation results without uncertainty on the one with uncertainty to visualize the effect of adding it. 

```{r, fig.width=8.5, fig.height=7, ,message=FALSE}
idata <- data.table::copy(covcomb)
idata$covname <-  NULL
ev1       <- ev(time=0, amt=100, cmt=1)
data.dose <- as.data.frame(ev1)
iter_sims <- NULL
for(i in 1:nsim) {
  data.all  <- data.table(idata, data.dose, sim_parameters[i])
  out <- modcovsim %>%
    data_set(data.all) %>%
    zero_re() %>% 
    mrgsim(start=0, end=24, delta=0.25) %>%
    as.data.frame %>%
    as.data.table
  out[, rep := i]
  iter_sims <- rbind(iter_sims, out)
}
iter_sims$SEX <- factor(iter_sims$SEX, labels = c("Female", "Male"))


summary_conc <- function(CP) {
  x <- c(
    Cmed = median(CP),
    Clow = quantile(CP, probs = 0.05),
    Cup =  quantile(CP, probs = 0.95)
  )
  data.table(paramname=names(x), paramvalue=x)
}

iter_sims_sum <- iter_sims[, summary_conc(CP), by=.( time, WT, SEX, ALB)]
iter_sims_sum <- spread(iter_sims_sum,paramname,paramvalue)
iter_sims_sum <- as.data.frame(iter_sims_sum)

albumin.labs <- c("albumin: 40 ng/mL","albumin: 45 ng/mL","albumin: 50 ng/mL")
names(albumin.labs) <- c("40","45","50")
wt.labs <- c("weight: 56 kg","weight: 72 kg","weight: 85 kg","weight: 98 kg","weight: 128 kg")
names(wt.labs) <- c("56","72","85","98","128")

pkprofileuncertainty_sum <- ggplot(iter_sims_sum, aes(x=time, col=factor(WT),
                      fill=factor(WT),
                      linetype=SEX)) +
  geom_ribbon((aes(ymin= `Clow.5%` ,ymax=`Cup.95%`)), alpha = 0.4, linetype = 0)+
  geom_line(aes(y=Cmed),alpha=1 , color ="black" , linewidth = 1)+
  facet_nested(ALB +SEX ~ WT,
             labeller= labeller(ALB = albumin.labs,
                                WT = wt.labs,
                                SEX = label_value),switch = "y") +
  labs(
    x        = "Time (h)",
    y        = "Plasma Concentrations",
    linetype = "Sex",
    colour   = "Uncertainty\n5-95%\nWeight",
    fill   = "Uncertainty\n5-95%\nWeight",
    caption  = "Simulation with Uncertainty, without BSV") +
  theme_bw(base_size = 13)+
  theme(axis.title.y = element_text(size=15))+
  guides(fill     = guide_legend(override.aes = list(alpha = 0.4, size = 0.4)),
         linetype = guide_legend(override.aes = list(linewidth = 1), order = 1))+
  coord_cartesian(ylim=c(0,4))

pkprofileuncertainty_sum

```

### Compute PK Parameters and Boxplots   
Similar to an earlier section, we compute the PK parameters by patient and by replicate standardize by the computed median for reference subject and provide a plot. We add some data manipulation to construct more informative labels that will help in the plotting.

```{r, fig.width=7, include=TRUE, message=FALSE}
out.df.univariatecov.nca <- iter_sims[, derive.exposure(time, CP), by=.(rep, ID, WT, SEX, ALB)]

refvalues <- out.df.univariatecov.nca[
  ALB==45 & WT==85 & SEX=="Female",
  .(medparam = median(paramvalue)), by= .(rep,paramname) ]
head(data.frame(refvalues))

```

**Median Parameter Values for the Reference:**
```{r, fig.width=7,fig.height=5 ,message=FALSE}
covcomb$covvalue[covcomb$covname=="WT"] <- paste(covcomb$WT[covcomb$covname=="WT"],"kg")
covcomb$covvalue[covcomb$covname=="ALB"] <- paste(covcomb$ALB[covcomb$covname=="ALB"],"g/L")                   
covcomb$covvalue[covcomb$covname=="SEX"] <- "Male"
covcomb$covvalue[covcomb$covname=="REF"] <- "85 kg\nFemale\n45 g/L"
#covcomb[covname=="REF", covvalue := "85 kg Female 45 g/L"]
covcomb <- as.data.table(covcomb)

out.df.univariatecov.nca <- merge(
  out.df.univariatecov.nca,

)

setkey(out.df.univariatecov.nca, paramname,rep)

boxplotdat[paramname=="Clast", paramname2 := "C[last]"]
boxplotdat[paramname=="Cmax",  paramname2 := "C[max]"]

boxplotdat[, covname2 := factor(covname2, levels=unique(covname2))]
#boxplotdat[, covvalue := factor(covvalue, levels=unique(covvalue))]
boxplotdat[, covvalue := factor(covvalue,
  levels=c("56 kg", "72 kg", "40 g/L", "Male", "85 kg\nFemale\n45 g/L", "98 kg", "128 kg", "50 g/L"))]

## Alternative View of the Data: Distributions and Intervals 
Here we provide an alternative visual summary of the standardized PK parameters. It shows the distribution, quantiles of interest. It isolates each covariate effects in one panel keeping the reference on its own. It is exactly the same data as the boxplots. Which visual presentation do you prefer?

## Adding the BSV Ranges and Putting it all Together Using `forest_plot`
To contrast the covariate effects with random unexplained variability we add to the data the BSV intervals computed in an earlier section. We then do some data manipulation and formatting to produce a plot from the package function `forest_plot`. To simplify we will only keep AUC before revisiting more than one parameter plots at the end. The user can also compute an show the BSV for all presented effects not just for the reference. Refer to the approach that incorporate BSV and full covariate distributions presented in another vignette.

## Customization of the Plots
In this section, we first show a `forest_plot` built-in theme, then how you return the ggplot objects as a list for further editing using regular 'ggplot2' code.

### Using `theme_benrich` along Additional Options
This is achieved by setting `theme_benrich = TRUE`, specifying that you want no legend `legend_position = "none"`.  
With this theme active you can also control the `table_title` text and `table_title_size` arguments.

```{r,message=FALSE,fig.width=7}
png("./coveffectsplot4.png",width =9 ,height = 6,units = "in",res=72)

                            ref_area = c(0.8, 1/0.8),
                            x_range = c(0.5,2),
                            xlabel = "Fold Change Relative to Reference",
                            x_label_text_size= 10,
                            y_facet_text_angle     = 0,
                            facet_formula = "covname~paramname",
                            theme_benrich = TRUE,
                            table_title_size = 15,
                            table_title = "Median [90% CI]",
                            interval_legend_text = interval_legend_text,
                            interval_bsv_text = interval_bsv_text,
                            legend_position = "none",
                            strip_placement = "outside",
                            base_size = 12,

                            table_text_size=4,
                            plot_table_ratio = 3,
                            show_table_facet_strip = "none",
                            logxscale = TRUE,
                            major_x_ticks =    c(0.25,0.5,0.8,1,1/0.8,1/0.5,1/0.25),

                            return_list = FALSE)
dev.off()
```

### Returning a List of ggplots
You can get the underlying ggplots as a list for further editing by setting `return_list = TRUE` and saving it into an object. The list will contain two objects the first being the main plot and the second the table. We illustrate how you can modify the look of the plots using regular ggplot code that modify the facet text color to `gray` and italic. Finally we recombine the plots using `egg::ggarrange`.

```{r,message=FALSE,fig.width=7}

## Plots with Multiple PK Parameters
You can also have plots with more than one PK parameter. You may want to facet by parameter, or to use different shape by parameter.

### Facet by Parameter
This is achieved by setting `paramname_shape = FALSE` and `facet_formula = "covname~paramname"`. We also suppress the table by using `table_position = "none"` and reduce the plot text sizes using `base_size = 11`.

```{r, fig.width=7, fig.height=6,message=FALSE}

                            facet_formula = "covname~paramname",
                            interval_legend_text = interval_legend_text,
                            interval_bsv_text = interval_bsv_text,
                            facet_switch = "y",
                            facet_scales = "free_y",

### Color by Parameter
This is achieved by setting `paramname_color = TRUE` (on top of `paramname_shape = TRUE` or not) and the the user can then pass a vector of colors in the `interval_col` argument

While we covered varying one at a time covariate value (marginal effects), we can use observed or simulated distribution of correlated covariates and simulate joint covariate effects as illustrated in the Pediatric Application vignette.It can be misleading to show the BSV around the reference only as it operates at all levels of covariate as such we recommend to fully represent the intervals with BSV and Uncertainty at all levels / covariate splits (full Distribution PK example vignette.)
