This study reviews non-linear mixed-effects models for analyzing repeated measures in longitudinal studies. It compares estimation procedures and assesses the impact of random-effects model misspecification.

Area of Science:

  • Biostatistics
  • Pharmacokinetics
  • Longitudinal Data Analysis

Background:

  • Longitudinal studies are crucial in biomedical research, necessitating robust statistical models.
  • Linear and generalized linear models are common, but non-linear models are vital for complex data, especially in pharmacokinetics.
  • Analysis of repeated measures requires specialized modeling techniques.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To provide an overview of non-linear models for repeated measures analysis.
  • To emphasize mixed-effects non-linear models and their estimation procedures.
  • To evaluate the performance of different estimation methods and the impact of model misspecification.

Main Methods:

  • Overview of non-linear models for repeated measures.

  • Simulation studies to compare estimation procedures and assess model misspecification effects.

    • Main Results:

    • Several estimation procedures for mixed-effects non-linear models were compared using simulation.
    • The impact of incorrect random-effects specification was investigated.
    • A straightforward measure for selecting random effects was evaluated and showed reasonable performance.

    Conclusions:

    • Mixed-effects non-linear models are important for analyzing longitudinal and repeated measures data.
    • Careful consideration of random-effects structure is crucial to avoid model misspecification.
    • The proposed measure aids in selecting appropriate random effects for improved model accuracy.
