Epsilon shrinkage and IWRES
Dear all,
Can someone enlighten me on a NONMEM implementation?
Since NONMEM 7, epsilon shrinkage is reported in the output, and the manual
states that it is calculated as:
100%*[1-SD(IWRES)]
in accordance with "Karlsson MO and Savic RM. Diagnosing Model Diagnostics.
Clinical Pharmacology and Therapeutics, 2007; 82(1): 17-20" as one would
expect.
However, as far as I know, the user needs to manually code the IWRES bit
using the "Uppsala implementation":
IPRED = F
IRES = DV - IPRED
W = THETA(3)
IWRES = IRES/W
Y = IPRED+W*EPS(1)
SIGMA 1 FIXED
So how does NONMEM arrive at epsilon shrinkage? And is there by any chance
an (undocumented?) IWRES item that can be exported in a table file as well?
Kind regards,
Rik
