  1. BSV, between-subject variability; CI, confidence interval; CLA, clearance of terlipressin; CLM/Fm, apparent clearance for L-VP; CV%, coefficient of variation; HRS, hepatorenal syndrome; L-VP, lysine-vasopressin PK, pharmacokinetic; QA, intercompartmental flow; RSE, relative standard error; V1A and V2A, volume of central compartment and peripheral compartment for terlipressin, respectively; VM/Fm, apparent volume of L-VP; WT, body weight
  2. aParameter precision (RSE%) is expressed as CV%
  3. b95% CI estimated from bootstrap of 1110 replicated samples
  4. cCLA = 27.4 * (WT/86)0.549
  5. dBSV was fixed as 0
