English term or phrase: back calculated geometric mean
Hi again,
Same medication brochure. I know that "calculated geometric mean" is "media geométrica calculada". I just don't understand the meaning of "back" in that sentence.

The sentence reads: Under fasted conditions, the back calculated geometric mean of XXXXX peak plasma concentrations .....

Thanks a lot for your help.

media geométrica deducida / obtenida (Ver explicación)
Explanation:
"back-calculate" significa deducir a partir de un resultado. O sea: que esta media geométrica no se calculó a partir de datos de máxima concentración de plasma y aplicando la fórmula de media geométrica, sino a partir de otros datos disponibles que dependen de esta media geométrica y permitían calcularla.

... leyendo el resto de la historia tal vez puedas confirmar si es así.
