Monaghan et al. (6 ) in a Scottish population. Our study provides similar findings in an Italian population, without any differences between regional origins. Moreover, 7 of 16 subjects with the 7/7 genotype had STB within the reference interval. These data, in agreement with the recent study by Rudenski and Halsall (7 ), confirm that the Gilbert genotype is not always expressed. There is a nee...

Background. Reference values for the CD3(+), CD4(+), CD8(+), and CD4(+) to CD8(+) ratio T lymphocyte subsets are adopted from textbooks. But for appropriate diagnosis, treatment, and follow-up of patients, correct interpretations of the laboratory results from normal reference interval are mandatory. This study was, therefore, planned to establish normal reference interval for T lymphocytes sub...

Interval judgments are a way of handling preferential and informational uncertainty in multicriteria decision analysis. In this paper, we study the use of intervals in SMART and SWING weighting methods. We generalize the methods in three ways: (i) the reference attribute is allowed to be any attribute, not just the most or least important one, (ii) the decision maker can reply with intervals to...
