We offer an approximation to central confidence intervals for directly standardized rates, where we assume that the rates are distributed as a weighted sum of independent Poisson random variables. Like a recent method proposed by Dobson, Kuulasmaa, Eberle and Scherer, our method gives exact interval

We examine bootstrap approaches to the analysis of the sensitivity of quantitative diagnostic test data. Methods exist for inference concerning the sensitivity of one or more tests for "xed levels of speci"city, taking into account the variability in the sensitivity due to variability in the test va
