Sta-tens, flexible yardsticks of "normality," represent 10 areas (O-9) under a distribution curve. With the mode as the center, each side of the distribution curve is analyzed separately. The sta-ten essentially relabels a test result in a relevant manner presenting the information as a probability function. The 50% of values from the mode to the lower median represents sta-ten 4, and between the mode and the upper median sta-ten 5 (P = 1.0-0.5). Sta-tens 3 and 6 represent the area beyond the lower and upper medians which includes $ + + of the total observations (P = 0.4994X125). Sta-tens 2 and 7 beginning beyond sta-tens 3 and 6, respectively, comprise -I+ + +:-+ ,a of the observations (P = 0.1244X015); sta-tens 1 and 8, i&r + +& + & t -& of the observations beyond sta-ten 2 and 7 (P= 0.014-0.001). Values beyond sta-tens 1 and 8 are the extremes (statens 0 and 9 ; P = 0.0009-).
Sta-tens facilitate the computation, interpretation, and summation of laboratory test results; reduce (75%) the cost of data analysis, storage, and retrieval; and permit combining of diverse variables, different methodology, age, sex, and race.
