Diagnostic measurements involving paired organs may be modelled using marginal or conditional approaches. Relevant information could be ignored by using marginal models with a mean structure not including information from the fellow organ. The conditional Rosner model can be generalized to a symmetr

People experience physiological changes with age which may lead to changes in sensitivity to many kinds of exposure. In situations of prolonged, low level exposure, differences in the effects of exposures received at different ages may be diffıcult to evaluate, since study members receive low level
The efficiencies of estimates obtained from the direct linear plot (A. Cornish-Bowden and R. Eisenthal, 1978, Biochem. Biophys. Acta, 523, 268) are shown to be dependent on the spacing of substrate concentrations. When substrate values are harmonically spaced, the direct linear plot should not be us
