Estimates what the process is capable of producing, considering that the process mean may not be centered between the specification limits. (If the process mean is not centered, ^ overestimates process capability.) ^ < if the process mean falls outside of the specification limits. Assumes process output is approximately normally distributed.
Statistical process control defines techniques to properly differentiate between stable processes, processes that are drifting (experiencing a long-term change in the mean of the output), and processes that are growing more variable. Process capability indices are only meaningful for processes that are stable (in a state of statistical control).
Consider a quality characteristic with a target of 100.00 μm and upper and lower specification limits of 106.00 μm and 94.00 μm, respectively. If, after carefully monitoring the process for a while, it appears that the process is out of control and producing output unpredictably (as depicted in the run chart below), one can't meaningfully estimate its mean and standard deviation.
The AST/ALT ratio increases in liver functional impairment. In alcoholic liver disease, the mean ratio is 1.45, and mean ratio is 1.33 in post necrotic liver cirrhosis. Ratio is greater than 1.17 in viral cirrhosis, greater than 2.0 in alcoholic hepatitis, and 0.9 in non-alcoholic hepatitis.
A 95% confidence level does not mean that 95% of the sample data lie within the confidence interval. A 95% confidence level does not mean that there is a 95% probability of the parameter estimate from a repeat of the experiment falling within the confidence interval computed from a given experiment.

Free online p-values calculators for various specific tests (chi-square, Fisher's F-test, etc.). Understanding p -values , including a Java applet that illustrates how the numerical values of p -values can give quite misleading impressions about the truth or falsity of the hypothesis under test.
V d is the volume of distribution (L); typically body weight (kg) multiplied by 0.71 L/kg for men and 0.58 L/kg for women [32] [33] although estimation using TBW is more accurate. [34] A standard drink, defined by the WHO as 10 grams of pure alcohol, [35] is the most frequently used measure in many countries. Examples: A 80 kg man drinks 20 ...
In the United States, the mean age at first marriage is about 32 for men and about 30.8 for women, putting the average age at first marriage at about 31.4 for both genders. However, in India, it is even lower, at about 30 for men and about 27.2 for women, putting the average age at first marriage at about 28.6 for both genders. [citation needed]
