This is from a technical text on research results.
Per alcune proporzioni sono stati calcolati i relativi intervalli di confidenza al 95% approssimati alla normale.
So far I have this but I can't figure out how to say the rest:
For some proportions the respective confidence intervals were calculated....
Any ideas how to say this?
Thank you in advance!

approximated to the normal distribution
Its a long time since I studied statistics, but normal distributions never change.

as approximated by the Normal / rounded normally
Or "as approximated by those of the Normal (distribution)"
It's not clear exactly what they are doing but most likely they are calculating confidence intervals for the sampling distribution of a proportion. That's done by starting from the confidence intervals of a normal distribution and (if necessary) making a correction to them.
"rounded normally" keeps more options open which is usually OK since it will be clear from the context what the process is.
