Similarly, we also note marginally statistically significant differences after PSM in DMFS ( P = 0.048), DFS ( P = 0.048), and OS ( P = 0.025) favoring the MA-NSM group.

marginally significantno p-value reported

In Kaplan–Meier survival curve analysis, there was no difference in recurrence-free survival ( P = 0.17); however, metastasis-free ( P = 0.048), disease-free ( P = 0.048), and OS curves ( P = 0.025) showed a marginally significant difference between the two groups after PSM and favoring the MA-NSM group.
