After correcting for multiple comparisons, the results had a tendency toward statistical significance (adjusted- p < 0.10).
Excerpts
The alpha criterion level was set at 0.05 for all statistical analyses, but we also interpreted the effect of the difference as a statistical trend on level (0.05 < p < 0.1), which is recommended in the literature of biomedical sciences [ 82 ]. 3.
The selected covariates were the significative variables in the bivariant analysis (hypertension and triglycerides, dyslipidemia, Non-HDL-C, and statins/ezetimibe treatments were not included due to the high correlation with the triglycerides) or almost significant variables ( p < 0.1; age, SLE disease length).
PGG-treated 7.11 ± 1.13%, p = 0.0017) and approaching significance at the proximal location at day 28 (saline-treated 4.24 ± 1.01% vs. 6.64 ± 2.28%, p = 0.10; Figure 4 B).
a trend towards significancep < 0.1
A trend towards significance was observed for AVH distress ( p < 0.1).
close to significancep < 0.10
The sum of previous POP surgeries was entered into the calculated models because it was close to significance p < 0.10 ( Table 3 ).
close to significancep < 0.1
Finally, we used severe logistic regression models with different combinations of the variables that were statistically ( p < 0.05) significant or close to significance ( p < 0.1) in the univariate analysis to find out the factor that could correlate with the PDs.
Multivariate analysis was performed using the backward stepwise method after including all variables with significant or near-significant association ( p ≤ 0.10) at either log-rank or univariate analysis by Cox proportional hazard method.
showed a trendp -value of <0.1
Subsequently, a multivariate logistic regression model was stepwise fitted to test variables associated with fatigue that showed a trend with a p -value of <0.1 after univariate analysis.
approached significancep = 0.1
A 2 × 2 repeated-measures ANOVA confirmed a significant overall improvement ( p < 0.05), although the session × tDCS interaction only approached significance ( p = 0.1).
Specifically, twelve of the variables identified via χ 2 analysis in Table 2 with significant p -values ( p ≤ 0.05) or p -values that were approaching significance (0.05 < p ≤ 0.1) were entered into the logistic regression model.
close to significancep ≤ 0.1
For the multivariable analysis, we considered variables whose p -values were significant or close to significance ( p ≤ 0.1) in the univariable test.
approached significancep = 0.1
The expression levels of miR-145 and miR-155 increased as the risk increased, however, this only approached significance ( p = 0.1 and p = 0.115, respectively). 3.5.
A near-significant difference was observed on the CBCL rule-breaking subscale, with boys showing slightly higher scores than girls (4.26 vs. 3.10, respectively ~ p < 0.10).
borderline non-significantp = 0.100
1.00 m/s, p = 0.036), and handgrip strength showed a borderline non-significant trend toward lower values ( p = 0.100).
Subsequently, backward elimination of the independent variables was performed until only those with at least borderline significant ( p < 0.1) beta coefficients remained in the model.
borderline significancep < 0.1
All covariates that were statistically significant ( p < 0.05) or exhibited borderline significance ( p < 0.1 and >0.05) in the crude analyses were included in the adjusted analyses.
Results indicating a tendency toward statistical significance (0.05 ≤ p < 0.1) were additionally emphasized to indicate potential trends requiring further research. 2.3.
In preliminary univariate analyses, variables showing marginal significance ( p < 0.10) in t -tests (for continuous variables) or chi-square tests (for categorical variables) were selected for inclusion in subsequent multivariate logistic regression modeling.
borderline significancep < 0.10
The analysis proceeded in a stepwise manner, beginning with age- and sex-adjusted univariate regression models for each inflammatory parameter, followed by a multivariable model including biomarkers that demonstrated at least borderline significance ( p < 0.10) in univariate testing.
a trend towards significancep = 0.1
ONL thickness was associated with an increase in PWS with 0.060 dB/μm at an eccentricity of 5.2° ( p < 0.001), while EZ thickness only showed a trend towards significance (0.017 dB/μm at an eccentricity of 5.2°; p = 0.1).
In the next step, all variables were tested for any changes from “start” to “mid”, “mid” to “end”, or “start to end”, and those tending to have a significant trend of changing at least p < 0.1 were identified.
The number of lines of palliative chemotherapy delivered also showed a nonsignificant trend in the younger age group ( p = 0.10).
There were slightly significant differences observed between the classic, quad, and maxillary defected groups ( p = 0.1).
For GOHAI, while total scores showed a positive trend ( p < 0.10), the psychosocial domain was significantly superior in the intervention group at both 1 month (Adjusted p = 0.008) and 3 months (Adjusted p = 0.010) with a moderate effect size ( η p 2 ≈ 0.10).
