Users of these products were more likely to agree that they provide adequate protein (mean = 2.6; 95% CI: 2.4–2.8) compared to non-users (mean = 2.2; 95% CI: 1.8–2.6), with the results showing marginal significance ( p = 0.05).

There was a positive trend for increased pelvis BMD by blackcurrant treatment ( p < 0.05), but the differences in both BC groups were not significantly greater than those in the control group.

When two groups were defined a posteriori based on the insulin values of LDIGIT (120–150 min) , there was a borderline significant group by time interaction for PAI-1 ( p = 0.05; n = 49) and the change in PAI-1 was greater in the insulin-resistant group (177, 61 for HMD vs. 128, 52 ng/mL for HWD; p < 0.001) than in the insulin-sensitive group (137, 80 for HMD vs. 113, 39 ng/mL for HWD; p = 0.02).

Although we examined all nominally significant findings ( p ≤ 0.05), we further corrected for multiple testing in the meta-analysis ( p ≤ 0.00167), corresponding to a Bonferroni correction of 30 independent tests. 3.

There were no significant differences either in the estimated 14-MEDAS scores between the different age ranges (18–24 years, 6.25 ± 1.73; 25–34 years, 6.09 ± 1.97; 35–44 years, 6.16 ± 2.03; 45–54 years, 6.72 ± 2.18; 55–64 years, 6.14 ± 2.24; 65–81 years, 5.89 ± 2.09; p -value = 0.418) although we detected a small and almost significant negative correlation between age and 14-MEDAS ( r = −0.1, p -value = 0.05).

Biochemical test results of the metabolic indicators showed that the AST level decreased at 25 μM while showing an increasing trend within the range of 50–100 μM; despite that, the differences among different groups was not significant ( p > 0.05).

Effect of Niacin on Alpha Diversity Analysis Relative to the CTX group, the HNA group showed a trend toward higher alpha diversity, as measured by the Chao1, Ace, Shannon, and Simpson indices ( Figure 9 A–D; p < 0.05).

Evidence Classification and Quality Assessment Each unique association that was nominally significant ( p -value < 0.05) was classified as strong evidence (Class I), highly suggestive evidence (Class II), suggestive evidence (Class III) or weak associations (Class IV), with regard to epidemiological validity criteria ( Table S2 ) [ 21 ].

Q2 (models 1 and 2) were borderline significant ( p > 0.05 and p < 0.09).

While there was an increasing trend in ULK2 expression among the intervention groups, no significant differences in ULK2 expression were observed between the Aging group and the Normal group ( p > 0.05).

BOLD, a community-based intervention, demonstrated borderline significant decreases in perceived pain as moderate/severe (45.5% to 38.2% at post-test; p = 0.05) [ 37 ].

For mean arousal ratings, there was a marginally significant main effect of distractor category, F (1,32) = 4.17, p = 0.050, with high-calorie food stimuli being rated as significantly more arousing than neutral stimuli.

After false discovery rate ( FDR ) correction, pathway enrichment analyses for genes harboring nominally significant ( p < 0.05) probes identified 44 significant pathways ( q < 0.05), and 5 pathways were related to lipid metabolism.

Academic program distribution approached significance ( p = 0.050).

A trend towards higher eczema presentation was reported in Group B infants, but the difference was marginally significant ( p = 0.05).

Although glucose AUC I was not significantly different among each study condition, KME10 and KMES10 approached significance ( Figure 4 C; p > 0.05 for both).

We also evaluated excess significance bias, potentially arising from publication bias or selective reporting, using a chi-square test to compare the observed number of studies with nominally significant results ( p < 0.05) against the expected number.

Meanwhile, the authors found that Se supplementation improved thyroid function in women with thyroiditis, for which the decreased TSH levels became almost significantly lower than in females with thyroiditis on the placebo ( p = 0.05).

Statistical significance was accepted at p < 0.05, and differences were considered approaching significance between p = 0.05 and 0.10.

In the multivariable-adjusted analysis, sodium (adjusted odds ratio [OR] 0.89, 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.82–0.96; p = 0.004) and potassium (adjusted OR 0.87, 95% CI 0.77–0.99; p = 0.04) remained significantly associated, while phosphorus showed borderline significance (adjusted OR 0.64, 95% CI 0.41–1.00; p = 0.05).

Trained individuals exhibited a positive trend toward improvement [WMD = 6.33 kg, p = 0.05], while untrained participants showed no significant changes.

Regarding within-group changes, a borderline significant ( p = 0.05) result was detected for a reduction in stress measured by DASS-21 within the HPD group, as well as an improvement in subjective mood (positive affect) ( p = 0.03) measured by PANAS. 3.3.

Although the relative change in balance test scores was positive in the RCH + HD group (3.7 ± 17.1 s) and negative in controls (−2.4 ± 12.7 s), the difference did not reach statistical significance ( p = 0.05).

In contrast, HbA1c level was supported by moderate-certainty evidence, with a borderline significant reduction (MD: −0.17; p = 0.05) and acceptable heterogeneity (I 2 = 44%).

For hip fractures, the association of allium vegetables was borderline significant ( p = 0.050), but did not reach significance for cruciferous vegetables ( p = 0.157).
