If a trait association was barely significant we conducted 1000 simulations in Mesquite with 10 iterations for the likelihood search to obtain a p value; for trait associations that were significant, we tested hypotheses about conditional evolution and the temporal order of trait acquisition by comparing the likelihood estimates of two correlated-evolution models: one in which all transition rates were allowed to vary and one that constrained the two transition rates to be equal (Figure 2 A).
Based on reviewing the relevant studies we found that although MIS resulted in slightly better scores than ORIF on post-operative outcomes such as functional score, imaging score, reduction quality, and complication rate, the statistical difference between these two kinds of surgical techniques was barely significant ( 22 , 24 , 25 , 27 , 28 ).
It mainly applies to less serious violent outcomes (having been in a physical fight and, to a lesser degree, weapon carrying, though only to fighting if estimated over time), but not to extreme violence (estimated homicide rates among ages 12–24), where the regression coefficient for the contemporaneous effect is − 0.05 and barely significant.
