Except for the collective-loss condition, the difference was only borderline significant.

However, the risk of CKD was attenuated and borderline significant in most studies when persons with diabetes were excluded. 40 In the current study, MetS was associated with baseline hyperfiltration and subsequent long-term GFR decline using accurate GFR measurements.

However, no apparent reasons were found to explain this borderline significant difference.

Borderline significant results were shown for the association between dietary magnesium (per 100 mg/d) and CHD mortality (HR: 0.67; 95% CI: 0.45–1.01; Table 2 ).

Note that all non-significant SES results for the mRS stroke subsample were borderline significant, while many BI subsample results (both SRM and SES) were also close to significance.

In addition BNP>100 pg/ml showed a borderline significant value of 0.077 as an independent predictor of overall death (HR 1.47, CI0.96–2.24).

In 2020−2021, among Black individuals, those in the highest quartile of anti-Black sentiment had a 31% higher (95% CI: 2%−69%) prevalence of prepregnancy hypertension, and the 19% increase in prepregnancy hypertension among Asian individuals in the highest quartile of anti-Asian sentiment was borderline significant (95% CI: 0%−44%).

When comparing symptomatic patients to asymptomatic patients in our study, there was a borderline significant difference in the number of patients with operations on the left side.

Lastly, given the exploratory nature of the current study, we have reported borderline significant differences in cortical activations ( p s < 0.10).

A sensitivity analysis including the baseline measurement for diversity yielded borderline significant results for both antibiotics, suggesting that there may be an effect of both antibiotics on the microbiome but that the present study may have been underpowered to detect smaller differences.

In contrast, the case–cohort European Prospective Investigation into Cancer and Nutrition (EPIC)—InterAct study (a multi-center, prospective, cohort study of 519,978 participants from 8 European countries aimed at investigating the relationship of environmental factors, food habits and lifestyle with cancer and other chronic diseases), including 12,403 incident T2D cases and a random subcohort of 16,835 subjects, did not reveal significant effect modifications of TCF7L2 variants in the association between cereal fiber and T2D, except for a borderline significant protective association among carriers of TCF7L2 rs12255372 GG [ 145 ].

In the present study we found only a borderline significant negative correlation between adiponectin and severity of dementia measured with MMSE, which is in agreement with previous studies of Bigalke et al.

An inverse association that was borderline significant was detected in a Swedish cohort [ 16 ], but no adverse effect of mammographic density on survival was found in a British [ 15 ] or a US [ 17 ] cohort.

Knowledge of pregnancy complications also had a borderline significant relationship with near miss, reducing the risk by half [OR=0.53; 95% CI (0.27 – 1.02)].
