“borderline significant”

Was there selection bias? Table 2 shows that engagement in care at 12 months (measured by VL assessment) was higher in the routine care arm than in the intervention arm, ,with an OR of 0.6 and a P 0f 0.058, which is borderline significant, and begs the question of whether the intervention would have been detrimental.

23 After adjusting for BMI and other confounding variables, the association between diet risk and high LSMs was borderline significant.

There was a borderline significant difference in the medium elongation condition according to the frequentist t -test, but the Bayes factor indicated only very weak evidence for a difference ( t 9 = 2.3, p = 0.047, BF 10 = 1.85). 2.3.2.

First, the increase in the AUC (from 0.787 to 0.798 for CHD, from 0.822 to 0.829 for stroke) reached a borderline significant level after adding IMT to the models with traditional risk factors for CHD.

Finally, increased levels of cGFAP were associated with reduced hippocampal volume ( r = − 0.347, p = 0.010), although this finding was borderline significant.

At first followup, only baseline SBP seemed to be an independent predictor (borderline significant) for ΔSBP.

Static MTV and TLG showed borderline significant differences in pleural invasion.

Furthermore, a pilot study found significant or borderline significant increases in several parameters reflecting intestinal barrier dysfunction and inflammation in PCOS patients, suggesting that PCOS may be related to metabolic disorders ( 40 ).

However, there were several borderline significant interactions noted for fasting status with each of small LDL NMR particles, LDL NMR size, and HDL NMR size in relation to diabetes ( P for interaction 0.08, 0.06, and 0.05, respectively).

It excluded maximum temperature, which was borderline significant.

A single unblinded RCT of only 35 subjects of oral prednisolone vs no treatment demonstrated non-significant superiority of corticosteroid therapy considering global group changes in Neuropathy Impairment Scores (NIS), with borderline significant superiority, but only considering numbers of improved subjects excluding patients having not completed the study, but not with an intention-to-treat analysis. 51 A few studies have shown equivalence of corticosteroids to intravenous immunoglobulins, themselves of RCT-proven benefit in CIDP, as discussed elsewhere in this paper.

A Swedish population registry-based cohort study found a borderline significant increased risk of invasive cancer in patients treated with fingolimod compared to the general population (HR 1.53, 95% CI 0.98–2.38) ( 87 ).

A greater frequency of vegetable consumption, but not fruit, was associated with a borderline significant reduction in the prevalence of obesity.

The differences in the error rates produced under sample sizes (20 and 40) and (20 and 80) are borderline significant (overall level α = 0.05).

Interestingly, two common known risk factors, vitamin D and glucose, are near the bottom of list: glucose loses its significance mostly by conditioning on age and vitamin D is only borderline significant.

However, considering a Bonferroni corrected P value of 0.0028, the LDL cholesterol–OA association findings ( P = 0.004 from multivariable MR) can be considered borderline significant, and replication in the UK Biobank further strengthened this observation.

Although, the odds ratio for women was borderline significant with the P-value of 0.051.

From all serum markers for bone metabolism only BAP was higher in the older age group (borderline significant).

The association of CVD with weight loss was borderline significant.

Additionally, a study of adults (40–79 years old) from China reported a borderline significant positive association between directly measured personal PM 2.5 exposure and CIMT.

The appointment rate was 15–18% higher for non-routine healthcare and in patients with any GI-related healthcare use the rate of GI-related healthcare use was 57–61% higher (the latter was borderline significant after adding IBS and GERD to the model).

Results indicate that these discrepancies occur for the borderline significant taxa. 4.4.

Discussion In our study, we found a borderline significant positive effect of receiving vitamin B12 and folic acid for six months on the total ASQ-3 scores.

The interacting SNP pair found with the dominant model associated with nodal status (N), with a borderline significant p value of 0.010, and may also associate with metastasis at diagnosis (M), but the difference was not statistically significant.

Stone location demonstrated a borderline significant association with outcomes: RFs > 4 mm were more frequent in cases with stones across multiple locations, whereas stone-free status was more commonly achieved in patients with predominantly pelvic or lower pole stone burden.
