“borderline significant”

In an RCT assessing in CKD patients, the effect of an enteric-coated probiotic combination of Lactobacillus acidophilus , Bifidobacterium longum and Streptococcus thermophilus on the evolution of BUN, serum creatinine and uric acid, only a borderline significant decrease in BUN could be observed, which remained absent in close to 40% of subjects [ 85 ].

26 suggesting a borderline significant increase in cancer risk associated with the C allele, particularly for GC.

For an increase of 10 μg/m 3 of PM 10 , we found a significant increase of 2.8% in asthma symptoms, and an increase for cough (1.2%) and a decrease of PEF (−0.082 L/min) that were borderline significant.

In a cohort study in Sweden, among women aged 40–49 years old at enrolment who were followed-up for an average of 12 years, a 2-point increase in an MD score similar to that in the Greek studies, was associated with a borderline significant 16% reduction of overall cancer mortality (95% confidence interval −1 to 29% reduction); among women aged below 40 years at enrolment, no association was evident ( Lagiou et al , 2006 ).

There was some evidence (borderline significant) of earlier breast development with higher ΣmolPAHs.

Interestingly, genome-wide association studies identified a borderline significant association of the rs4765623 polymorphism in SCARB1 with ccRCC susceptibility ( 53 ), indicating a pathogenic role of SR-BI in ccRCC.

Thus borderline significant associations of KRAS mutation with inferior treatment outcomes were observed.

Significant tumor shrinkage was associated with female patients, higher IGF-I (x ULN) levels during PAS-LAR and borderline significant with non-hypointense adenomas at baseline (OR=6.35, 95% CI=1.42-36.4; OR=13.2, 95% CI=2.14-129.1; OR=5.97, 95% CI=0.91-65.5 respectively).

The hallmark for androgen receptor was borderline significant, with a nominal p value of 0.12 (Fig. 3 D).

Line 470 – this is clearly borderline significant, I suggest stating that.

Statistically significant 1.8- and 3.8-fold mortality risks were observed for circulatory system and cerebrovascular diseases (based on 21 and 4 deaths, respectively), and a borderline significant 1.3-fold risk seen for all-cause mortality in technologists who reported performing interventional procedures weekly in 1990 or later.

Furthermore, a borderline significant difference was found between men and women, with men showing a worse HRQoL.

Duration of mechanical ventilation before VAP was borderline significant. The other variables were not significant on multivariate analysis ( Table IV ).

As shown in Table 4 , BRAF mutation was overall associated with a significantly shorter CSS in patients with MSS tumours in unadjusted analysis (HR = 2.36; 95% CI = 1.44–3.86) and borderline significant in adjusted analysis (HR = 1.80; 95% CI = 0.98–3.28).

We did find a borderline significant reduction in non-timing errors (combination of ‘omission’ + ‘other’ errors); however, after adjusting for confounders, significance was lost suggesting that the results may have been coincidental.

Other minerals, such as zinc, selenium, and lutein, only showed borderline significant association with BV [ 10 ].

First, the patient sample size was relatively small and smaller than the healthy control sample, which may have contributed to the borderline significant findings.

Borderline significant difference was observed in regard to the greater prevalence of patients fulfilling minor arrhythmia criterion in ECG-positive ARVD/C patients.

The borderline significant interaction of canagliflozin treatment and stroke prevention with baseline use of an antithrombotic is likely to reflect a chance finding consequent upon the many comparisons made rather than a real effect.

We identified a borderline significant interaction between age at the end of treatment and race/ethnicity in the association of LTSC nonattendance ( P for interaction = 0.049).

However, there was a significantly higher rate of otitis media after maternal MMS, which was borderline significant at 2 years and slightly more significant at 6 years; it was suggested that this result might have been the consequence of chance due to multiple comparisons, but required further investigation.

The authors found no effects on mucosal PrEP concentration but detected an impact of the use of lubricant on the gut microbiota, with decreased Bacteroides , increased concentrations of Prevotella (statistically borderline significant), and increased microbial diversity.

Striving for consistency of reporting DTI findings in this way also assists in situations where there is a possibility of over- or under-interpreting borderline significant results.

Highly sensitive child scale subscales LST and EOE were borderline significant.

In all statistical comparisons, a p value of < 0.05 was considered statistically significant, while a p value between 0.05 and 0.10 was considered borderline significant.
