“borderline significant”

Operative vaginal delivery rate was found to be higher in the MSAF group than that of clear AF group, but the difference was only borderline significant (OR=1.5, 95% CI: 1.0–2.2, p =0.05).

Smedman and Vessby [ 15 ] reported a borderline significant (P = 0.05) reduction in the percent body fat of normal weight subjects fed CLA (4.2 g/d for 12 weeks) as compared to the placebo group.

Partly to counterbalance the possible slight liberalism of borderline significant Friedman and/or Nemenyi results, a Bonferroni correction was applied to all tests (whose original significance threshold was set at P < 0.05), leading to a Cochran-Friedman-Nemenyi experiment-wide significance threshold of P < 0.016.

In the HDP cohort, the g-a haplotype (relative to T-G haplotype) was borderline significant for increased risk of HDPs when carried by the child (double dose: RR = 1.58, 95% CI: (1.00, 2.52), p = 0.05).

Overall, the magnitude of mean change in CD4 + T cell-associated HIV-1 DNA was similar between baseline and all treatment time points with a borderline significant mean change in HIV-1 DNA levels from baseline to treatment week 4 being observed in the primary efficacy population (mean −0.21 log 10 copies/10 6 cells; p = 0.05) but not from baseline to week 12 (mean: −0.17 log 10 copies/10 6 cells; p = 0.13) as shown in Table S3 .

Although there was a tendency for Lactobacillus populations to increase after chitosan supplementation, the mean change in the amount of this microbial agent in the chitosan versus placebo group was estimated as borderline significant ( P = 0.05).

Similar to the observations in the neoadjuvant cohort, gene expression profiling was more often possible in high-grade tumors (borderline significant; p = 0.05, Table 4 ).

In addition, hsCRP levels decreased after T&A (3.12±1.22 to 2.23±1.17 mg/dl ; p<0.01), but improvements in HOMA-IR were only borderline significant (2.1±0.9 to 1.7±0.8; p<0.05).

Overall, the prevalence of any ocular morbidity was 12% in government schools (186) and 15% in private schools (100) with a borderline significant difference ( P = 0.05; CI = 95%).

There was a borderline significant four-way interaction between retention period, presence of irrelevant information, colour congruence and spatial congruence ( F (1,79) = 3.959, p = .05).

When histotype was stratified by tumour stage, Kaplan–Meier analysis revealed a borderline significant difference in survival between patients with homologous and heterologous histotypes (log-rank p = 0.050).

Within-group analysis showed a borderline significant improvement in the sham group ( p = 0.05) and a trend toward improvement in the real tDCS group ( p = 0.06).

Additionally, low SpO2 showed a borderline significant association with mortality (CHR: 5.24, 95% CI, 4.71–7.73, p = 0.05) (Table 6 ).

However, data indicated a borderline significant subgroup differences ( P = 0.05) between subgroups of trials that excluded participants with PTSD and those that did not: a numerically larger treatment effect was observed in the trials that excluded PTSD (SMD −0.32, 95% CI −0.60 to −0.03) versus those that did not exclude PTSD (SMD 0.02, 95% CI −0.15 to 0.18).

In terms of pronation, there was a borderline significant improvement favoring RHA (SMD = 0.87; 95% CI: 0.01 to 1.74; p = 0.05), amid high heterogeneity (I2 = 88%).

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).

For the MTRR A66G polymorphism, we detected a borderline significant interaction between this polymorphism and overweight/obesity on serum HDL-C levels ( P = 0.050, Table 3 ).

There were also borderline significant differences between communities (adjusted r 2 = 0.02; p = 0.05).

Despite substantial heterogeneity across studies ( I 2 = 80.0%, p < 0.00001), the pooled effect size indicated a borderline significant change in stress (SMD = 0.230, 95% CI 0.000 to 0.460, p = 0.050).

Lifestyle factors also differed between groups: dietary frequency and sleep duration showed significant differences (both P < .001), and physical activity differed marginally ( P = .05, borderline significant).

In this analysis, we found a borderline significant correlation between age and islet Cd levels in non-smokers (R 2 = 0.145, p = 0.050, n = 27, Fig. 2b ) but not in the relatively small cohort of smokers (n = 6).

Additionally, the age-standardised 10-year mean risk for non-Sami and Sami men was borderline significant (9.5 vs. 9.8; p =0.05).

Baseline IL-6 ( Table 4 , down) showed a borderline significant positive association with attention at baseline (TMT-A: β = 0.360, p = 0.050), which persisted as a trend at 5 years (β = 0.996, p = 0.052) and reached significance at 10 years (β = 0.568, p = 0.020).

There was a borderline significant result between age and the outcome variable (p = 0.05).

The slope of the regression line is only borderline significant ( p = .05) and the data indicate a large variation around the fitted line ( r 2 = 0.01, Figure 2 ).
