“marginally significant”

Mean directional and absolute effects of neighbourhood diversity on plant traits Leaf toughness was the only leaf trait that displayed a significant directional change with plant diversity; focal plant leaves were on average tougher in monocultures than in species mixtures, whereas SLA and leaf nitrogen both showed a marginally significant positive response to neighbourhood diversity (Table 1 , Figure 1a ).

Although not presented here, the effect of soil T10 (as a marginally significant variable) on the GHG fluxes was also investigated, both on its own and in combination with either WTD or TDN, but this resulted in non‐significant models.

The crude incidence rate of BI events (TIA or ischemic stroke) per 1000 person-years was a marginally significant one-and-a-half-fold higher in participants with PACs (8.0 (5.9–10.7)), compared to participants without PACs (5.3 (4.8–5.8)), and a statistically insignificant one-and-a-half-fold higher in participants with AF (7.9 (4.9–12.0)), compared to participants without AF (5.4 (4.9–5.9)).

The effect of modality was also marginally significant, with production having more positive activity than comprehension.

The alteration in blood serum levels of their third co-metabolite isoleucine was weaker, with a marginally significant decrease of 11% in mCRPC patients against BPH patients.

In the East Asian group (including Chinese and Korean), family income had a marginally significant association with SMI.

One survey study reported that the association between SSB consumption and diabetes was marginally significant after adjusting for adiposity indexes, such as body fatness, BMI, and waist circumference[ 30 ].

A recently published multicenter prospective cohort study with a 25-year follow-up reported a marginally significant inverse association between non-fried fish consumption and CKD incidence in young American adults, implying that non-fried fish consumption might be beneficial in the primary prevention of CKD [ 92 ].

In addition, the path coefficients in the SEM of subgroup who majored in medicine showed a marginally significant correlation, whereas the subgroup who majored in non-medicine was similar to those in the entire sample SEM.

p -values < 0.05 were considered marginally significant, <0.01 significant, and <0.001 highly significant.

A marginally significant temporal change was apparent in Bacteroidetes.

Participants with detectable α-HCH concentrations showed a marginally significant higher risk of NHD cancer (HR 2.79; 95% CI: 0.85, 9.11). 3.4.

There were no KEGG pathways that were associated with MEHP after adjustment for multiple comparisons, but there were 20 pathways associated with MEHP that were marginally significant with an unadjusted p value less than 0.05 (Online Resource 6).

The p -value obtained from Friedman’s test ( p = 0.049) indicated a marginally significant difference in the ulcer area of the two treatment groups at the different timepoints.

EC which was specifically developed to treat fatigue in MS had a marginally significant effect on fatigue at end-of-treatment and was ranked one of the least effective treatments, followed by flexibility exercise and education.

Results became marginally significant (in the direction opposite to our hypothesis) when this model was run without covariates in the model, ( b [SE] ​= ​-0.012 [0.007], 95% CI [-0.02 – 0.00], p ​= ​.078), and when excluding individuals reporting illness symptoms at either timepoint, ( b [SE] ​= ​-0.013 [0.007], 95% CI [-0.03 – 0.00], p ​= ​.062). 3.1.1 Exploratory biological analyses Across the full sample, telomere length increased from baseline, and a one-sample t -test on the change scores suggested this finding was marginal, t (222) ​= ​1.77, p ​= ​.08.

The link between maternal blood lead concentrations and baby weight was found to be marginally significant.

A trend in the expected direction can be observed and could be responsible for this marginally significant test, but this trend seems to be partly driven by only few data points (populations 6 and 8; Fig 5 ).

If one population has an obvious GWAS signal while the other population(s) lack even a marginally significant signal in the same locus, applying CAVIAR to the population with signal may be more appropriate.

Being a study with some marginally significant p values and some wide confidence intervals, further studies, including AIRE gene sequencing and expression, on different ethnicities and including a larger sample size are recommended to clarify the association between AIRE polymorphisms, and disease susceptibility, phenotypic expression, and severity.

In this study, the association between the ‘fish and alcohol’ dietary pattern and total mortality in the age-adjusted and the fully adjusted models was marginally significant for those in the highest consumption group (5th vs. 1st quintile HR 0.94, 95% CI 0.87–1.01; and 5th vs. 1st quintile HR 0.96, 95% CI 0.89–1.03, respectively).

At the single variant level, we found that only SIRT3 expression was significantly associated with pCR rate (p=0.032) in the GSE20194 cohort, although stages T, N, and BMN were marginally significant ( Table 3 ).

In fact, the only variables that are not at least marginally significant predictors of selection include several of those included as constructs related to morality, namely moral relativism, attitudes toward premarital sex, and whether a respondent’s parents are liberal or conservative.

Previous studies indicated the improvement of BCVA and MH closure rates are limited and marginally significant while comparing to conventional ILM peeling surgical technique.[ 25 26 ] The mean gain of BCVA in Yuan et al .[ 25 ] revealed −0.20 logMAR in the ILM flap (cover) technique group (n = 6) postoperatively.

Results Impacts of the nitrogen addition treatment We found a marginally significant increase in net biodiversity effects with species richness (Fig. 2a ; Supplementary Table S3 ).
