“near statistical significance”

Using the metabolomics data, T3 concentrations of the same phthalates were positively associated with DHEA-S, yet only the associations with DEHP biomarkers were near statistical significance.

As with the previous analysis, the t statistic found no evidence that the mean delay of 4–10 ms was anywhere near statistical significance and Bayesian statistics found substantial support for the absence of a delay.

Globally, these results could suggest a possible role of global ceruloplasmin (with copper near statistical significance) and zinc deficiency in the risk for PD (perhaps related to the role of these metals in oxidative stress), despite a previous meta-analysis not showing a lower dietary intake of copper and zinc in PD patients [ 124 ].

Taking an overall view of the results, comparing events or complications between the two types of retention ( Table 1 ), the ODA group suffered more problems related to retention loss, retention insert changes, resin fracture, and relining while the ODB group suffered more prosthetic dental wear, screw loosening, and complete prosthetic failure, although differences were nowhere near statistical significance ( Figure 2 ).

If an association is not significant – but near statistical significance – it makes sense to consider it in a harmful/beneficial direction.

Although the small sample size of two patients in Group 3 was not anywhere near statistical significance, the combination of the retrospective data obtained, as well as the inaccurate outcomes of the first two eyes treated with Phorcides surgical planning resulted in the discontinuation of Phorcides use in our center.

The effect of treatment on TRP concentration was near statistical significance ( P (2,39) = 0.0697), whereas the effects on the kind of bud and cultivar, were statistically significant ( P < 0.05).

Assessment of gene expression in HNSCC tumor tissues Vs normal mucosa controls Since only MAGEB2 showed near statistical significance for promoter demethylation in tumors we proceeded to assess if promoter demethylation of MAGEB2 is associated with tumor specific increased MAGEB2 gene expression.

It is worth noting that the LDL/HDL marker was substantially higher in the PreDM-OB group (3.014 ± 2.070–3.660) compared to their NG-OB counterparts (2.433 ± 2.067–3.171) with a p -value of 0.054, which is very near statistical significance ( Figure 3 G). 3.5.

Interestingly, our results showed that there were no significant differences in Post-Op sRAGE between the aortic surgery and the valve surgery groups, whereas Post-Op interleukin-8 levels in the aortic surgery group tended to be higher than in the valve surgery group with near statistical significance.

Contrary to the SE fraction, in the thalamic NE and SD fractions, there were only trends, although near statistical significance, towards altered protein levels (Supplementary Table 4 ).

The sample size of this study may have increased the chances of type II error in the analysis, as some variable associations reflected near statistical significance. 5.

Knowing that for every 1 mg/dl increase in HDL-C, CVD risk is reduced by 2-3% [ 19 ], this near statistical significance should not be ignored as potentially clinically relevant.

Only the correlations between the atrophy progression after 4 years and the endothelial cells were significant at the three other resolutions (68R: r = −0.33, P -value spin = 0.04; 114R: r = −0.33, P -value spin = 0.003; 219R: r = −0.25; P- value spin = 0.049) while the correlations between the atrophy progression after 4 years and oligodendrocytes were near statistical significance (68R: r = −0.23; P -value spin = 0.06; 219R: r = −0.14; P -value spin = 0.06) or significant (114R: r = −0.21; P -value spin = 0.049).

These values also reached near statistical significance in some cases.

Other two are near statistical significance and it is very likely that larger sample size could provide significance.

Compared with placebo, the effect of finerenone on the CV composite outcomes across the range of baseline eGDR values reached near statistical significance.

No significant differences were found in EMT and the number of fertilized oocytes, while differences in the number of collected and mature oocytes were near statistical significance ( Table 1 ). 2.2.

A greater number of BLT sessions was correlated with a more significant decrease or improvement in depression and functioning assessment scores, with BDI-II and HAM-D reaching near statistical significance, as shown in Table 7 .

In contrast, highSKP2 expression was a strong significant indicator in model B (RR = 2.91, 95% CI: 1.41–5.99), and GI bleeding was also valuable with near statistical significance (RR = 1.88, 95% CI: 0.98–3.64).

Similarly, a prospective cohort analysis revealed the same results [ 22 ]; however, in the previous study, only V60 of the contralateral parotid gland (95% CI: 0.99-1.07, P = 0.080) was associated with near statistical significance with the presence of xerostomia.

With respect to statistical treatment, while no independent variables violated the proportional odds assumption in our ordinal logistic regression models, the results of the Brant tests and the near statistical significance of the diagnostic source within these results suggest that multinomial logistic regression modeling might be beneficial for future analyses.

It was also observed that, although the cases obtained an average score higher in the trait anger/temperament dimension than the controls, this difference was not statistically significant, but it was very near statistical significance.

This association was also near statistical significance in the liver transplant subgroup (aHR = 1.02; 95% CI, 0.98-1.06; I 2 = 73%; N = 3).

In the univariable analysis, all parameters showed hazard ratios suggestive of increased risk and were near statistical significance.
