“of borderline significance”

3 This same US study showed that a CIT of >12 hours was of borderline significance in predicting survival.

Where terms were of borderline significance (e.g. associated P value when included in the model of 0.05–0.10) then alternative models (i.e. those that retained or excluded the factor) were both reported [45] .

With all the limitations of a very small patient series, we noticed a striking outcome difference, albeit of borderline significance by log-rank statistics, between maternal and paternal grafts with an actuarial rejection rate of 20 and 86%, respectively ( Figure 1 ).

In conclusion, this meta-analysis found that isolated tricuspid valve repair was associated with decreased rates of operative mortality (of borderline significance), renal failure and pacemaker implantation, so surgical repair should generally be recommended when feasible, similar to mitral valve surgery.

[ 29 ] reported higher serum IL-17A levels in patients with active AA, and IL-17A levels were also found to be varied among AA phenotypes, but the difference was of borderline significance.

The p-values for the effect of time-of-day and CPT for each of the secondary outcomes were not further corrected for the multiplicity arising from testing multiple measures and therefore, we do not focus on p-values of borderline significance for these measures.

The hazard ratios per IQR were modest and of borderline significance however, reflecting the low exposure contrasts in these low-exposure settings.

These genes/pathways of borderline significance may just be false-positive results in the measured only analysis.

The adjusted odds ratio for "lack of methadone treatment" (in the six months prior to testing) was of borderline significance (2.9, 95% CI 0.9–9.7).

However, an upward trend occurred in 2-year, 5-year and 10-year NS, which was of borderline significance for men and more pronounced for women.

The Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status showed an association of borderline significance, whereas the Charlson comorbidity index and the American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) physical classification score showed no associations.

However, some studies revealed that despite a significant increase in the use of advanced treatments, the improvement in mortality rates is of borderline significance [ 14 , 24 ].

An inverse association was observed between Mn intake and the risk of the MetS among women, whereas a positive association was found among men, although both associations were of borderline significance ( Table 3 ).

T-scores of less than 60 were considered not altered, T-scores ranging from 60 to 64 were considered of borderline significance, and T-scores of 65 or above were considered clinically significant.

Although the association of obesity and relapse in our cohort was of borderline significance, high CIR rates were seen in the older patients in the overweight/obese category, for whom the cumulative risk of relapse reached 30% in 4 years compared with 17% in younger patients in the same BMI category.

This site was of borderline significance on earlier quantitative chromatin profiling but was subsequently found to be present in other B cell lines ( Figure 3 A) and to co-localize with a conserved region of DNA (see following section).

Age and hypertension remained as prognostic factors in the subgroup of RNA test-positive patients except that hypertension was of borderline significance.

Neither IL-6R, nor IL-8 or IL-18, showed any consistent significant relationships vs the traditional measurements of body composition, while IL-16 showed relationships being of borderline significance.

From a clinical perspective, though del(17p), affecting TP53 , did not determine a significantly worse outcome and del(8p) was only of borderline significance, the presence of both deletions (indeed often associated) had a highly significant negative impact on the outcome of splenic MZLs [ 74 ].

There are reports of borderline significance between GSTT1 deletion polymorphism and progression-free survival 26 .

Thus, the observed association is of borderline significance.

Though these associations were only found to be of borderline significance, we should not discount the importance of FGFR2 as a BC susceptibility locus in our population.

However, OGG1 variants have recently been demonstrated to be significantly associated with a multiple adenoma phenotype [ 42 ] and the development of sporadic CRC [ 43 ], although the latter association was of borderline significance and should be further investigated [ 43 ].

There was no association between moderate PA and periosteal circumference (β = 0.015), a weak inverse association of borderline significance with endosteal circumference adjusted for periosteal circumference (β = −0.019), and a weak inverse association with BMD C (β = −0.025).

Two factors were of borderline significance: higher professional titles and married.
