In correlation with PSM, the number of patients that developed BCR was higher in those with smaller prostates, with a p value almost significant.

The correlation also showed that there was almost significant negative correlation with increasing parasitaemia.

In addition, this population showed a higher disease activity that reached statistical significance with HUPI and was almost significant when estimated by DAS28 (Table 1 ).

In this work, we follow Dienes’ recommendation from Understanding Psychology as a Science that determining significance with p-values is an absolute cut-off, and to report only greater or less than the alpha to limit the temptation to interpret anything as “almost significant”, which is not possible under frequentist statistics.

There was no significant correlation and a low Pearson‘s correlation (almost significant) between the date of exposition and number of the protentional contacts with SARS-Co-2 r = 0.265, N = 52, p = 0.058. 3.3.

Navigating the healthcare system is almost significant, with informal caregivers ranking it as more important than older adults.

sunset” were almost significant ( p (MC) = 0.06) ( Table 3 ).

It is worthy to note that sexual desire after treatment was almost significant.

We witnessed a significant negative between-individual association between GLUM and PA, and an almost significant association with SB, indicating that an increase in GLUM leads to a decrease in PA and an increase in SB.

Cloud cover was not important, and atmospheric pressure change was of minor importance (almost significant).

BBP across the 85 sites in the early period for Hands can be used to predict the patients’ average rating of the stimulus with reasonably high accuracy (n = 10 trials since 1/3 of the 30 unique videos were used for testing decoding performance for each randomization, r P(8) = 0.575, p 1 =9 × 10 –4 based on reshuffled distribution), and BBP in the late period for Faces with almost significant accuracy ( r P(8) = 0.331, p 1 =0.058, Figure 4e ).

An almost significant difference was observed in histological findings between patients who had their last screening within 2 years and those with longer intervals.

As the difference between individuals was almost significant, we compared, for each koala separately, the fodder trees in rehabilitated areas to those in undisturbed areas.

However, the almost significant mean change of the force impulse from low to high riser height over all gradients was −4%, revealing its relevance with a large effect ( eta p 2 = 0.16).

As dyslipidemia was almost significant, results are adjusted for these two factors: age and presence of dyslipidemia.

Still less should you use ‘almost significant’, ‘tendency to significant’ or any of the hundreds of similar circumlocutions listed by Matthew Hankins [ 17 ] on his Still not Significant blog. — If you do a significance test, just state the p -value and give the effect size and confidence intervals.

We saw an absolute difference of 4–6% in the prevalence of stunting in three of the four supplemented groups, a difference that was significant in two and almost significant in the third group.

They found an almost significant inverse association between tertiles of absolute vegetable protein intake and development of DKD during 5.5 years of follow-up (odds ratio: 0.86; 95% CI: 0.74–1.01), which is in line with our findings.

The GWAS also confirmed the known effects of reduced height ( Rht ) and photoperiod sensitivity ( Ppd ) genes in wheat, and the Ppd-D1 gene showed an almost significant association with grain yield.

From the best synchrony model (model 6; Table S4 ), the geometric mean lambda for Antarctic fur seals was estimated as 0.984 [0.974, 0.995], equivalent to an annual decline of 2% since 1985; and for southern elephant seals, the geometric mean lambda was estimated as 0.993 [0.985, 1.001], equivalent to an almost significant annual decline of 1%.

Trunk height was almost significant, despite appearing in the best models, which probably suggests a trend toward greater height between the ground and the first branches in the selected trees.

Correlations between adult and juvenile survival with a time lag of plus or minus 1 year were almost significant, but given the uncertainty linked to survival estimation we will not speculate about it here.

On the contrary, we observed a slight increase in renal function with almost significant values ( Table 3 ).

Although the Sobel test did not significantly confirm full mediation between cognitive flexibility and parental stress ( z = −1.85, p = .06), results were almost significant and indicated a clear tendency towards a mediating effect of PRF (Cohen, 1994 ; Greenland et al., 2016 ).
