In the literature

With regard to: ‘Specifically, intervention participants were less likely to report their lifestyle as ‘very healthy’ or ‘healthy’ (53.4%) compared with controls (59.5%) at the end of the study (PRR=0.94; 95%CI= 0.87, 1.01)’, that CI’s cross over 1.0 would suggest that though approaching significance, the finding is not statistically significant.
Lastly, while Table 4 shows no statistically significant differences between participants with genetic or CSF biomarkers and those without, the cohort with apoE4 or CSF biomarker present had a higher mean number ( P = 0.051) and area ( P = 0.060) of granular membranes that was approaching significance.
The positive relationship between plot complexity and linguistic recursive ability, which was approaching significance in the multiple regression analysis, suggested that children who have higher linguistic recursive ability may have higher syntactic competence as a consequence of which they may need less cognitive resources to form the syntactic units during narrative production and have more cognitive resources left to focus on the plot elements.
The reported ratio represents the mean ratio across the group; the p value relates to a paired samples comparison of ipsilateral versus contralateral volume differences within the same patient across the group, hence the most significant differences do not necessarily correspond with the lowest mean ratios: insular (p = 0.035) cortical atrophy was most marked here, with temporal cortical atrophy (p = 0.09) approaching significance.
