“borderline significance”

But, the community maternal education being ‘above the median’ was at borderline significance.

The pDC/mDC ratio was decreased in neonates delivered via C-section with a borderline significance level (β = -21.9; 95% CI:-39.3,04), due to a more pronounced reduction in pDC than in mDC counts (β = -33.8; 95% CI:-50.5,-11.4 and β = -15.1; 95% CI:-37.0,14.4, respectively) ( Table 4 and Fig 1a ).

There was a borderline significance where the FE spent less time in the AE region for participants with coexisting strabismus compared with controls and anisometropic subjects.

For instance, when all patients with at least one translocation are compared, only LIG3 is overexpressed, however, when patients with two or more translocations are compared with those with an isolated translocation, both genes are significantly up- regulated with PARP1 showing borderline significance, suggesting that PARP1 is most likely associated with severity of genetic risk.

Rs7759938 was indicated to have borderline significance in influencing LIN28B levels although it was not significantly associated with the survival of patients with epithelial ovarian cancer [ 28 ].

In a two-variable adjusted model combining Centre of Mass Shift and Voxels Counting (EPV = 22.0; C-index: 0.641), Centre of Mass Shift retained a consistent directional effect (HR: 0.79; 95% CI: 0.62–1.02; p = 0.067), while Voxels Counting reached statistical significance (HR: 0.71; 95% CI: 0.55–0.93; p = 0.011); the borderline significance of Centre of Mass Shift in the adjusted setting likely reflects reduced statistical power rather than loss of the underlying signal.

In the REGARDS cohort study, with 21,423 participants and 863 CVD deaths, cardiovascular death risk was reduced by 22% in participants who most adhered to the PaleoDiet score (Q5) compared to the lowest quartile, although a borderline significance was observed [ 19 ].

The borderline significance of the nasal mucus model may be explained by the smaller set of available data.

Furthermore, there was a significant association between biological treatment and having moderate/severe DAS28-CRP, but only borderline significance was obtained when radiographic erosions were included in the calculations.

In our study, serum phosphate levels were significantly associated with CAC progression, and diabetes and eGFR showed borderline significance.

Genotypic and allelic comparisons from GWAS with a p -value between 0.05 and 5 × 10 −8 had a borderline significance and were separately organized in Table 9 . 2.4.

Additionally, an increased percentage of eosinophils showed borderline significance as a treatment failure predictor in the multivariate analysis.

recently reported a lower frequency of iatrogenic hypopituitarism in patients with acromegaly undergoing transsphenoidal surgery than in non-acromegalic subjects, although this finding demonstrated only borderline significance on multivariate analysis [ 10 ].

Indeed, after adjusting for age, previous IVF cycles were associated to a higher risk of unavailability of embryos for the ET procedure with borderline significance (RR 1.58, 95% CI 0.96–2.59), while exercising for ≥5 h per week was associated to a higher risk of not achieving clinical pregnancy (RR 1.19, 95% CI 1.02–1.39) compared to exercising for <2 h per week.

In a recent meta-analysis, including all RCTs in patients undergoing various types of abdominal surgery published between 1966 and 2017, a reduction in overall postoperative morbidity in the prehabilitation group (OR 0.63, 95%CI 0.46–0.87) with a composite pulmonary morbidity endpoint (OR 0.40, 95%CI 0.23–0.68), and borderline significance for reduction in LOS was seen [ 46 ].

vivax compared with microscopy and qPCR, but only borderline significance with P. falciparum and microscopy.

The differences in injuries requiring medical attention between males and females were not statistically significant; only cultivating tasks showed a borderline significance with a higher proportion for males than females (25.8% in males, 5.6% in females).

In models using log-transformed MG53, hirsutism and follicle count remained inversely associated with MG53, whereas the positive association with SHBG was attenuated to borderline significance.

( 50 ) reported that serum VEGF levels up-regulated in women with EP compared to those who had intrauterine pregnancies, although there was only borderline significance between tubal EP and failed intrauterine pregnancy.

Significance values were similar for ANOVA and Wilcoxon tests, although a non-parametric test showed borderline significance effect on CXCL8 rather than a non-significant result.

In addition, given the large number of measured compounds and generally borderline significance level of our observed findings, we cannot rule out the possibility that some of the observed associations may have arisen due to chance, although it is worth noting that associations with oxychlordane, trans -nonachlor, and p,p ′-DDE have been previously reported.

5D , borderline significance) and RFS ( Fig. 5E ).

Statistical significance in this study was set at P < 0.05, with borderline significance considered for P values of 0.05 to 0.07.

Therefore, our findings, although they reached only borderline significance, are in line with the results of Drechsler et al. who could demonstrate a strong correlation of low homoarginine concentrations with prevalence of left ventricular hypertrophy as well as congestive heart failure and high levels of brain natriuretic peptide in patients with diabetes under haemodialysis [ 36 ].

However, the borderline significance disappeared after adjustment for age and sex (not depicted).
