“borderline significant”

As the time between harvest and testing had a borderline significant effect on the APC of the harvest samples, we attempted to “normalize” for this effect in the reduced P model by assuming (i) all harvest samples used in the reduced P model had a time from harvest until testing of 36.75 h (i.e., the median time from harvest until testing) and (ii) each additional hour between harvest until testing increased APC by 0.01 log 10 CFU/g (based on the H model).

This could explain why the difference in z -scores between the sextuple and less mutated haplotypes was only borderline significant ( Table 2 ).

However, there was only a borderline significant increase in the female subjects with both polymorphisms of the TGF-β1 SNP (−509 T/T) and IL-10 SNP (+1927 C/C + A/C) genotypes and the results showed a 0.4220 higher femoral neck T-score in these patients than in any other group ( p = 0.0559).

On the basis of the P values obtained from the Wilcoxon test, we reclassified the hits as follows—‘high confidence', if Wilcoxon test P <0.05 (significant); ‘medium confidence', if Wilcoxon test P =0.057 (borderline significant); and ‘low confidence' (not significant), if Wilcoxon test P >0.057.
