“borderline significant”

In a study performed on lung cancer patients treated with RT between 1996 and 2009, arrhythmic events showed borderline significant associations with the whole heart dose and right atrium doses, but not with left ventricle or left atrium doses ( 16 ).

No statistically significant differences were observed in the two groups, but at ICU admission patients in the early stepping verticalization group tended to have a more compromised GCS (p = 0.024, borderline significant after Benjamini-Hochberg adjustment).

Therefore, given that the previous study was better powered, and the interactions terms with intrinsic and extrinsic age acceleration in this study were borderline significant, it is possible that there would be a significant interaction between PBB and sex in a larger study population, with men being more susceptible to higher age acceleration from PBB exposure.

In the 9–11 group, only WC among the other risk factors for MetS had a borderline significant association with higher IR.

The correlation was borderline significant for ileum ( P : 0.06, r = 0.29, 95% CI = [−0.02 to 0.55]) but non‐significant for stomach ( P : 0.7, r = 0.05, 95% CI = [−0.24 to 0.34]).

Even in the present study population we observed a borderline significant association between irisin and lipid profile in over 500 women arguing for the use of larger study population.

In the previously reported pooled analysis of employees biologically monitored for BL from Finland, UK and US there were statistically significant positive trends using the log of each worker’s maximum BL value for mortality from lung cancer, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), stroke and heart disease, while borderline significant trend were found for mortality from bladder cancer, brain cancer and larynx cancer ( 11 ).

thine, xanthine and MDA excretion, FE-N-Alb-P and volume, but decrease of urinary concentration of Na, total Mg and F-Mg, total Cit and complexed Cit, uric acid, Ox, supersaturation with uric acid; most importantly, there was unchanged urinary Ca/Pi with dramatic increase of HAP in association with borderline significant decrease of CaOx supersaturation and significant increase of the number of SB patients.

The incidence of initial and recurrent neuropathic diabetic foot ulcers appeared reduced post-DNS relative to the contralateral foot (borderline significant).

There is, however, more indication of an effect in cohort studies, in studies in Sweden or Norway, and in studies of snuff, where fixed-effect estimates of the RR associated with ST exposure are all significant or borderline significant (cohort 1.75 95% CI 1.20–2.54, Sweden or Norway 1.78, 1.11–2.85, and snuff 1.54, 1.00–2.37).

Troponin T level showed only a borderline significant relationship for WMH volume and no other brain damage factors. 60 Growth differentiation factor‐15 (GDF‐15) is another cardiac stress biomarker introduced as a predictor of cardiovascular diseases and HF. 61 In a Framingham Offspring study of 3374 individuals without stroke and dementia, higher levels of GDF‐15 were associated with lower TBV and higher WMH volume.

P values <.05 were considered statistically significant, whereas P values between .05 and .10 were considered borderline significant.

The CP2 feature correlated highly with disease free survival, whereas the variance of the Voronoï pavements was borderline significant.

A borderline significant reduction in pain intensity has been demonstrated. 140 Topical clonidine (0.1% gel) has been evaluated in a Phase II, double-blind RCT in 166 subjects with DPN.

The borderline significant p-value of this result leaves open the possibility that the regimen had no overall efficacy.

In addition, a borderline significant difference in ES was observed between male and female students.

Also noted as downstream effects were “decreased metastasis of tumor cells”, “decreased tumor growth”, and “decreased angiogenesis”, but the scores ranged from −1.52 to −1.71 (borderline significant).

A similar result was found with chronic renal insufficiency, and there was a borderline significant interaction with age at admission.

found a borderline significant difference between the number of patients with opioid prescription at discharge between recurrent acute pancreatitis and first‐time acute pancreatitis, whereas there was a significant difference between the groups in the study by Ahmed et al.

In addition to the association of LTA with critical COVID‐19, prior genetic association studies in a Mexican population have shown rs909253 (A > G) in LTA (as well as in SNPs in the related cytokine, TNF ) associated with increased susceptibility to severe influenza A/H1N1, as well as a borderline significant association with mortality [ 31 , 32 ].

Among 34 candidate variables, 11 were statistically significant and one borderline significant.

The interaction between diabetes and time suggests that the decline in HRQL over time was slightly larger in individuals with diabetes, however, the interaction term was only borderline significant.

Another study from Korea shows a borderline significant positive correlation between leptin level and CAN score [ 16 ].

For three RF a significant or borderline significant difference in expression between T1 and T2 (APOBEC3G, SLFN11) and T1 and T3 (MX2) was observed.

An elevated risk of asbestosis was also observed for the ECSOD 213Arg/Gly genotype, CAT −262 TT genotype and iNOS LL genotype, but the results were not significant or borderline significant [ 6 – 8 ].
