“borderline significant”

Additionally, THBS1 expression had a borderline significant correlation with infiltrating levels of CD4 + T cells; however, this was not present in macrophages and neutrophils ( Fig. 6E ).

However, for these three sites, the effect of EDI at the beginning of the follow-up was borderline significant, with the lower bound of the 95% CI close to 1.00.

Interestingly, we observed a borderline significant association between dysbiosis and increased levels of immature EPCs without OCN expression.

The association was attenuated but remained borderline significant (β=0.05 (95% CI 0.00 to 0.10)) after further adjustment for social class, education, marital status, body mass index, physical activity, smoking, alcohol intake, self-reported health, pre-existing diseases, systolic blood pressure, hypnotic drug use, depression and in women-only hormone replacement therapy use.

4 These findings are similar to those in this study, except that the statistical significance for levels of MIP-1α ( P = .07) and TNF-α ( P = .06) were borderline significant.

Altogether, the decreased recurrence rates (RR 0.94, 95% CI: 0.87–1.01; 2p=0.08), the distant recurrence rates (0.92, 95% CI: 0.85–0.99; 2p=0.03) and breast cancer mortality (RR 0.91, 95% CI: 0.83–0.99; 2p=0.04) were defined as borderline significant.

As the frequentist approach taken in our analyses resulted in multiple borderline significant effects (see below), we added a Bayesian analysis follow-up approach (following Keysers et al.

As shown in Table 2 and Figure 2 , on the one hand, we observed weak, borderline significant correlation between media use of all kinds and sleep quality scores (R=0.08 to 0.20).

P -values ≤0.05 were considered statistically significant, but because of the small sample size P -values between 0.05 and 0.1 are reported as borderline significant.

“borderline significant” p.21) or asterisks when referring to them in the text.

When the Met/Met and Val/Met genotypes were pooled, a borderline significant tendency to lower mortality caused by non-ischemic heart diseases was found among individuals with Val/Val genotype (n = 2) compared to those with other genotypes (n = 32) ( p = 0.06, rank-log test).

( 28 ) Our findings showed that being born in Australia led to poorer treatment outcomes compared with cases who were born overseas, although these results were borderline significant.

In the same study, we found a borderline significant interaction term for the association of participants with diabetes and subclinical hypothyroidism with heart rate variability. 24 Several studies evaluated the association of participants with diabetes and subclinical hypothyroidism with more complications of diabetes in patients with both diseases with heterogeneous findings.

However, since this difference was only borderline significant, the results are not conclusive.

The estimated change in HAZ for a 1% increase in the proportion of sick days was −0.002 (95% CI: [−0.004, 0.000]), while the estimate in WAZ was lower and borderline significant and the estimate in WHZ was negligible (WAZ change: −0.0002, WHZ change: −0.001).

A borderline significant interaction was found between the age at hyperlipidemia diagnosis and lipid-lowering treatment for CVD death ( P interaction = 0.07) (Supplementary Table 3), that the beneficial effect of fenofibrate in reducing CVD death was observed only in the early-diagnosed (HR 0.47; 95% CI 0.30–0.74; P = 0.001), but not in the late-diagnosed (HR 0.87; 95% CI 0.55–1.40; P = 0.573) hyperlipidemia group.

Subscale scores for Information Exchange and Interpersonal Relationship domains, but not Disrespect and Abuse, followed a similar pattern of significant or borderline significant associations with these predictive validity variables (Table 4 ).

To summarize, with a focus on randomized controlled studies, a recent systematic review and meta-analysis ( 128 ) has shown that resistance training can reduce CRP in older adults (standard mean difference or SMD=-0.61 [95%CI -0.83 to -0.31], p<0.001) and IL-6 (SMD=-0.19 [95%CI -0.42 to 0.02], p=0.07, statistically borderline significant), whilst no changes in TNF-α level could be detected.

The pre-operative mRS was initially a significant predictor of survival time, becoming borderline significant after adjustment.

Second, while the study was sufficiently powered and a number of outcome variables were statistically significant, we found borderline significant levels with moderate to large effect sizes suggesting that having a larger n-size may have revealed more significant and consistent findings between GLM and mean change analysis with 95% CI’s.

One SNP, rs4939827, showed borderline significant deviance and was excluded from further analyses.

In the subgroup analysis, the risk associated with MHO participants was significant in cohort studies (OR = 1.47, 95% CI [1.15,1.87], I 2 = 0%), and borderline significant in cross-sectional studies.

This variable if anything indicates that the stock price of firms operating in sectors whose activity tends to be concentrated in states with a high number of reported COVID-19 cases was not adversely affected, although the coefficient is only borderline significant.

The different effect of treatment for BRCA-like and non-BRCA-like tumors was borderline significant when the analysis was stratified for triple-negative and luminal breast cancer ( p interaction was 0.072 and 0.07, respectively) (Table 5 and Fig. 1 ).

An OS difference between the treatment groups was statistically significant among patients with stage II cardiac disease, and borderline significant for stage IIIA but not for cardiac stage IIIB.
