“borderline significant”

illustrated a borderline significant difference of 5% higher clinical pregnancy rate in women stimulated with hFSH compared with rFSH. 7 Selman et al. 8 demonstrated that the combination of hFSH/rFSH for ovarian stimulation had a positive effect on follicular development, oocyte quality, embryo development, and clinical outcome in patients with repeated IVF failures.

In addition, there was a difference between samples stored for 6 months and samples thawed three times, but it was only borderline significant ( Table 1 ). 4.4 Storage time No statistically significant differences were found when analyzing samples stored at 4 °C compared to samples stored frozen for 24 h or six months.

A particularly strong association was noted in the high BMI subgroup (≥24), where the hazard ratio for death was 0.27 (95% CI: 0.09–0.83; P = 0.02), with a borderline significant interaction P value of 0.06, suggesting that higher body mass might amplify the protective effect of TSH.

At baseline, despite randomization, women with PCOS randomized to metformin (PCOS-met) had higher systolic and diastolic blood pressure, and had a borderline significant higher BMI, compared with those in the placebo group (PCOS-plac).

Moreover, the perceived mortality difference at 28 days was borderline significant, as the statistical significance would have been lost if one patient would have had a different 28-day mortality outcome (fragility index of 1).

[ 6 – 8 ] A meta-analysis [ 9 ] of 13 cohort studies recently published had found a borderline significant inverse association between aspirin use and breast cancer risk.

There was a borderline significant increase in white blood cell count among cancer patients (Table 1 ).

The probability values of the normal probability tests in the Table show that the deviations from normality are only borderline significant.

In SMR-associated SNPs, only DHS enrichment was significant for eQTL and borderline significant for sQTL ( Supplementary Table 9 ).

Although none of the parent-of-origin eQTLs met criteria for significance after correcting for multiple testing, the SNP on chromosome 9 with opposite POEs on total cholesterol levels was borderline significant as an opposite parent-of-origin eQTL for POLR1E , and possible for three other genes at the same locus ( PAX5 , FBXO10 , and FRMPD1 ).

Some borderline significant results were obtained for rare PON3 variants when comparing patients without inflammation or fibrosis to those with varying stages of these liver injury parameters.

Ultimately, the proportion of older persons not exposed to polypharmacy increased by 0.36% per year (95%CI: [0.02 to 0.70]), although this change was borderline significant ( p -value for trend = 0.064).

At 4 months this difference was borderline significant (trend) (Figure 4 ).

Compared with normal weight women, significant or borderline significant increased risks of BC mortality were only observed for morbidly obese (≥40 kg/m 2 ) women and not for women in other obesity categories [ 38 ].

A borderline significant HR of 0.89 (95% CI, 0.78; 1.01) was found in the upper versus lower quintile of intake (Fig. 1 ) [ 25 ••].

In one study, higher energy intake at breakfast was associated with lower hypertension prevalence but not 10-year incidence, and higher energy intake in the evening was associated with higher hypertension incidence, which remained borderline significant after adjustment for baseline BMI [ 21 ].

Our analysis revealed a borderline significant association between cardiovascular disease and fall risk.

We did detect a slight excess of SNPs with borderline significant P -values, and our most associated SNPs suggest multiple independent signals clustered in the same genomic region.

In sensitivity analysis 3 that employed the propensity score approach and further matched distance between HCC diagnosis and initiation of the two compared drugs, SGLT2 inhibitor use was not statistically significant and long duration of SGLT2 inhibitor use was only borderline significant ( Table 3 ).

However, this violation is mainly important when comparing significance tests of different regression lines, and particularly so for results that are borderline significant.

The ECR-RS scores were borderline significant.

The trial was not powered to detect differences in clinical outcomes, but we found an unexpected, borderline significant reduction of all cause mortality at term equivalent age in the NIRS group.

We previously showed that pAkt-n was borderline significant as a predictive factor of tamoxifen response in this cohort (Bostner et al. 2013 ).

Statistical analysis showed that NES RNA expression was similar in low-dose and 0-dose groups on Days 0, 2, 6, 10, and 12; however, the difference in RNA expression between the groups was statistically significant on Day 8 and borderline significant on Day 4 ( Table 3 ).

Due to the larger variance two associations (sitting bouts with the baseline and MVPA with the slope) went from borderline significant to borderline non-significant. 3.2.
