In the literature

Some little changes in the results were observed for the associations between work-related factors and sickness presenteeism duration in the sensitivity analysis after the exclusion of employees who changed jobs between 2013 and 2016 (some factors borderline significant became non-significant and vice versa).
This borderline significant finding aligns conceptually with the Broaden-and-Build Theory ( Fredrickson, 2001 ), which posits that psychological resilience—through the cultivation of positive emotional states—expands cognitive-behavioral repertoires and constructs enduring personal resources, including enhanced academic motivation.
Body weight status did not have an association with any outcome in these models. When considering all lifestyle behaviors simultaneously, only meeting recommendations for milk and alternatives, and meat and alternatives remained significantly associated with meeting expectations for mathematics; meeting recommendations for free sugars was borderline significant (Table 2 , Model 2: OR: 1.20 [95% CI: 0.99, 1.45]).
Recent meta-analyses found a borderline significant association between PARP1 Val762Ala polymorphism and overall cancer risk, although after stratification by cancer types, the polymorphism could predispose to gastric cancer, thyroid cancer and cervical cancer, in an Asian population, but not in Caucasian and African populations ( 109 , 110 ).
Patients with persisting hypercalcemia during the follow up showed a significantly worse graft (HR 2.22, 95% CI 1.19–4.17, p = 0.013) and overall survival (HR 2.08, 95% CI 1.05–4.17, p = 0.036), as well as worse death-censored graft loss (HR 3.23; 95% CI 0.88–12.5; p = 0.078), although this was only borderline significant.
An exception was a borderline significant lower mean sCD36 level in night-shift samples collected among experienced night workers compared to day samples during a day shift of the same workers (-14.6%; 95% CI: -27.2%, -0.1%), while the mean sCD36 level among these samples in recent night workers was non-significantly elevated (29.9% (-14.0%, 96.3%) ( Table 3 ).
In sensitivity analyses with further adjustment for estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) and diabetic retinopathy, the inverse association between the FT3/FT4 ratio and advanced DN was attenuated and became borderline significant, whereas the association for FT3 remained robust.
Although not statistically significant, it is worth noting that the risk of an e-scooter-related injury was nearly twice as great for crashes that occurred on the sidewalk and the shoulder or vehicle lane of a neighborhood street, in reference to the bike lane (see Table 3 for the borderline significant results).
