“borderline significant”

Comparatively low RR in the context of infectious diseases, as well as borderline significant p values need to be evaluated in view of the imprecise exposure assessment.

Excess of liver mortality was higher in patients with CD4 counts at entry below 200 cells compared to those above 350 (eHR: 6.49, 95% CI 1.21–34.84) and in HCV-coinfected patients (eHR: 3.85, 95% CI 0.85– 17.37), although it was borderline significant.

South Asian (IRR 0.67 95% CI 0.42–0.77) and South-East Asian (IRR 0.71 95% CI 0.60–0.84) women aged 20–75 years also had lower rates of ER+ tumors compared to the non-immigrant reference group, and South Asian women had a higher rate of ER- tumors, however only borderline significant (IRR 1.36 95% CI 1.00–1.85).

The production system exhibited a borderline significant association with SRLV seropositivity; animals in non-extensive systems were approximately three times more likely to be infected than those in extensive systems.

While P value of <0.05 was considered as borderline significant, results were only regarded as significant if the P values fell below 0.01, to allow for the effect of multiple comparisons. 3.

These two sites showed significant or borderline significant results with the additional site-scanning methods (MMBootstrap and Model-based) ( Supplementary Table S3 ).

Many of these associations are not significant or only borderline significant (Figure 4 and Supplementary Table S8 ).

The linear trend tests in all three models were borderline significant.

This complies with studies of LA function in healthy athletes, showing minute differences between athletes and non-athletic controls with borderline significant lower reservoir strain and no difference in contractile strain, despite a highly significant difference in LAVI max . 25 Despite a higher indexed stroke volume, GLS was lower in athletes, reflecting that a larger ventricle demands less deformation to produce the same stroke volume.

It showed a borderline significant drop in injury rates of 25% after control for periods of heavy and light construction work (OR: 0.75, 95% CI: 0.57–0.99).

After further adjustments for metabolic syndrome components, fasting insulin, and hs-CRP were made, the differences in the IMT-mean of the cystatin C levels became borderline significant and remained significant across albuminuria categories.

In the presence of IGF-I, adiposity indices (waist circumference), insulin sensitivity (Matsuda index) and ghrelin secretion (ghrelin AUC/100.000), only ghrelin AUC remained a significant predictor for fasting GH and Peak GH, and was borderline significant for GH AUC ( Table 3 ).

In addition, carriers of the APOE C-C (ε4 isoform) haplotype had significantly increased LDL-C (borderline significant in crude model and strongly significant in adjusted model) and TC (in the adjusted model); whereas, APOE T-T (ε2) carriers had significantly decreased levels of LDL-C and TC (in adjusted models only).

The linear trend was borderline significant (P for trend = 0.07).

However, the association between chemerin and CVD as the cause of death was borderline significant when SHIP-START-1 was considered alone.

The borderline significant effect modification indicating greater improvements in disability in people with higher receipt of community support may reflect the impact of reduced social exclusion.

In the patients with stage IV NSCLC with SCC-NOS histology, radiotherapy was associated with significantly improved 3-month survival in the matched cohort and borderline significant results at 6 months, while 1-year survival was similar between groups.

We noted that seven borderline significant autosomal genes were also involved in one of the three represented signatures, and therefore added them to the final list of differentially expressed genes.

However, women with high social support from friends and neighbors showed a higher CRP level as CES-D scores increased, at the statistically borderline significant level ( Table 4 ).

None of the genes showed a significant interaction between treatment and inbreeding ( table 1 ). Of the 10 genes studied, after correction for multiple testing, only the stress-related gene HSP75 shows a borderline significant three-way interaction between tissue, treatment and inbreeding (lme{tissue*treatment*inbreeding}, figure 3 , table 1 ).

Nine independent studies [ 8 , 9 , 10 , 19 , 20 , 21 , 22 , 23 , 24 ] investigated the relationship between fruit intake and lung cancer risk in never smokers, and a higher fruit consumption showed a borderline significant association (RR = 0.83, 95% CI: 0.66, 1.06; I 2 = 27.2%, p for heterogeneity = 0.177).

Finally, correct memory saccades were the only oculomotor parameter associated with verbal memory, strongly correlated with Total Free and Delayed Recall and borderline significant to visual recall in Alzheimer's disease patients.

There was a borderline significant association between NOD2 risk variants and development of decompensation and/or jaundice during follow‐up [HR 2.65 (95% CI 0.98–7.17)]. 4 Discussion This study shows that patients with compensated cirrhosis and varices and NOD2 risk variants have an increased incidence of first decompensation compared to patients with compensated cirrhosis who do not carry these risk variants.

The M-PLS-DA model A difference versus B difference was only a borderline significant with a P -value close to 0.05 so arguably the different effects of the PS-enriched drink A and the PS-enriched drink B on the serum lipidome are statistically not so strong.

0.30%, p = 0.05), however, these results were only borderline significant and may be accidental due to the small number of patients in each group.
