In the literature

Linear regression analyses for PWV and C-SBP results adjusted for age, sex, and race/ethnicity in relation to several markers of glucose homeostasis and CKD did not identify any significant associations with the exception of a marginally statistically significant and modest association between PWV and urine albumin-to-creatinine ratio (linear regression estimate ± SE, 0.001 ± 0.0006; P-value 0.046).
Two issues make this conclusion uncertain: (1) The probability of detection was very low, and only marginally statistically significant, (2) the paper does not provide a model that accounts for performance in both the single-photon detection task and the classical psychophysics task, which spans flash strengths in which detection performance ranges from chance to the near-perfect level.
In the fully adjusted model (model 4), participants classified as biologically older at baseline, compared to those classified as biologically younger, had a 20.2% increased risk (OR = 1.202, 95% CI: 1.020, 1.417) of developing depression. In the stratification analyses, a marginally statistically significant modification effect for sex was identified in the longitudinal association between baseline biological aging acceleration and later depression.
Despite clopidogrel’s superior efficacy and favorable safety profile, aspirin remains recommended due to its marginally statistically significant inferiority and cost-effectiveness; approximately 200 patients must use clopidogrel instead of aspirin for 1 year to prevent a single vascular event.
Patients receiving IC also had a lower risk of distant metastasis (HR, 0.684; 95% CI, 0.446-1.048; P = 0.081) and locoregional relapse (HR, 0.634; 95% CI, 0.378-1.063; P = 0.084), and this difference was marginally statistically significant.
Combination of the OncoHepa test and the ADV score Because univariate analyses using OncoHepa findings or the ADV score with a 4log cutoff showed marginally statistically significant differences, we considered that these parameters might be independent prognostic factors and performed multivariate analyses for tumor recurrence and patient survival ( Table 3 ).
24 In the second placebo-controlled trial by the same group on 27 children, a marginally statistically significant improvement was seen with divalproex sodium compared with placebo in reducing irritability when measured by the ABC scale, but no such significant reduction in irritability (we are, however, not aware of any irritability measure in OAS-M) was found when measured by OAS-M. 25 This finding did not change when IQ difference was controlled for.
Bootstrap analysis suggests a usable sample size of 360 (180 each for the treatment and control condition) is needed to identify marginally statistically significant reductions associated with such interventions, which translates to about 237 per group given the attrition and outlier rates observed among the online consumer panel used in this pilot study.
