“of borderline significance”

The power to identify risk factors for prevalent TB was limited by the success of the intervention, leading to low point prevalence, but HIV infection and smoking were of borderline significance on multivariate analysis when all TB cases (including culture negative) were included.

DDT showed a significant trend for NHL risk with life-time days of use RR = 1.0 (ref), 1.3 (0.9–1.8), 1.1 (0.7–1.7), 1.7 (1.1–2.6); p trend = 0.02, while the intensity weighted lifetime days of use of DDT was of borderline significance: RR = 1.0 (ref), 1.2 (0.8–1.8), 1.1 (0.8–1.7), 1.6 (1.0–2.3); p trend = 0.06.

FDR p-values <0.05 differ significantly between diagnostic groups; however, because this is an exploratory hypothesis generating study of a small sample size, after stratification by gender and tumor histological subtype, FDR p-values between 0.10 and 0.05 were considered to be of borderline significance. 3.

We also saw enrichment for the GO term angiogenesis in the same cluster, albeit of borderline significance.

In Wales urgent admissions rose equally across all quintiles with the exception of a faster rise of borderline significance in admissions for CYP from the next-to-least-deprived quintile relative to the least deprived quintile (0.43/1000 per year [0.01, 0.85)], Table 3 .

By multivariate analysis, cirrhosis (HR 21.75; 95% CI 5.62 to 84.18) was the only independent risk factor, while concomitant chronic viral hepatitis was of borderline significance (HR 7.04; 95% CI 0.94 to 52.81)(Table 7 ).

Multivariate regression analysis taking into account key determinant factors of AC identified capsular effraction (OR = 2.31, p = 0.028) and involved SN > 2(OR = 8.16, p = 0.081) as significant or of borderline significance predictors of NSN involvement (Table 6 ) .

For an interquartile range increase in specific gravity-adjusted monoethyl phthalate (MEP) level, the comet extent increased significantly by 3.6 micro m [95% confidence interval (95% CI), 0.74-6.47]; the TDM also increased 1.2 micro m (95% CI, -0.05 to 2.38) but was of borderline significance.

14 Given the limitation of borderline significance due to the inadequate recruitment related to the COVID-19 pandemic, the research team decided to recruit more participants with clinical setting as a major comparison for this work, and hence the aim of this project.

As expected, significantly higher urinary Blood Group H disaccharide was found in FUT2 secretors; an increase was also observed in plasma but was only of borderline significance, presumably due to low overall concentrations.

Although the p -value indicated a significant reduction in AEs with acupuncture, the upper limit of the confidence interval included 1(RR = 0.71; 95% CI 0.49 to 1.01; p < 0.05), suggesting that the observed difference was of borderline significance.

The sentence has been amended by pointing out that numbers are small and the aOR from the sensitivity analysis have been added so that the readers can see the association for hypertension is of borderline significance: Line 222-223: “In the sensitivity analysis, there was some evidence that asthma and hypertension specifically increased the risk of admission, although the numbers in some groups were small (aOR 2.12, 95% CI 1.25-3.58 and aOR 3.63, 95% CI 0.99 – 13.30 respectively, Table S3).” line 255 when noting symptomatic SARS and pregnancy loss less than 24 weeks , if the authors do not wish to add the historical comparison can they explain why that is not used.

Somewhat in contrast to the overall series, female sex correlated with better survival and volumetric findings were of borderline significance i.e., a larger tumor load predicted an adverse prognosis.

Multivariable Cox regression modeling was used to determine whether the association between these five proteins with outcome was independent of potential confounders, including age, gender, race, stage (IA and IB), and smoking status (Table 2 ): IL-6 (HR, 2.34; 95% CI, 1.14-4.79) and IL-17A (HR, 2.10; 95% CI, 1.02-4.32) were independently associated with outcome, CRP (HR, 1.81; 95% CI, 0.90-3.65); was of borderline significance after adjustment for race, which is possibly a reflection of the differential expression of CRP by race [ 25 ].

Lower levels of CP ratio were also detected in umbilical cord of fetuses exposed to parental smoking, however this finding was of borderline significance, as well (0.105).

However, in cases of borderline significance, we also assessed the effects with males and females combined.

The deprivation gap of −5% that has arisen for men diagnosed in the late 1990s is of borderline significance.

In particular, the age of our patient is 27, which has been reported to be of borderline significance in terms of VTE development.

Male patients were also more likely to experience poor outcomes but this result was of borderline significance after adjustment (aOR 1.86; 95% CI 0.96–3.64; p 0.07).

In the present study, khat users were more likely to be ANA positive than nonusers, however, numbers were small and the increased proportion of ANA positive khat users compared to nonusers was of borderline significance, and hence the observed association is at best dubious.

Though the trial found a trend towards fewer cardiovascular outcomes, favouring candesartan, it was moderate and of borderline significance.

A variant of borderline significance has been reported in the putative oncogene AURKA (earlier known as STK15 ) ( Dicioccio et al , 2004 ).

The SIR for concordant rectal cancer in offspring and parents was 1.77 and that among siblings was 1.96, of borderline significance.

The experimental group had a shorter I-III interval of auditory brainstem responses with 16-kHz tone burst stimulation than the control group that was of borderline significance.

No difference in overall survival was then observed when comparing patients with t(8;21) alone versus patients with additional cytogenetic abnormalities the only possible exception being loss of the Y chromosome that was associated with an improved survival of borderline significance in the MRC study.
