In the literature

However, after controlling for other potential confounding factors, the difference of weaning for the both groups only reached borderline significance in both pre-PSM and post-PSM samples, indicating that the weaning rate was relatively lower for the tracheostomy group, but the difference was not very significant.
One study that did report an adverse effect looked at US male veterans and showed that those living within 50 m of major roads had a increased risk of persistent wheeze, with a significant odds ratio of 1.7 for heavily trafficked roads (> = 10,000 vehicles a day), but a smaller effect (OR = 1.3) which reached borderline significance when all major roads were considered[ 1 ].
In this regard, it should be noted that although body weight and BMI reached borderline significance, these reductions were modest (from 68.9±13.3 kg to 68.1±13.2 kg, and from 28.4±5.0 kg/m 2 to 27.9±4.8 kg/m 2 , respectively), and with small effect sizes (0.05 and 0.09, respectively), while the reduction in WC was more compelling ( P <0.001) and with larger effect size (from 98.3±13.2 cm to 94.6±12.6 cm; effect size =0.30).
At the level of species within orders, however, we found a negative relationship that reached borderline significance: species from smaller orders tended to have a higher mean research effort than species from larger orders (Spearman rho between the number of species per order and the average number of publications per species within each order = −0.354, p = 0.055, Figure 2b ).

Although the primary outcome reached borderline significance, a post hoc analysis adjusted to the dose of intravenous furosemide showed a statistically significant result, which is consistent with the hypothesis of synergy when adding HCTZ to furosemide, with a clinically relevant effect on daily weight loss.
For early treatment versus none, highly consistent, protective point estimates were also generated for most comparisons in adults and children, but failed to reach a statistical significance for IRP [possibly due to type II errors (sample size) although they reached borderline significance for ‘any pneumonia’ (all cases)].
