“trending towards significance”

After 4 months, both TC and LDL-C significantly decreased by 8.8% and 11.5%, respectively, along with a 5.5% increase in HDL-C which was trending towards significance.

This may be one of the reasons why we did not observe a famous face advantage in accuracy for both younger and age-matched participants, although significant effects could be found in RTs for younger participants (trending towards significance for age-matched).

Sphingosine concentrations of C37:2, C40:1, C45 and C45:1 were also lower and trending towards significance.

We observed upon quantification of the ratio of H3K27me3 to H3 in a set of biological triplicates that 2i mESCs treated with Chiron-124 lost 39% global H3K27me3 modification, trending towards significance ( S8 Fig ).

This supports our initial univariate analysis of the Rwanda cohort since there were a number of additional biomarkers that were trending towards significance (see Additional file 6 : Figure S2).

Moreover, individuals who converted from A+T- to A+T+ showed an interaction effect of baseline Aβ laterality on tau laterality over time, only trending towards significance at Braak III-IV (β = 0.081, 95%CI = [0.015; 0.147], p Bonf = 0.051) and V-VI (β = 0.093, 95%CI = [0.014; 0.171], p Bonf = 0.061).

2 , bottom right); this relationship was trending towards significance, p corr = 0.062 following correction for multiple comparisons across emotion (Bonferroni-corrected).

The authors are particularly lenient with describing effects as 'trending towards significance'.

As expected, the HRs for either NSD1 (low vs high expression and low vs mid expression), NSD2 (low vs high expression), and NSD3 (low vs high expression and low vs mid expression) were statistically significant, with NSD2 (low vs mid expression) trending towards significance.

As shown in Table 5 , the two clusters showed significantly different values in CV1, CV2, IV1 and IV2 with CV3 and IV3 trending towards significance.

For all comparisons, P (or q ) values were considered significant if <0.05, and trending towards significance if 0.05 < P (or q ) < 0.1.

Note that while some display statistically significant correlations, many are highly trending towards significance.

What is interesting here is that the significant predictors in the second model, other than condition, were stationary gaze entropy and fixation rate, with contribution from driving duration only trending towards significance.

Despite these limitations, each study in this review demonstrated several associations between sarcopenia and certain postoperative complications, which admittedly did differ, but were all trending towards significance.

Renal function, specifically eGFR, was inversely correlated with change in fat mass at 6 months, trending towards significance at 6-week follow-up.

The authors combined those taking three drugs—citalopram ( n = 24), trazodone ( n = 64) and sertraline ( n = 37)—that were trending towards significance into one category, the so-called “antiviral serotine reuptake inhibitors” and found that there was greater protection from detectable HIV RNA in the CSF (OR: 0.56, p = 0.02).

In females, we found a slight decrease in GluA2 surface levels, trending towards significance.

Trait autism, while trending towards significance, was not a significant predictor after correction (see Table 6 for details).

We had a few findings that were trending towards significance for the DCD group (correlations between sensory over-responsivity and social skills, aggressive behavior, and emotional withdrawal/depression, and a group difference between DCD and ASD for self-injurious behaviors) that may have been significant with a larger sample size, as indicated by the large effect sizes.

However, the absolute change was somewhat reduced, and for most genes tested the changes were at best trending towards significance.

multiply p-values by three), there are some small changes from significant to only trending towards significance, but these changes don’t affect any core results.

All tests were two-sided and a p -value of 0.05 or less was considered statistically significant, while a p -value of 0.1 to 0.05 was considered as trending towards significance. 3 Results 3.1 Baseline characteristics Of the 129 women enrolled in Zamboney, 101 had samples available for analysis in the current study.

I would strongly suggest the authors do not claim that they observe “weak trends”, which here appears to mean the same thing as “trending towards significance”.

For the proportion of reported values meeting at least 7,500 steps/day, significant negative correlations were apparent with changes in total cholesterol and triglycerides, while the negative correlation with change in glucose was trending towards significance (r = −0.16, -0.15, and −0.13, respectively).

BMI (p=0.08) and mass (p=0.11) were trending towards significance, although with weak negative correlations.
