Example: "The new policy sets a significantly lower threshold for eligibility, allowing more individuals to qualify for assistance."
Alternatives: "a markedly reduced threshold" or "a considerably lower limit."
Compared with control subjects, MS patients had a significantly lower threshold in tapping force (p =.026), yet their evoked reflex torque was significantly higher (p =.033).
The analysis also showed that there was a significantly lower threshold in the No-tr group compared with the SA group after treatment of 3D (P = 0.03) and 3D6d (P = 0.01).
A significantly lower threshold existed after treatment of 1D, 3D, and 3D6d in the SA and No-tr groups compared with those in the HA group (HA versus SA, P = 0.04; HA versus No-tr, P = 0.01 for 1D; HA versus SA, P < 0.001; HA versus No-tr, P <0.001 for 3D; HA versus SA, P <0.001; HA versus No-tr, P = 0.001 for 3D6d).
Thus, MSC treated eyes had significantly lower threshold than untreated eyes (p<0.05), indicating a convincing degree of functional preservation (Figure 2B).
Interestingly, our data demonstrated a significant decline in pain threshold across six algometry trials where the 3rd, 4th, 5th and 6th trials showed significantly lower threshold than the 1st and 2nd PPTs, which did not occur following the intervention.
Minocycline treatments of 1.2 mg/kg and 1.5 mg/kg resulted in significantly lower threshold increases compared to 0 mg/kg, indicating protection of hearing loss between 6 kHz and 19 kHz.
Looking at odor thresholds, we observed a significant time-by-group interaction with significantly lower thresholds in females tested during their follicular phase than during their luteal phase, which has been reported before (Grillo et al. 2001; Navarrete-Palacios et al. 2003a).
A significantly lower reflex threshold, higher amplitude and lower TST was found in MOH patients before detoxification in comparison with episodic migraine and controls [120].
It also showed a significantly lower pain threshold in patients with a less than 40 mm range of vertical mandibular opening.
There was evidence of significant between observer bias when scoring lesions from photographs; observer 3 had a significantly lower mean threshold (−0.437) compared with observers 1 (0.318) and 2 (0.069) (Table 4).
The results of this study in a group of 40 women with subjective symptoms of functional disorders of the masticatory system showed a significantly lower pain threshold for the masseter and temporal muscles than in a group of 40 healthy women (P < 0.001).
