The phrase "a small but statistical difference" is not entirely correct in written English.
It can be used when discussing differences in data or results that are statistically significant, even if they are small in magnitude.
Example: "The study revealed a small but statistically significant difference in the test scores between the two groups."
Alternatives: "a minor yet statistically significant difference" or "a slight but statistically relevant difference."
Therefore, the second transition was less clearly defined, spanning several of the developmental stages analyzed (a small number of statistical differences are still present between P10 P11 or P12 P13 and later stages).
Even in larger patient collectives a small statistical significant difference in postoperative pain might be clinically not of significance.
There was a small statistical significant difference favouring the De Palma method in functional early analysis (6 months) according to the DASH questionnaire, and for supination movement favouring the fixator group.
As only in the IV group a small statistical significant difference in enhancement of the brainstem was measured in this study, the ability of the IA protocol to supply contrast rich blood to the brainstem, cerebellum and caudal cerebrum should be considered a potential limitation of the protocol.
With these small numbers, no statistical difference was noted between the incidence of coronoid fractures among the different fracture types AM versus AL (p = 0.409), AL versus PM (p = 0.499), and AM versus PM (p = 0.858).
What effect this small statistical difference might have had on our results is unknown; however, any impact was likely very small.
Not only was the sample size too small to detect a statistical difference, but these data are difficult to compare with those from PROWESS.
Since the GCK variants affect the threshold for glucose sensing, the effect size and/or sample size may be too small to render a statistical difference in insulin secretion.
The sample size, which was selected in order to detect any significant inferiority in fluorescein staining score, may have been too small to detect any statistical difference in BUT.
They were more often characterized by an insecure attachment, yet without reaching a significant statistical difference due to this small sample size.
