Waller says he does not think this was done maliciously or with the intention of obstructing or misleading either investigation, but the effects were both "significant and unsatisfactory".
As shown in Table 2, there was a significant and unsatisfactory increase in Tobin index for the control group (95% confidence interval [CI] −4.47 to −24.44, P = 0.002) and a satisfactory increase in maximum inspiratory pressure in the experimental group (95% CI 7.09 12.62, P = 0.001).
These confounding factors resulted in very low power to detect a statistically significant difference in unsatisfactory rates, despite a wide difference in mean unsatisfactory rates between the two platforms.
But Preston depicts other significant developments in flat, unsatisfactory passages.
Gartside's overall evidence, the judge concluded, contained "significant elements which were unsatisfactory".
Of the 1467 participating in our survey, more than one third evaluated their health as unsatisfactory, noted significant limitations and reported problems on all SF-12-scales.

Exclusion criteria were significant congenital heart disease, unsatisfactory imaging of left ventricle at rest or during stress, atrial fibrillation, positive stress echocardiography, severe mitral regurgitation, or no available followup data.
However, the message here is that rules of the first type, specifying the number of decimal places and ignoring the number of significant digits, are inherently unsatisfactory, as the following examples show.
This analysis showed that a high McGill affective score (score >3; OR 4.48 (95% CI 1.43 to 14.08)), severity of leg pain (VAS >70; OR 2.80 (95% CI 1.39 to 5.62)) and age (age >40 years; OR 2.36 (95% CI 1.12 to 5.00)) were the only significant predictors for an unsatisfactory outcome at 5 years.
Multivariate logistic regression showed that age (>40; OR 2.42 (95% CI 1.16 to 5.02)), severity of leg pain (VAS >70; OR 3.32 (95% CI 1.69 to 6.54)) and the Mc Gill affective score (score >3; OR 6.23 (95% CI 2.23 to 17.38)) were the only significant predictors for an unsatisfactory outcome at 5 years.
