P Value (Drug Research)

Statistical data, such as data from human tests of a candidate drug, are often accompanied by a P value, which is the mathematical probability that the data are the result of random chance. Data with a low P value (less than or equal to 0.05) are said to be "statistically significant." For example, a P value of 0.05 means that there is a 1 in 20 chance that the data is the result of random chance.


P Value (HIV and AIDs)

The probability that experimental results are attributable to chance alone. The lower the p-value, the more likely it is that the results are not due to chance. A p-value of less than 0.05 is considered statistically significant.
