A 78% increase in abnormalities is neither significant nor insignificant. If the number of observations is large enough and the quality of the data good enough then the difference is significant. Without those qualifications a 1000% difference may not be singnificant.

The increase of abnormalities may or may not be significant at 78%..........but an increased risk of 78% is totally insignificant.
