Excerpts

The difference between the means of the data was considered statistically significant when the p -value was less than 0.05, and to have a significant trend tendency when the values were between 0.05 and 0.10.

In contrast, IUGR exhibited a decreasing trend from parities 1 to 3, then gradually increased, attaining a significant increase at parity 5, which was maintained until parity 10 ( Figure 1 F).

An increasing trend in the thermal conductivity of all compost was also observed with the increase in moisture content for all compost material tested ( Figure 2 ).

Simple Summary With an increasing trend in chilled chicken sale and consumers’ preference for indigenous chickens in China, commercial, yellow-feathered chickens are confronted with some carcass trait challenges after slaughter, and age is considered to be an important factor in the quality of chickens.

Both types of estimates (based on RTU slice areas or on single RTU partial volumes) showed a trend toward more accurate and precise results when obtained from the cranial part of the fish body.

Statistical significance was set at p < 0.05, and a trend toward significance was considered at 0.05 ≤ p < 0.10. 3.

During the trial phase, the reproductive hormone indices in the control group were relatively stable, while E2 and P4 in the NAC group showed an increasing trend, which may have underlain the oestrogen secretion in the luteum in pregnancy.

Furthermore, Hsa-miR-99b-3p is considered a novel prognostic marker for oral cancer, as its increased expression showed a trend toward the advanced tumor stage.

On the other hand, the crude mannanase activity of Man122 showed an increasing trend with an increasing temperature but declined after 60 °C ( Figure 2 c).

The crude mannanase activity of Man26 increased gradually from 20 °C to 50 °C but showed a decreasing trend when the temperature was above 60 °C.

These factors indeed deserve further in-depth analysis in order to identify whether they are more or less significant when studying pathologies connected to the diagnosis of EqHV in horses and to, eventually, lead to meliorative management practices.

A probability of p < 0.05 was considered statistically significant, and 0.05 < p < 0.10 was defined as a tendency towards significance.

The models obtained from L(2,2) and L(3,2) had an increasing trend after race seven.

The phenotypic variances for all four Legendre polynomial models had a decreasing trend.

[ 44 ] found that serum IL-2 content showed a decreasing trend and IL-4 content decreased significantly in Altay sheep at −15 to −30 °C.

A decrease in eggshell thickness in the eggs up to the third season was found after the 16th day of incubation (simultaneously, the density showed an increasing trend).

There was also a highly significant effect of PBC level on TNF-α concentration, expressed per g tissue.

Highly significant favourable associations between avoidance distance and both 120-day and 140-day weights of breeding Limousin bulls were reported by [ 71 ].

When the different types of impacts were compared, the differences were highly significant both between impacts and between native and nonnative species ( Figure 5 ).

In Figure 6 C, an unusual trend of pH(mV) was observed; i.e., when the phase changed from anoxic to aerobic after the second NKP detection, pH(mV) exhibited continuous reduction rather than an increasing trend.

Those rehomed in the second week (i.e., at 14 weeks ( n = 22)) had slightly poorer success rates, but not significantly so, while dogs retained in the kennel more than two weeks ( n = 18) showed a highly significant reduction in the number of training successes.

Although the expression of the organic solute transport gene set did not show a clear trend, some of these genes, such as SLC16A9 , SLCO3A1 , SLC26A6 , and SLC51B , still showed differences in the small and large intestine.

p < 0.05 was considered statistically significant, and p < 0.01 was considered extremely significant.

This species is also listed as “Least Concern” [ 42 ] on the European Red List of Birds, and its population is estimated at 101,000–269,000 mature individuals with an increasing trend.

A value of p > 0.05 was considered to constitute no significant difference; a value of p < 0.05 was considered significant difference; a value of p < 0.01 was considered extremely significant difference. 3.
