Excerpts

Although not statistically significant, there was an apparent trend whereby private for-profit facilities were more likely to allow individually owned animals; no other demographic variables appeared to relate.

As animals became older, there was a slight trend for fewer COCs recovered from LOPU and better embryo development.

In general, in the research period, the center of the whiteblotched skate range showed a trend of displacement in the north direction.

Nevertheless, in general, they showed a positive trend.

Furthermore, QPCTL expression in breast muscle showed a trend of a gradual decline with progressing embryonic stages.

The results showed that Indels in the QPCTL promoter region were significantly associated with the daily weight gain in chickens and that QPCTL expression showed a decreasing trend in embryonic breast muscle tissues.

Some studies showed an increasing trend [ 8 , 10 , 19 , 20 ], while others revealed a decrease [ 21 , 22 ].

The fat-to-protein ratio exhibited a positive trend that did not survive FDR adjustment.

A p -value of <0.05 was considered significant, and <0.01 indicated a highly significant difference. 2.13.3.

On the other hand, since digestive enzymes are partially hydrolysed and eliminated with faeces as digestion progresses [ 33 ], samplings done at different moments after a meal should evidence a decreasing trend in the activities.

Gender Differences in Responses to the Trainer Survey Of the 14 issues tested, 5 had significant or close-to-significant gender differences: In track design and surface, after combining levels 2, 3 and 4, male respondents (M) were more likely than female respondents (F) to say that their horses raced on other types of tracks (gradual turning turf: M = 17, F = 9; gradual or tight turf or synthetic: M = 10, F = 5; other: M = 16, F = 1) (Χ 2 = 6.1, p = 0.048).

In contrast, the expression levels of CAST showed a trend of a negative correlation with n6, short-chain fatty acids (SCFA), and n6/n3.

All the MCTs tested positive for VEGF protein, and although not statistically significant, tumors with more conspicuous malignant features showed a trend towards a higher expression.

In our study, the ADG of yaks in the G group exhibited a decreasing trend; however, the MSG and CSG groups exhibited a positive effect on the ADG of yaks during the cold grazing season.

Although there is an increasing trend (D1 content > D2 content > D3 content > T content) among the other distances, there are no statistically significant differences.

Particularly, the pH showed a decreasing trend in values as one moves away from the poultry house (D1 pH > D2 pH > D3 pH); however, T was like D1.

A slight trend toward narrower, but not shorter, PC granules compared to PSU was observed ( Figure 1 C).

In addition, there was an increasing trend in the milk yield in the HGE diet, but the difference was not significant, which might be related to the supplemental dose of VE.

In this experiment, compared with the HG diet, the expression levels of guanine, hypoxanthine, guanine nucleoside, and inosine were significantly up-regulated in the HGE diet, and 3’-AMP also showed a trend of up-regulation.

p < 0.05 meant a significant difference and p < 0.01 meant an extremely significant difference. 3.

These authors observed a decreasing trend in carryover rate, without statistical significance between groups, as the AFB1 intake increased.

The metabolites that positively correlated with thawing PM included six phospholipids (three PEs, with PE 21:4 nearly significant; and three phosphorylcholines), four oligopeptides, three sphingolipids, phosphatidylserine (PS 34:2), five organic acids or acid anhydrides (including creatine and S-adenosylhomocysteine), and seven others.

Nonetheless, observations were carried out across a wide range of temperature, humidity, and wind speed conditions, still resulting in highly significant correlations.

[ 23 ] also showed a decreasing trend for MCV and MCH.

Moreover, TIBC and UIBC showed an increasing trend up to the 28th day of life in both groups, while other reports showed a reverse trend up to the 21st day of life [ 42 ].
