The butyrate-producing genus Blautia and Faecalibacterium in the XOS500 group displayed an increasing trend compared to the CTC and CON group (0.05 < P < 0.1), while no significant differences were observed among the three groups ( Supplementary Figure 3 ).

The relative abundance of the Bacteroides phylum showed an increasing trend following FMT and CMT treatments ( P < 0.1), while the relative abundances of the Firmicutes ( P < 0.05) and Proteobacteria ( P < 0.05) phyla were reduced at day 28 after the transplantation ( Figure 6B ).

Further analysis showed significant positive correlations between PA and NO 2 ( p < 0.05) and a marginally significant correlation with the abundance of HNFs ( p < 0.1; Table 1 ).

The relative abundance of Christensenellaceae R-7 group and Ruminococcaceae NK4A214 group showed a linear increase ( p < 0.05) and Ruminococcaceae UCG-014 showed an increasing trend ( p < 0.10) with the dietary energy level increased, while the abundance of Succinivibrionaceae UCG-002 showed a linear decrease ( p < 0.05) and Lachnospiraceae XPB1014 group showed a decreased trend ( p < 0.10) with the dietary energy level increased ( Supplementary Table S3 ).

Similarly, the TRE2 group showed a trend toward reduced the diarrhea rate in 2 nd week ( p < 0.10) and significantly decreased average diarrhea rate compared to CON- ( p < 0.05), with no statistically significant difference observed between CON+ and TRE2 ( p > 0.05).

Concentrations of C and N in soil and microbial biomass In the mixed heath soil, the concentrations of NH + 4 , NO − 3 , DOC, and DON in the soil mesocosms were 43–67% lower than the concentrations in the control mesocosms, although the difference for NH + 4 was only marginally significant (0.05 < P < 0.1, Tukey's HSD; Table 3 ).

In the case of salinity and muscle-weight, borderline significance was observed ( P < 0.10), while the rest of the fixed effect parameters showed P -values lower than 0.001 ( Table 5 ).

Statistical significance was defined at P < 0.05, and trending toward significance was defined at 0.05 ≤ P ≤ 0.1.

The relative abundance of Basidiomycota gradually declined as the altitude increased to 4,200 m, while that of Ascomycota showed an increasing trend at this elevation range ( p < 0.1) ( Supplementary Table S2 ).

butyricum addition resulted in higher ( P < 0.05) abundances of Clostridia ( Clostridiales ) and Prevotellaceae , concurrent with an increasing trend ( P < 0.10) of Bifidobacteriaceae abundance and decreased the abundances of several harmful bacteria such as Klebsiella ( P < 0.05).

Least square means are reported with treatment effects declared significant at P < 0.05 and with a trend toward significance at 0.05 ≤ P < 0.10.

It also showed a trend toward reducing IgY content ( P < 0.10).

As predicted, lmo2316 was significantly upregulated ( p = 0.0014) and lmo1119 showed a trend toward downregulation during intracellular growth ( p = 0.1091; Figure 5A ).

The Simpson index also showed an increasing trend ( p = 0.11), indicating an improvement in community evenness.

Among overweight and obese individuals diagnosed with GDM, GOS intervention showed a decreasing trend in inflammatory markers, such as IL-6 (0.98 ± 0.39 vs. 1.24 ± 0.29; p = 0.111) ( Table 8 ). 3.6.

No significant associations were detected in younger age groups after adjustment, although a positive trend was noted in those aged 30–39 (β = 0.0250; p = 0.1225).

Significant differences in viral RNA at endpoint between these three variants were only detected in the lungs, where the concentration was lower in animals infected with the B.1.617.2/Delta VOC, while B.1.351/Beta-infected mice showed a trend towards higher amounts of RNA ( p = 0.1264; Figure 1D ).

For the serum fructose level, there were no significant differences between the four groups, and the 20% FRU group showed a trend of higher levels when compared with the CON ( p = 0.13) and 10% GLU ( p = 0.28) groups.

The sole variable approaching clinical significance was permanent drug discontinuation (11.9% vs. 17.5%; SMD 0.069; p = 0.133), though it remained below the prespecified imbalance threshold (SMD < 0.10).

This showed a trend toward CST IV/V in mid/late menopause compared to early (65.9% vs. 41.2%, p =0.142).

The effects of the ETEC F4 challenge were milder, with only a numerical trend seen for a lower ADFI in the post-inoculation period (333.65 vs. 367.95 g for challenged and non-challenged groups, respectively, p = 0.152).

The Fe total in sediment and in andesitic or trachydacitic tephra were significantly not different ( p -value = 0.158) ( Table 2 ).

In our second experiment, we lacked statistical power to detect a significant trend over time (treatment x time interaction, p = 0.16), but the direction of our results was consistent with our prediction.

Results Population Structure of French MRSP ST71 MRSP remains the dominant methicillin-resistant clone in France (Table 1 ) but its prevalence over the years revealed a decreasing trend, even not statistically significant ( p = 0.1643), from 65.3% in the 2012–2013 collection to 55.2% in the 2015–2016 collection.
