Excerpts

Marginally significant interactive effects between tannin and fat were only observed for the time to seed harvest and the proportions of seeds eaten in situ ( Table 1 ).

The abundance and/or diversity of clones affiliated with Eurotiales, Hypocreales , Glomerales , Orbiliales, Mucorales and Tremellales showed an increasing trend with continuous cropping but clones affiliated with Agaricales , Cantharellales , Pezizales and Pyxidiophorales decreased in abundance and/or diversity over time.

But clone abundance showed a decreasing trend with each subsequent cropping cycle.

Somatic embryogenesis is currently applied industrially for large-scale and rapid dissemination of selected F1 hybrids that provide a highly significant increase in the yield of high quality coffee [26] , [27] .

Moreover, intertidal species exhibited a decreasing trend with salinity range, suggesting a lower tolerance of this faunal category to salinity changes [22] .

Also, rs7978987 in STX2 had a highly significant P value of 3.82×10 −11 in this meta-analysis.

It may be significant that some of the candidate TRPML1 interactors possibly align with functions of TRPML1 that were proposed based on observed defects in MLIV cells or in models of MLIV.

We found an overall trend of increasing odds of CKD Stage progression as the years PAI increased.

In the next graph in the figure, the medical and health sciences show significantly increasing trends for Germany (r s = 1.0) and France (r s = 1.0) but a decreasing trend for the USA (r s = −.64).

The citation impact of papers from China is still at a relatively low level (mostly below the world average), but the country follows an increasing trend line.

Although as a statistical trend (contrasts survived uncorrected but not corrected thresholds), the oral contraceptive group’s activation upon expectation of erotic stimuli was reduced compared to mid-luteal nC subjects in two additional brain regions, the dorsomedial prefrontal cortex (DMPFC) and anterior middle cingulate cortex.

Interestingly though, highly significant cortical group differences between the C group and the nC group were most pronounced when comparing effects of contraceptives with those in the mid-follicular phase on expectation of erotic pictures.

This interaction term is significant in voxels different than those where the main effects of diagnosis were observed, and it is highly significant in the cingulum just anterior to the genu of the corpus callosum.

The finding of the presence of flies on the face at the time of examination as a risk factor for active trachoma has been documented in other settings [6] , [15] ; in neighboring Katsina State, this association did not quite reach statistical significance [7] .

Although there was a possible trend towards decreased IgG1, there was no reduction in the concentrations of either IgG2b or IgG2c (the homolog of IgG2a found in C57BL/6 mice) in the groups treated with EP67 compared to the non-treated control animals.

In cell culture, all CPXVs grew as efficiently as the reference strain CPXV-BR and, albeit CPXV-AUS1999-867 showed a trend of slow growing phenotype, this was not significant ( Figure S1 ).

This 50% reduction in testing results in an increasing trend over the next 10 years which is likely to continue beyond 2020 ( Figure 3 ).

Interaction effect sizes were contrasted for the strongest SNPs of nominally significant genes (p interaction <0.05).

In order to reveal a statistical trend for NLR and CLI a Jonckheere-Terpstra test was performed.

LPS induced a highly significant increase in the production of TNFα, and similar levels of TNFα induction were seen in WT or p38β KO microglia ( Figure 2A ).

A marginally significant interaction was seen for gene SNCA on chromosome 4q21 with the same outcome and exposure (p interaction = 4.0×10 −4 ).

Evaluation of the degree of saturation of the fatty acid chains also unveiled a small trend of increase in unsaturation in case of eLDL loading.

Consistent with the highly significant effect on 10 week body mass and tail length, PAPP-A2 deletion had a significant effect on mandible dimensions and the lengths of the skull, humerus, femur, tibia, pelvic girdle, and tail bone ( Table 4 ); the effect on the length of the ulna/radius was marginally non-significant (F 2,60 = 2.71; P = 0.08).

MUC1 and MSLN were highly significant in the adjusted model, while MUC2 was not.

The pooled data in this meta-analysis also shows no significant difference in the incidence of peritonitis in agreement with these studies, but there seems to be an overall trend in favour of laparoscopy.
