Particularly, the highly significant correlation between PA1 and ERβ suggested that PA1 might be able to interact and modulate ERβ transcriptional activity in breast cancer.

with a higher hospitalisation rate) may be significant.

We found a marginal trend towards a decreased preference for the matched shoal over the unmatched one at higher predation risks for both small and large fish, suggesting that as risk increases, the oddity effect decreases in importance, and instead, simply being in any group is important.

There was a clear trend in coral recovery between fishing scenarios for the least degraded sites (Lucero and Malilnep), that showed that recovery in absolute and relative terms increased as the intensity of fishing decreased ( Table 5 ).

Although not significant, the prevalence rates in Suihua showed an increasing trend, Qiqihar showed a declining trend, and Qitaihe and Mudanjiang fluctuated.

found a negative trend in HRQOL with frailty, as measured by the Study of Osteoporotic Fractures for the dimensions of health, independence, home and neighborhood, psychological and emotional well-being, and leisure, activities and religion, in a cross-sectional study of 239 community-dwelling outpatients referred to a geriatric medicine clinic [13] .

Males showed significantly higher proportions of medium stained cells in the posterior ventrolateral zone (F 1,55 8.6, p0.005) and a strong trend in the posterior dorsomedial zone (p0.059).

Interestingly, for these traits with significant heterosis, the performance of F 1 was significantly higher than the mean of the F 2 population and higher than the mean of the DH population in 19 and all of the 25 trait-environment combinations respectively, which showed an obvious trend of inbreeding depression.

Values of P<0.05 were considered significant, whereas values of P<0.01 were considered highly significant.

These results demonstrated a clear trend that more generic concepts indeed have higher retrieval power.

The principal components did not vary by insecticide treated bednet (ITN) use, and RTS,S/AS01 E vaccination was associated with reduction in the first principal component of borderline significance ( Table S2 ).

In addition, the TERT rs2736098 variant A allele showed a marginally significant association with overall cancer risk.

In the meta-analysis, a borderline significant association between the rs2736098 polymorphism and overall cancer risk was observed (AA vs.

These two mtSNPs also achieved nominally significant levels for association with BMI.

Tests for interaction for the difference in effects between men and women were non-significant with only those for job strain (p = 0.08) and work social support (p = 0.03) being marginally significant.

The resulting p-value computed on 1000 random permutations was highly significant (0.002), confirming the association between GGI-low/high subgroups and mir-210 targets.

The SNP showing the most highly significant association was OAR4_45088426, which is located at position 42,810,217 bp in the OARv3.1 ovine genome sequence.

Upon determination of bacterial load four weeks after challenge, BCG immunised groups displayed highly significant protection in the spleen ∼1.5 log 10 (ρ<0.001) and lungs ∼2 log 10 (ρ<0.01) ( Table 1 A , representative data of 1 of 4 separate experiments).

The differences in morphology of juxtaforms and liberforms suggests there may be significant differences in the presence or molecular composition of major cytoskeletal components, particularly the flagellum attachment zone (FAZ), but also the paraflagellar rod (PFR), sub-pellicular microtubules, the flagellar pocket collar and the bilobe structure.

Trypomastigotes in the bloodstream showed a trend for widths narrower than the minor axis of the host erythrocytes ( Figure 8C ).

It is interesting to note the functional parallels between stereocilia and cilia with which kaptin and BBS2, respectively, are associated, particularly since the relationship between the two proteins, in statistical terms, is at best borderline significant.

Findings and Significance The regional and whole-brain cross-sectional comparisons between Alzheimer's disease subjects and matched controls indicate that there may be significant magnetic susceptibility differences for deep brain nuclei – particularly the putamen – as well as for posterior grey and white matter regions.

Fold changes with p-values<0.05 were considered to be statistically significant, and fold changes with p-values<0.01 to be highly significant.

First of all, in the Sullivan GWAS, rs2522833 only became nominally significant after post-hoc analysis with a cohort that used a similar method of ascertainment.

In the GAIN-MDD GWAS however, had rare variants been causal, there would not have been a marginally significant signal, unless if these rare variants would all have been recent and in the same haplotype.
