Excerpts

We observed a high variability of Tfam expression in PBMCs of GD and FD patients, but it showed an increasing trend.

Family Life shows an increasing trend over the period, whereas Family Stress decreases after the financial crisis, and the decrease in Family Stress maps onto the decrease in Intimate Crime incidents reported by the FBI.

The borderline significant correlation could be observed for II quartile of ferritin and UIBC ( S6 Table ).

Risk factor analysis and infection rates Analysis of socio-demographic factors and medical history (Tables D-F in S1 File ) revealed that electively admitted patients had a lower risk of being colonized with EPE on admission compared to patients admitted emergently, whereas a prior ICU stay (within the last 6 months) showed a trend towards enhanced risk of EPE presence.

The number of weeks that pigs tested IAV positive, and lowest ct values during the growing period in the nursery were not significantly associated with seroprevalence at weaning although, there was a numerical trend that reflected limited circulation of IAV after weaning.

We also observed a significant trend towards increasing incidence of lower extremity fracture with age in women, but not in men.

The data show a positive trend towards perceived higher importance of patient empowerment in the intervention group.

Platelet-interacting treponemes also showed a trend towards a correspondingly higher amplitude ( Α ) (mean = 0.30 ± 0.02 μm [SEM], Fig 5A yellow bracket and Fig 5E middle) and shorter cell body (L) (mean = 9.56 ± 0.65 μm [SEM], Fig 5B magenta bracket and 5E bottom) than non-platelet interacting treponemes ( A mean = 0.26 ± 0.01 μm [SEM], Fig 5E middle, L mean = 10.46 ± 0.66 μm [SEM], Fig 5E bottom).

For both O1 and C3 EEG, there was a highly significant decrease in log power with age in all 5 frequency bands ( Table 2 ).

Multivariable logistic regression analysis revealed that both myopia and high myopia had significant association with younger age, higher education level, parental myopia, lower serum vitamin D concentration, increased time of near work, and higher WBC counts, though the association between low serum 25(OH)D and myopia prevalence was marginally significant.

The positive network effect is quite significant for first-time buyers.

Moreover, application of the product resulted in a highly significant reduction regarding severity of objective findings of vaginal dryness, such as thinning of the vaginal epithelium, redness and petechial bleedings, and at day 28, all patients were free of petechial bleedings.

After standardization to maternal-infant characteristics, this association was weaker, and marginally significant (OR = 1.24; 95% CI 1.00–1.55).

The remaining two studies, which treated wealth as categorical variable but were not included in the meta-analysis due to lack of sufficient data, also showed a trend of lower odds of Plasmodium infection with an increase in the wealth index of individuals [ 36 , 57 ].

As statistical threshold p <.05 will be applied; effects with.05 < p <.10 will be referred to as marginally significant or trending toward significance.

Furthermore, the somatosensory cortex has been suggested as a key region in the activation of somatic markers (jointly with the vmPFC, see [ 51 ]), which might help explain the (weakly significant) correlation with the probability weighting parameter (γ, see [ 43 ]).

Regarding quantitative analysis, bulky tumors showed a clear trend toward the involvement of fewer grid voxels (5.1 compared with 9 for diffuse gliomas) regardless of their volume and often within the external/cortical quadrants of the grid.

For the radially growing zone, the linear model was statistically highly significant, but it only explained from 20% to 31% of the variability of the curvature rate.

While non-significant, there was a strong trend for patches of high kelp density to have a greater absolute number of recruits and at higher densities, with the greatest number of recruits occurring on the largest reef supporting the highest density of adult kelp during each census (Fig I in S1 File ).

Nevertheless, the association between CD4+ level and liver-related mortality almost reached statistical significance with an aHR close to the result reported by Grint et al [ 8 ].

Following up on this interaction by considering words and pseudowords separately, revealed a significant ON effect for words and a marginally significant ON effect for pseudowords.

In addition, the pressure difference shows an increasing trend with the increase of the sloping angle.

ing pathway, T cell activation and cholecystokinin receptor (CCKR) signalling pathway were significantly enriched (FDR < 0.05) by DEG of D15 vs D90 and D15 vs D250, respectively in Jersey cattle while only two pathways, purine metabolism (FDR = 0.095) and p38 MAPK pathway (FDR = 0.063) (D15 vs D90) tended towards significance in Kashmiri cattle ( Table 7 and S7 Table ).

This video-based method also enabled us to detect the presence of other animals around the tagged whales, showing an interesting trend in behavioral changes where feeding duration was shorter when other animals were present.

Therefore given the relatively large size of the sample, and especially where in some cases the results were marginally significant, the relative effect at a population level may be conservative.
