Excerpts

A value of p < 0.05 and p < 0.01 was considered to be significant and highly significant, respectively.

There was a trend toward significance in the differences between those who used the hood fan and those that did not in mean, median and percent of time at moderately high PM 2.5 levels.

If anything, there was a weak trend that effort and prices were lower within the Channel Islands during the unlimited season, which reflects the fact that this unlimited time-period contained the months with the lowest GSI ( Fig 2 ).

Within Fort Bragg there were clearly no differences in either metric between seasons, but within the Channel Islands there was a slight trend of greater total effort (number of receipts) during those months limited to a four-day work-week compared to the unlimited period.

Results and discussion The correlations between AS-R aro and AS-R val on the one hand, and PAP aro and PAP val , on the other hand, were highly significant: r = 0.5, for arousal, and r = 0.25, for valence (both Ps < 0.0001).

Contrary to this, WD during R1-R6 stage shows a negative trend at all three locations.

Our analysis revealed that at all three locations, while the March precipitation shows an increasing trend (2.1 mm decade -1 ), the PET also increases at a median rate of 2.5 mm decade -1 .

The WD during R1-R6 stage shows a positive trend for full season corn at State College and Syracuse with the exception at Landisville, which shows no significant trend.

We found a borderline significant inverse correlation with protein intake and alpha diversity.

Study limitations Even though our prolong CKD model resulted in increased myocardial fibrosis and highly significant mitochondrial dysfunction, overt systolic heart failure was not documented.

Highly significant correlations were found to gs x P N (0.57), gs x NPQ (-0.52), gs x Ci (0.76), P N x Ci (0.62) and NPQ x Ci (-0.75), indicating that these can be used as surrogate traits for selection procedures in breeding programs for drought tolerance in peanut.

Statistical analyses were performed using the GraphPad Prism software (GraphPad Software, San Diego, CA), p value < 0.05 was considered as significant, whereas p value < 0.01 was considered as highly significant.

In addition, there was a clear trend in the scores’ increase with respect to the fetal fraction of the aneuploid samples.

Statistical significance was determined a priori at p < .05, and p-values between .05 and .10 were rated as marginally significant due to the exploratory nature of this study.

The weighted prevalence of cotinine-verified smoking showed a decreasing trend with increasing age irrespective of the threshold urinary cotinine level.

Differences at P<0.05 were considered significant and P<0.01 were considered highly significant.

Macdonald and Perry [ 17 ] reported a positive trend between water depth and bioerosion and attributed the high degree of infestation across all depth zones to heavy nutrient inputs at the study site, since bioerosion has been shown to be proportional to primary productivity [ 28 ].

Indeed an annual report from 2015 showed that, unlike the seven other CCLs operating in Queensland, the majority of PCI cases in Mackay occurred in the elective setting.[ 10 ] Our data also showed a trend towards ticagrelor loading between 2015 and 2016.

In the 20 to 200 cm soil profile, the extent of soil under drought stress showed an increasing trend in response to increased VC.

The same report revealed an increasing trend for diarrheal diseases, Kala-azar and skin diseases in three districts (drought-prone Rajshahi, flood-prone Manikganj and salinity-dense Satkhira) of Bangladesh between 1999 to 2005 [ 26 ].

In parallel with the increased CD4 thresholds to initiate HAART, the number and proportions of women receiving HAART showed an increasing trend from 0 in 2005 to 62% in 2013.

The proportion of women whose HIV status disclosure was not known had shown a decreasing trend from 56.6% during the implementation of the 2001 PMTCT guideline to 31.1% during the implementation of the 2011 PMTCT guideline.

As shown in Fig 3 and Table 3 , the content of isoquercitrin exhibited an increasing trend in the following order: Guangdong < Guangxi < Chongqing, ranging from 0.537–4.498 mg/g.

In the linear regression analysis, there was a highly significant correlation between ABC/2 and computer-assisted values (R 2 = 0.934, slope = 0.975) ( Fig 2A ).

There was a strong trend toward increased mortality in patients whose T cells failed to increase IFN-γ production in response to the three treatments.
