Excerpts

Of note, the prevalence of syphilis showed an increasing trend.

We found a highly significant difference in sensitivity of JRFL and REJO viruses to lectins, with REJO displaying relatively less sensitivity than JRFL.

This pattern of distribution was confirmed by Fisher exact tests of independence, which revealed that the relationship between sex and “brain type” was highly significant ( p = 7.4·10 −14 ), the relationship between major and “brain type” was highly significant ( p < 2·10 −16 ) and the relationship between combined sex-major and “brain type” was highly significant ( p < 2·10 −16 ).

Species-specific differences in food incorporation Our experiments did show a highly significant ‘species effect’, with incorporation and respiration rates of the isotopically-enriched food sources being more than an order of magnitude higher for the sponge as compared to the coral.

Pairwise sample F ST comparisons for microsatellites indicated that costal hake stock extending from Washington State to Costa Rica (PC) was largely panmictic; the SBC sample showed some marginally significant differences from coastal samples, while those from PS and the NGC generally showed significant genetic differentiation from all other locations ( Table 2 ).

The UK and the Netherlands show an increasing trend.

Using this perspective, the results do not support a decreasing trend for the USA; in fact, the USA exceeds expectations (compared to its publication share) in terms of references in the top-1% articles.

Carotenoid content during fruit development in the outer pericarp of ‘Hongyang’ The carotenoid content shows a decreasing trend in some fruits during the fruit ripening, such as strawberry [ 28 ], raspberries [ 29 ], grape [ 30 ], apple [ 31 ] and bilberry [ 12 ], while in the same fruit, accumulation of the anthocyanin content results in red pigment formation.

Besides, an increase in COM sway was close to the level of significance ( Table 1 .

During quiet standing with eyes closed, all balance parameters in participants of all groups had a clear trend to increase.

When participants stood with eyes closed, a range of all balance parameters showed a trend to increase in all groups.

The frequencies of hypo- and hypermethylation of all probes about the total number of analyzed probes per chromosome showed a trend towards general hypermethylation in DS vs. controls.

Our data revealed an increasing trend in the number of boys with CPP and the number of incidental findings since 2012.

frugiperda depending on genes surveyed) is alarming as the implications on agricultural biosecurity and evolution of resistance especially to the Bt proteins such as Cry1Ab currently being tested in Uganda for stalk borer control may be significant.

It was observed a clear trend on delta-9 desaturase activity indices, which were consistently higher in discontinuous bulls, suggesting an important effect of growth path on SCD1 and SCD5 mRNA levels.

These results were confirmed to be significant ( P <0.05) in the case of ELOVL5 , FASN and SLC37A4 , and almost significant for FABP3 by qRT-PCR analysis.

In fact, risk ratios in our models were no longer significant for PDQS and remained borderline significant for AHEI-2010 after adjusting for BMI, indicating a significant role of overweight/obesity in the occurrence of hypertensive disorders of pregnancy.

Shigella sonnei was shown to have a lower frequency compared with that generally observed in China, but an increasing trend of infections associated with this pathogen was observed.

Yellow areas are significant or borderline significant.

Two further genera ( Leucosporidiella and Rhodotorula ) displayed highly significant positive responses to the pre-crop rapeseed, with the first correlating to conservation tillage and the latter positively associated with MP ( Table 4 ), in which Rhodotorula was by far the most prevalent genus.

Proximity to −1 and 1 means a significant trend of such relationship, whereas approaching 0 indicates the opposite.

The B/H showed a low variability range with an increasing trend with age (R 2 = 0.996) (Panel 4 in Fig 5 ).

All calculated correlations among plasma protein concentrations were highly significant (close to 0.99).

The effect was highly significant with imbibition immediately after plasma treatment and became less so as time increased between plasma treatment and imbibition, although this lessened significance appeared to result from greater variability in the samples, both control and plasma-treated.

aureus at any site showed a trend suggesting that treatment B was more effective than treatment A.
