The SCPD curve begins with a negative trend, reaching its lowest point at around 1450 BC.

A moderately significant direct correlation was found between the percentage of ODI and EO muscle electrical activity in all phases of curl-up exercise with AH manoeuvre.

Elemental concentrations of Sr, Al and Ge display an increasing trend from south to north.

Moreover, TP53 was downregulated in the expression array when comparing HR vs LR expression levels adjusted by sex, diet, age and baseline weight, and CD40 showed a statistical trend.

Contamination evolution was very variable throughout the study in both isolators, but showed a decreasing trend over time.

Patients with two metastatic sites, where one of them is the lung tends to have a slight trend to a worse outcome.

In the rice cropping season, the annual N 2 O emissions of the SRF treatment were significantly reduced by 5.55%, and the reduction of OF+UI was extremely significant at 7.93%.

For true positives, the ranking of the techniques changed in that direct questioning now performed best, with a true positive rate of about 70% (although the differences to the other techniques are not, or only marginally significant; the p values compared to CM, UQ, and FR are 0.23, 0.30, and 0.06, respectively).

However, it was remarkable that we were able to show that differences in diversity where statistically highly significant.

On the other hand, combined pretreatment of rats with Curcumin and Gallic acid was more protective and effective than one of them, and this effect was highly significant in CK-MB and TBARs levels.

An increasing trend in its abundance between the fjord head and the fjord mouth seems to originate from an increase in marine productivity along the fjord axis.

Islandiella norcrossi and Elphidium excavatum (27% and 20% relative abundance, respectively) showed a decreasing trend between the fjord head and the fjord mouth in terms of relative abundance.

First, given previous studies showing the association between growth mindset and positive motivational outcomes [ 7 , 8 , 24 ], the main effect of the growth mindset might be significant.

However, after adjustment for known metabolic risk factors, multivariate regression analysis showed that this association was attenuated (OR: 1.17, 95% CI: 0.95–1.43) with marginal significance.

At both levels of aggregation, the effects of age were highly significant, and at the individual task level this trend was significant for all but two tasks.

When Slope >0, the NDVI or LAI shows an increasing trend, and when Slope <0, the NDVI or LAI shows a decreasing trend [ 45 ].

The variation in CL and PS contents in log phase showed an increasing trend in the Ala-to-Ser relative to the control strain, but there were no statistical differences between control and mistranslating strains in any PL class, in neither growth phase.

Survival outcomes according to tumor stage confirmed significant differences between the two groups of GSN expression ( p = 0.021 for stage II patients; p = 0.027 for stage III patients), and showed a trend toward better survival rates in the OAS2 overexpression group than in the underexpression group.

The height of the head had a highly significant effect on PC1, which was confirmed by the visual evaluation of the extreme deformation grids as well as from the conditional R 2 of 0.59, one of the highest values in the study.

We observed a borderline significant trend association between high fatigue (elevated scores of SOFI) and the risk of CVD.

This was clear also from the three cases in which simulation results were continued until 10 years follow-up, where a clear trend in disc changes were observed, especially from 5 years post-surgery, even when changes within the first 2 years were modest.

Marginally significant associations were found for poor adherence determined by the one-month days taken measure (OR = 1.75, 95% CI 0.98–3.13) and the 3-day measure (OR = 2.04, 95% CI 0.99–4.18).

A further study investigating the effects of acupuncture or attention in people suffering chronic stress observed a trend towards significance in improving the diurnal profile of salivary cortisol for both groups [ 32 ].

The small sample size may also have caused a loss of effect in outcomes close to significance.

Nevertheless, the effects of organization and disorganization on valence were highly significant at the group level and the valence and arousal ratings did not correlate significantly with individual differences in desire for order and organization behavior.
