Excerpts

In other words, the English language showed a clear trend of moving from modal verbs that require high-low power relations and demand high levels of obligations.

The effects of age were also highly significant: the older the respondents were, the less likely they were to be fundamentally hostile to vaccination, although variations remained.

Although drought-stressed seedlings treated with exogenous Put displayed an increasing trend in both genotypes for all parameters, significant responses were recorded in SBT-010 only for Pn and water use efficiency (WUE) on the application of 0.3 mM Put.

In the heatmap, the parameters SOD, CAT, AsA, and LRWC displayed a decreasing trend, and the parameters H 2 O 2 , MDA, Pro, GB, Chl a/b ratio, root-shoot ratio, and GPX displayed an increasing trend in drought-stressed seedlings compared to the control.

Therefore, being a halophytic crop [ 89 ], sugar beet showed a negative trend in mannitol accumulation in the present study under all treatments.

Furthermore, supernatants from murine astrocytes exposed to LPS, but none of the other mediators, showed a trend towards toxic effects when applied to murine NSC-34 neuronal cells, which again was different from the regulation of phagocytic activity by all mediators tested in this study.

But increasing the slope may have already substantially affected this phenomenon, causing a decreasing trend in the mass of total ejected material.

In aged animals, SAR247799 significantly reduced heart weight/tibia length ( Fig 3A ) , right atrial weight/tibia length ( Fig 3C ) , inter-ventricular septum at end-systole (IVSs) ( Fig 3E ) and LVPWs ( Fig 3G ) and showed a trend to reduce left atrial weight/tibia length ( Fig 3B ) , IVSd ( Fig 3D ) and LVPWd ( Fig 3F ) .

With an increase in k , the ApEn of the soil moisture series in the surface, middle, and deep layers under the four land use types showed a decreasing trend in both growing seasons.

The model found a decreasing trend of smoking cessation by age, where the youngest age group (20–29) had the highest marginal probability of quitting (49.5%), followed by participants in their 30s (30.8%), in their 40s (19.4%), and those who were 50 years old or above (5.2%).

Nonsevere COVID-19 cases showed a trend to thrombotic pole.

The incidence of hemorrhagic fever in China has had a slightly increasing trend in recent years.

The results show that ARIMA model tends to forecast more accurate results for which there is a clear trend in the series, whereas LSTM tends to do better on volatile time series with more instable components.

Several studies using administrative data have noted an increasing trend in sepsis-related hospitalizations, but the rationale for this increasing trend is conflicting.

-statistics: where analyses adjusted for multiple comparisons? If so, how? Answer: The analyses were not adjusted for multiple comparisons since the number of comparisons is small and the p values in all comparisons were highly significant. -line 113: There seems to be a word missing in the last sentence.

Not significant, but with a tendency towards significance, the duration of this first visit was 2.5 times and 2.3 times longer on flowers of FR-treated than on CTR and CU-treated plants, respectively.

We have amended the result to show 3 decimal places and to state that it is only borderline significant: “For “outcome expectations”, those aged 60-75 seemed more likely to have low motivations as compared to those aged 40-59, with borderline significance (adjusted OR 1.569, 95% CI 1.004-2.453, p=0.048).” We have also removed the outcome expectations from the discussion section given the marginally significant result.

There were extremely significant differences in 11 indices of leaf structure for these 35 healthy plants.

Pre-TKR subjects showed a trend of higher mid-stance EKAM (related to knee OA severity) with no clearly defined double peak ( Fig 3D ).

Overall, spring migrants also showed similar haematological profiles, with the only difference being a decreasing trend of H/L ratios across the season.

A decreasing trend was observed only in municipalities with very high social vulnerability for Income and Work (APC −1.8%).

Only the state of Minas Gerais showed an increasing trend, whereas nine other states showed a stationary trend.

Rainfall time series between 1964–2015 at latitudes 9°, 12° and 13° South encompass the cities of Paulo Afonso-BA, Sobradinho-BA, Bom Jesus da Lapa-BA and Irecê-BA, indicating a decreasing trend in precipitation by the Student t-test.

Thus, there is an increasing trend in sea surface temperatures over the Tropical Atlantic shifting the ITCZ northward, reducing rainfall south of the Equator [ 27 ].

Although the PDI value of the KPEVs did not significantly change in repeated freeze-thaw cycles, the heterogeneity of the KPEVs had an increasing trend ( Fig 4A , right).
