Excerpts

Since the P values of these models were highly significant ( Table 1 ), we interpreted the slopes and spatial distribution of residuals of these models as such.

Also in the kidney, our experiments show a highly significant decrease in fibrosis in mice deficient only in bone-marrow Il17ra .

Multivariate regression analyses of shape (Pco) on size (Cs) performed separately in each forelimb bone for exploring interspecific allometry were highly significant in all cases ( Table 2 ).

Based on three different datasets and the x 2 tests with 6 degrees of freedom, the calculated P -values were extremely significant in all cases, suggesting that the base at the second codon position affected the synonymous codon choices.

However, we also considered differences as marginally significant when the uncorrected p values were lower than a crit_p obtained using q<0.25 if the differences were found in the stimulus period and absent in the control period, and occurred during time periods not already indicated as significant ( Table 1 ).

Because the COPD smokers in the SAE group of the study reported significantly more pack-yr of smoking than did the healthy smokers, and the COPD smokers in the LAE group had a nonsignificant trend toward more pack-yr of smoking than healthy smokers, a subset of COPD smokers in each group was randomly selected that was matched for pack-yr with the healthy smokers.

These results indicate that disturbance from selective timber harvesting or historical cultivation did not significantly affect the soil bacterial diversity, although there was a slight trend towards higher bacterial diversity with disturbance in all forests.

Do Lin−/Sca1+ Cell Levels Respond to Stroke? Analysis of the ability of Lin−/Sca1+ cells to mobilize from the bone marrow to the peripheral blood following stroke ( Figure 1 ) demonstrate that, following murine stroke, bone marrow production of Lin−/Sca1+ cells was minimal at 4 hours (106±46% versus sham), but achieved a highly significant increase by 24 hours (272±60% versus sham).

Furthermore, the observed differences in SSP detection rates between the stool DNA testing and FIT were substantial and highly significant.

Severity scores were translated to evolution scores for easier interpretation of the data and a positive trend would therefore indicate a clinical improvement.

There was a slight trend toward steeper body size–latitude relationships in males (slope = 0.0008) than in females (slope = 0.0006)( Fig. 2 ).

Percent of senescing leaves was not significantly different, but an apparent trend of more advanced senescence in WT as compared to transgenics was evident ( Figure 5 ).

There was also a significant trend for the hazard ratios for the different categories of the dose-response parameters in the age-sex-adjusted models, which became insignificant when all covariates were adjusted.

Further, the summary correlation coefficent obtained combining the species-specific correlations through meta-analysis was negative and highly significant ( Figure 5 a).

These correlations were either significant or marginally significant in all instances ( Figure 3 ).

For both sequences, we found highly significant effects of the experimental task on bilateral insula and amygdala activation in patients and controls.

Although there was a nonsignificant trend of increased CoxIV activity (normalized to that of citrate synthase, an exclusive marker of the mitochondrial matrix) with addition of E2, the change was not statistically significant.

This difference may be significant, considering the divergent functionality among the different members of the p38 MAPK family [8] , [32] , [33] .

Thus, for the “Fairly Well” and “Very Well” categories, we have (2) where * indicates a statistically extremely significant coefficient with a p-value , # indicates a significant coefficient with a p-value , and b indicates a slightly significant coefficient with a p-value ( Table 3 ).

A prevalence ratio greater than one indicates a positive trend.

The generalised-linear model was run on the proportion of alcohol consumption, with the training groups as the independent variable., Both training groups showed a trend towards changing in the expected direction relative to the sham-training group.

Primary caregiver’s history of asthma was significantly associated with reporting a lifetime asthma diagnosis, while primary caregiver’s current smoking status was marginally significant.

[41] found that, intervention women reported a lower, albeit statistically marginally non-significant, adjusted rate of IPV victimization [Incidence Rate Ratio (IRR) 0.86, 95% CI, 0.73–1.01] and a significantly lower rate of perpetration (IRR 0.83, 95% CI, 0.72–0.96) than the control group.

In other words, perpetration rates decreased significantly and victimization rates showed a trend towards decrease after three years, but not after nine years.

The remaining miRNAs showed borderline significant p-values ( Figure 1 ).
