Pooled OR of studies on postmenopausal women in Western countries suggested that soy isoflavone intake has a marginally significant protective effect (OR = 0.92; 95%CI: 0.83∼1.00), but further analyses stratifying by study design found no statistically significant association.
Excerpts
The highly significant differences between the three groups despite only 12 and 18 patients in the patient groups and 28 healthy controls indicate clear differences in the regulation of motor activity between the three groups.
Results PGLS Regression Analyses There was a highly significant relationship between body mass at maximum growth (BMatMG) and maximum absolute growth rate (AGR) in all studied taxonomic groups ( Table 1 , see Table S2 for OLS analyses).
While the difference is marginally significant, we believe this observation is important to report since the variability is largely caused by one fetus in each group.
Total RNA levels did not change significantly between stages, but we did observe a decreasing trend ( Fig.
At the same time, from 1985–2010 hardwood growing stock displayed a decreasing trend.
Consistent with a high level of adherence to the study drug regimen, a substantial reduction in total and LDL cholesterol was observed in patients treated with rosuvastatin, resulting in a highly significant between-group difference ( Figure 2 and table 3 ).
For this method the 1% most highly significant SNPs (∼369 SNPs) for each trait separately (e.g., arsenic), based on p-value, were compared across all the GWA studies analysed per individual location.
Generally, there was a decreasing trend of evolutionary rate as the HGI decreased.
In addition, it has been already observed that the isotopic compositions of elements in different biological samples exhibited an increasing trend [17] , [27] – [28] , such as the δ 30 Si values for different organs of rice (stem < root < leaf < husk <grain) and the δ 13 C values for different tissues of gerbil (fat < liver < muscle < brain < hair).
The required weight on the bit may be significant (depending on the type of soil), and in several operating conditions, the exploitable load is limited due to friction, buckling or a reduced vertical depth [9] .
[15] investigated implicit self-esteem by examining preferences for name letters among primary school students in grades 2, 4, and 6 and found an increasing trend of implicit self-esteem in the primary school grades.
Our borderline significant heritability of plasticity suggests that there may be significant genetic variation in the trait, and hence selection would be able to act directly on response to rivals.
We also found evidence suggesting genetic variation in degree of plasticity in mating duration depending on exposure to rivals in one of the two populations, although this evidence was borderline non-significant and hence very weak.
We find no significant heritability of plasticity in mating duration in one population, but borderline significant heritability of plasticity in the second.
While highly significant, these studies examined disconnected microbial communities and used different extraction procedures, which limit comparisons [14] ..
There was a nearly significant negative association between the probability that a Phase Two egg was fertilized by an extra-pair male and the number of fledged chicks in the female's nest in Phase One, controlling for female as a random factor (GLMM with binomial errors, χ 2 (1) = 3.73, p = 0.054).
According to the p value found, the null hypothesis was accepted or rejected; in the latter case we concluded that the difference between the groups tested under different experimental conditions was statistically significant; p ⩽0.05 was regarded as statistically significant, p ⩽0.01 as highly significant and p ⩽0.001 as very highly significant.
In line with this finding, a Swedish nested case-control study observed a borderline non-significant increase in breast cancer risk associated with this ratio [14] .
All outcomes indicated an increasing trend of SK1 mRNA and protein expression levels in cancer tissues.
In further support of these observations, a qualitative ranking of the severity of kidney pathology showed a trend in the ability of meglumine to ameliorate nephritis, hydronephrosis, atrophy-fibrosis and glomerulosclerosis in female mice ( Table 1 ).
While we did not explore stamina at longer treatment times, starting at 22 weeks we observed a significant trend toward lower weight in meglumine-treated mice compared to control mice receiving plain water ( Fig. 2C ).
A very high correlation was found between the factor scores for pro- versus anti-inflammatory activity in venous blood samples (r = 0.98, Figure 1A ) and lower, but was still highly significant in hematoma fluid samples (r = 0.92, Figure 1B ).
relative tract volume over all connections) of the IP group (9.5·10 −4 ±0.5·10 −4 , p<0.07), but not the EP group (8.9·10 −4 ±0.4·10 −4 , n.s.), showed a trend of higher mean connectivity values than the control group (8.5·10 −4 ±0.1·10 −4 ).
Unlike cardiovascular parameters, which were unmodified except for an increasing trend in heart rate, some of the ventilation and oxygenation indexes as well as brain activity were significantly altered.
