Excerpts

A fourth pair was marginally significant, while the fifth pair was not statistically different from its two alternatives.

Most of the top SNPs were not the same, although many that were nominally significant in one were also in the other.

The results showed that, just the predictors ranked at the second, third and fifth places had a marginally significant p-value (upper right and bottom plots of Figure S2 ).

An opposite temporal pattern was evident for mother-calf pairs, mother-calf and escort and mother-calf and more escorts groups, which showed a trend to increase in abundance during the second half of the season ( Fig. 3 ).

An alternative model, which is often recommended for count data, is the square root transformation [29] : (4) This produces less heteroscedastic residuals, though the White [30] and Breusch-Pagan [31] heteroscedasticity tests are extremely significant for all models and so I use robust standard errors clustered by journal for all regressions.

Although the rate of change was slower in carotenoids than in chlorophylls, carotenoid content also showed a decreasing trend with increasing salt stress, indicating that this trait could also serve as a useful indicator of NaCl stress in cotton.

Table 2 shows that the ratio between M1 and M3 length is higher in Batallones 3 than in Batallones 5 implying a possible trend towards relatively smaller M3, not observed on theoretically more advanced forms of Rotundomys .

Differences in albumen lysozyme concentrations between lines selected for contrasting fearfulness approached significance, and no effect was found for the total content of albumen lysozyme ( Fig. 3E ).

The B1 scenario shows an increasing trend with the highest increase in NPP by 1.57 PgC in the 2050s; however, NPP would level off after the 2050s with an overall increase by 1.2 PgC (2.2%) in the 2090s compared to the 2000s ( Figure 8 ; right panel).

By adding covariates, such as weight and age, knee and ankle symmetry remain as marginally significant predictors of athletic success at the highest level of elite performance.

In patients with good glucose control, microaneurysm formation showed a decreasing trend, but the disappearance rate was not directly connected with glucose control [41] , [42] .

Notably, gstp1 showed a trend towards induction in both analyses (and was induced at other time points), but the high biological variation in the day 4 samples precluded statistical significance for both array data and qRT-PCR results.

Age, systolic blood pressure and attaining complete or partial remission approached significant values with the endpoint.

There was a significant trend of increasing AFDW with time, however without an increase in chlorophyll a ( Figure 6 ).

FDR analysis provided highly significant associations ( P-values ≥ FDR) among which significant P-values from ≥2 and lower ≤ FDR; this technique has been widely applied to GWAS analyses; see review by van den Oord [37] .

When comparing AS patients to general population subjects with adjustment for age, IBD, and prior NL, AS remained a highly significant risk factor with a HR of 2.1 (95%CI 1.8 to 2.4).

It is significant to note in this study the first report of the highly significant reduction in MS4A12 gene expression in adenomatous polyps.

Although the overall SL content showed a trend towards depletion in the YNB-grown cells, this change was not statistically significant ( Fig. 2A ).

Moreover, weight loss was associated with increased cardiovascular and all-cause death, whereas weight gain showed a trend toward improved survival.

Another notable aspect of this study is that lower fT4 level was a highly significant predictor of infection-related mortality in PD patients.

This approach is an unsupervised method that gives an overall trend about the data and inspection about outliers.

However, in agreement with our results, two recent studies from Denmark [38] and Romania [42] found that G9P[8] is the most predominant genotype, with an increasing trend over time.

While water As was not associated with eGFR, we observed a marginally significant negative association between total uAs and eGFR in the total sample; this association remained marginally significant in the 2003 sample, while the association was negative but not significant in the 2001 sample.

Although it had relatively short half-life in serum, it was shown to be highly significant anti-tumor effect by inhibiting ERK pathway in A431 xenograft model.

Initially, we compared the 29 variants showing nominally significant detection frequency differences between the two platforms with the remaining 83 variants.
