Excerpts

Among socioeconomic factors, just lower rate of education had a marginally significant impact on the development of prehypertension only among men that agrees with the results of a national survey conducted among Iranian population [ 49 ].

In the present study, similar behavioural patterns were found in the NF and FL conditions, and the effect sizes found in both studies were also very similar, although in the present experiment the effects were only nearly significant, possibly due to a smaller sample size.

Model 4 showed a significant negative effect of calcium channel blockers on cAIx (a lower and therefore improved cAIx value), as well as a borderline significant negative effect of diuretics on cAIx, corroborating the significant positive effect of diagnosis.

After adjustment for age, ferritin, serum albumin, Kt/V and hs-CRP, age (β = 0.099; P < 0.001), serum albumin level (β = 0.409; P < 0.001) and Kt/V value (β = 0.209; P < 0.005) were independent predictors of higher Hb levels, while a higher serum hs-CRP level (β = -0.053; P = 0.056), with marginal significance, was an independent predictor of a lower Hb level on multiple regression analysis.

For those that lived in slums, the risk for infant death increased by 46% for every additional previous child death, however this relationship was only marginally significant at the 10% level.

In conclusion, wearing antioxidant glasses containing extracts of medicinal plants improve dry eye symptoms as well as clinical parameters of DED as indicated by a positive trend in primary and secondary outcome measures.

At 10 and 20 DAF, the expression of CtFAD2 in safflower seeds was lower and highly significant, respectively.

A significant altitude amplification trend in T MIN is detected in all the high-elevation regions tested (the Tibetan Plateau, Loess Plateau, Yunnan-Guizhou Plateau, Alps, US Rocky Mountains, and Appalachian Mountains), whereas a significant or a marginally significant altitude amplification trend in T MAX is observed in four of the high-elevation regions (significant: the Yunnan-Guizhou Plateau, Alps, and Appalachian Mountains; marginally significant: the Tibetan Plateau).

This might be significant because Akkermansia is known to enhance gut inflammation and in doing so may enhance infections caused by S . enterica [ 32 ].

Although just approaching significance in the unadjusted model, marginalization was associated with a reduced prevalence of ever having had vaginal sex (PR = 0.9; 95% CI: 0.8–1.0, APR = 0.9, 95% CI: 0.8–1.0).

This finding deserves further exploration as it suggests, but (because of the marginal significance and cross-sectional nature of the data) cannot prove the existence of a hypothetical window of opportunity to prevent seroconversion among SCY, primarily by providing early avenues to exiting the street.

A positive trend in TBW indicating more favorable climatic conditions was found for 24% of pixels on land, and for 5% a negative trend.

In all areas with a significant trend in vegetation activity (15% of the global land area), trend transitions were more common (74%) than monotonic trends (26%), trend breaks and a change from greening to browning occurred more frequently in the 2000s than in the 1980s [ 20 ].

Pixels with a positive NDVI trend and a neutral (including all pixels with a weak trend and SLR-R 2 or PWR-CD < 0.1) or negative TBW trend are referred to as diverging , to differentiate these greening areas from browning areas.

Abstract Background There may be significant difference between measurement of end-tidal carbon dioxide partial pressure (PetCO 2 ) and arterial carbon dioxide partial pressure (PaCO 2 ) during one-lung ventilation with low tidal volume for thoracic surgeries.

The stable heritability of alien chromosomes is theoretically and practically significant, therefore, the chromosome constitution and configuration pairing in RTCs and PMCs of M11003-3-1-15-8 was identified by cytological observations, respectively.

A decreasing trend in FoxP3 transcription between infected groups together with increasing parasite density between these groups in the skin also support the notion that FoxP3 might be associated with a protective role in this infection.

Only TLR9 was significantly up regulated in the early stages of infection and marginal significance was revealed for FoxP3 when both Groups 1 and 2 were compared with controls.

Although we must acknowledge the possibility of a false-positive finding, the improved renal function after CNI withdrawal is corroborated by the very highly significant reduction in chronic graft histopathology among those patients.

The TCM use prevalence exhibited a decreasing trend and was much higher among incident than among prevalent asthma.

No other effects or interactions approached significance.

Etiology showed a marginally significant P-value (0.0614) in the multivariate analysis for survival.[ 9 ] In the K-MESIAH development, taking etiology into account improves the model performance.

Regardless of the above, it should be noted that the q values resulting from GSEA of dietary treatments were generally only marginally significant (i.e. 0.01 < q < 0.05) as opposed to the developmental changes that were highly significant (i.e. q < 0.00001) ( S2 Table ).

The cortical porosity in the cKO bones showed a marginally significant decrease with exercise and approached normal levels.

These differences are all highly significant (chi-square tests on pairs of decades, or on the whole table).
