Excerpts

The B/H showed a low variability range with an increasing trend with age (R 2 = 0.996) (Panel 4 in Fig 5 ).

All calculated correlations among plasma protein concentrations were highly significant (close to 0.99).

When analyzing the maximum response components with ballast tank liquid volume as the horizontal axis, it is found that as the liquid volume increases, the frequency response amplitudes of roll and yaw under high sea states show a decreasing trend.

The effect was highly significant with imbibition immediately after plasma treatment and became less so as time increased between plasma treatment and imbibition, although this lessened significance appeared to result from greater variability in the samples, both control and plasma-treated.

In sea state level 6, all conditions show an increasing trend, with Con2, Con3, and Con4 increasing by 2.02%, 0.46%, and 2.71%, respectively.

The contents of Cr, Cu, As, Pb and Zn in MLS were significantly exceeded those in MLZ and MLX, which reason was that long-term storage of CG due to weathering and rainwater leaching promoted the activity of harmful heavy metals in CG, some of them were dissolved into the water body or soil with precipitation and infiltration, continued to migrate and enrich, resulting in the increase of heavy metal content in the soil [ 13 , 14 ], and it showed a decreasing trend with the increase distance from CG dump [ 19 , 22 ], aligning with observations by Lu et al.

By contrast, the signal intensity was still maintained at a lower level at 24h after injection of Fe 3 O 4 @Au-C225 composite targeted MNPs, and showed a decreasing trend with progression of time.

We found a clear trend in the median R 2 McFadden measures, characterized by higher values in the center of the country, transitioning into lower values towards the East and the West.

Interestingly, we found highly significant and clinically relevant differences in relapse and survival rates between genetically stratified subgroups.

The only exception concerned the outcome of intention to quit, where the interaction between intervention mode and education was nearly significant.

This study suggests a possible trend to referral bias in cohorts of ALS patients drawn solely from referral or hospital databases.

At each cutoff, we calculated k , the number of FUSION hits that replicate in GTEx (GTEx p-value < 0.01), out of the total number of nominally significant GTEx hits, K .

Older age resulted in a decreasing trend in undernutrition and increasing in excess weight, and these trends were maintained only in women study subjects as reported by Kroll et al .

The serum TC showed an increasing trend in men in comparison to women, along increasing of age, BMI and TG.

The combined analysis of variance revealed a significant genotype × location interaction for grain yield and a highly significant difference in days to 50% flowering and days to 95% maturity.

Though, the triple interaction accounting for all three ecosystem indicators is positive (albeit weakly significant and economically small).

In the longitudinal study on the university students’ obesity detection rates, an increasing trend year by year was observed.

In addition, DMF-culturing increased hepatic differentiation, as indicated by a 1.9-,3.1- and 5.6-fold induction of the transcript levels of HNF4 , CAR and CEBPα , while PXR and SHP exhibited a positive trend ( Fig 6C , S3 Table ).

Of these, we revealed 274 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) with a highly significant correlation with polyunsaturated fatty acids percentage between the comparison groups based on the ratio of PUFA/SFA.

For the sit-reach test, both males (F = 11.032, p < 0.01) and females (F = 144.36, p < 0.01) exhibited a decreasing trend over time, with no significant difference between 2019 and 2020 in either group.

However, 48 hours treatment later, the GUS activity of the transgenic plants under the darkness treatment showed obvious increase by 26% when compared with that of the control, and the transgenic plants under the low temperature treatment exhibited the extraordinarily significant increase of GUS activity by about 14-fold comparing with the control ( Fig 4 ).

humilis fruits, the activity of NADP-ME exhibited a decreasing trend from 8 to 18 WAF and then increased as the fruits matured ( Fig 2C ).

The 210 Pb dating profiles from the four nest profiles generally followed the expected decline in activity with depth, an encouraging trend for establishing reliable chronologies.

The annual high shoot density ratio under the SSP3-7.0 scenario exhibits fluctuations until the mid-2060s, after which a decreasing trend is observed.

Thus, we consider that BaP-triggered oxidative stress may be significant in the liver tissues of P . olivaceus .
