Excerpts

During summer, Tmax showed a negative trend over the UJRB, and increased significantly during autumn mainly in the eastern region of the UJRB.

Under cardiac stress, NV-5297-treated HD mice experienced an increased pS6/S6 ratio in the striatum and a strong trend toward increased ratios in the heart ( Fig 8A and 8B ).

While the authors state that the results are indicative of an important trend only, I’m not certain this is a strong enough argument to draw some of the conclusions made in this paper.

Based on the calculated p values, there was no significant differentiation between Nyanza-Rift Valley, Nyanza-Western, Eastern-Rift Valley and Eastern-Nyanza Crotalaria populations, while all other comparisons revealed highly significant population differentiations.

This means that it risks omitting certain issues which may be significant to the families but are not covered by the survey.

2007, whose omission leads to a slightly significant overall effect, removal of the other studies does not lead to a significant change in the overall effect ( Fig 5B ). 3.14.

Major Depression Disorder (MDD) is one of the most important mental health conditions due to an increasing trend in prevalence in the general population.

If the authors wish to highlight trends that approached significance in the figures and table, they should use a different designation/color from those that are <0.05. 4.

When comparing the catches on sticky traps, spider abundance showed a trend to a positive response to dead wood.

Compared with the control group, the relative expression levels of both IL-6 and IL-17 were reduced in the miR-31 agomir group ( P <0.05, P <0.001), with a decreasing trend with time ( Fig 7E and 7F ).

However, several Gus showed an increasing trend during the study period (e.g, Nowon-gu and Dobong-gu).

Of these, two studies showed highly significant reduction in milk somatic cell count in two studies of healthy woman and five studies of mastitis patients.

3) Table 3: There is quite significant difference of risk among vaccinated with 5 or more comorbidities compared to unvaccinated as the authors discussed.

For the subgroup IBD-female segment 2002–2014 a decreasing trend (APC = − 0.9) that was slightly less pronounced for the UC-female subgroup (APC = − 0.1); but neither trend was significant.

We see a slightly increasing trend in the number of deaths and an approximately stable trend in the CMR between 2000 and 2019.

From the experimental results, it can be seen that the AFR-BERT model shows a decreasing trend in each performance evaluation metric after removing the BiLSTM, MFL, and MAL modules, separately.

The influence of characteristics of a pregnancy on its detection We found a slight trend of an increased hit frequency (frequency of coverage of pregnancies by signals) with increasing age and birth order.

Heavy metal source analysis Correlation analysis The elemental correlations were significant or extremely significant, indicating homology or compound pollution among the elements [ 29 , 30 ].

As it was expected [ 30 , 31 ], there was highly significant correlation between plasma levels of CRP and AAT from COVID-19 patients ( Fig 2A ).

We also found that there is a decreasing trend in the prevalence of underweight, particularly among those aged 60–79 years.

Positive means indicate an increasing importance from T1 to T2, while negative means reflect a decreasing trend.

Sun et al showed a borderline significant lower survival rate for pancreatic cancer patients with AT levels below the median [ 31 ].

However, the χ 2 statistic is sensitive to sample size, and its p value might be significant, although the predicted model represents the data well [ 44 , 45 ].

Statistical tests (Wilcoxon rank-sum test, FDR corrected, p < 0.0005) reveal highly significant unique peaks, matching the expected external task-specific frequencies ( Fig 4 ).

Discussion Our large abdominal surgery cohort revealed an increasing trend in the number of laparoscopic surgeries being performed.
