Both corrected and uncorrected scores were highly significant predictors of progression to dementia, even when adjusted for age and education.

Values of p<0.05 were considered statistically significant*,p<0.01 very significant ** and <0.001 highly significant ***.

Body condition Body condition indices of American Redstart adults were negatively related to graminoid cover (β = −0.59±0.19, P = 0.008), American Redstart juveniles were positively related to PC1 (“fragmentation”; β = 0.11±0.06, P = 0.049), Ovenbird juveniles were positively related to invasives (β = 0.49±0.25, P = 0.057), and Red-eyed Vireo juveniles were positively related to tree cover (β = 0.71±0.39, P = 0.09), though this relationship was marginally significant.

Figure S2 Box plots of the L/Ds ratio illustrating an overall trend diverging from 1∶1 through time.

The difference in percentage of HEU users between years (0.97%, 95%CI: −0.1% to 2.1%, p = 0.10) was marginally significant only at a relaxed 0.10 alpha level.

The proportion of Highly Engaged Users increased with network growth between 2011 and 2012 (with marginal significance), but the proportion of Minimally Engaged Users did not decline substantively.

Since the interaction effect was very close to statistical significance, and there was a clear trend observable in mid-anterior region similar to Experiment 1, we conducted post-hoc paired t-test at each ROI to examine this effect in further detail.

Here, when all three allelic combinations were statistically compared, those with the AA genotype showed a trend in reduced overall survival, and when two homozygous allelic combinations (AA vs.

It must be noted that the association between ERCC1 and survival was an observed trend, and not statistically significant.

A recent Egyptian study enrolling 190 HCV-infected patients, mainly with HCV genotype 4 and coinfected with Schistosoma mansoni , showed a highly significant positive association between spontaneous HCV clearance and CCR5delta32 [22] .

Treatment with GAGs significantly reversed or showed a trend towards reversal in the gene expression of these proteoglycans.

In the normal distribution hypothesis, the result of the Moran's I test showed spatial autocorrelation was highly significant, which indicated that HFRS cases in Jiangsu from 2001 to 2011 were significantly spatially autocorrelated.

Interestingly, a decreasing trend in β-sheet aggregation was observed by ThT assay, where the intensity of the signal decreased with the length of the lipid chain ( Figure 2H ).

The mean cumulative carbon flux shows an increasing trend over time ( Figure 8 ).

Higher-frequency oscillations (such as those associated with solar activity) [10] are contained in the residuals; e.g., EVs #7 and #8 define a 13-year period signal, while EVs #9 and #10 define an 18-year period signal (also identified through the slightly significant autocorrelation values at time lags 13 and 18 years in Fig. 2c ).

The non-linear regression curve exhibited a decreasing trend of LD decay with increase in the physical distance (kb) in all the six populations ( Figure 5B ) .

After PH, the hepatocyte density showed dynamic changes with an overall trend of a decrease in both genotypes of mice.

The variance covariance matrix for the mixed-effects model is given by Table 5 shows that all parameters in the model are highly significant.

The risk of bed-sharing next to a parent who smoked was largely confined to the younger infants while the risk of bed-sharing in the absence of these hazards was not quite significant among the younger infants (OR = 1.6 [95% CI: 0.96–2.7]) and seemingly protective among the older infants, albeit the numbers are very small.

We examined interaction terms: we found that the effects of total IgG to the malaria antigens we tested were not additive, and noted an interaction between malaria exposure index and total IgG to MSP3 of marginal significance ( Table S7 ).

In addition, in the subgroup analysis of case-control studies, an association of borderline significance between diabetes and AMD (OR, 1.23; 95% CI, 0.97–1.56) was presented if the study by Nitsch et al [13] was excluded.

When removing the studies conducted by Shalev et al and Hahn et al in the subgroup analysis of cohort studies, respectively, although the p values for diabetes and AMD became insignificant, the direction of ORs was kept and associations of marginal significance were revealed (removing study by Shalev et al: OR, 1.04; 95% CI, 0.99–1.10; Hahn et al: OR, 1.12; 95% CI, 0.98–1.29).

Timely or moderately delayed group was associated with significantly better survival in overall and cancer-specific analyses, but the association was only borderline significant in non-cancer-specific survival.

With respect to heavy alcohol consumption, the association was borderline significant with RR being 1.25 (1.00 to 1.56).

The unquantifiable – but likely small – error introduced by the use of zip codes in lieu of precise street addresses is unlikely to systematically affect any subgroup disproportionately, and our study nonetheless was large enough to detect highly significant differences.
