Additional analyses show that punishment received for defection does have a highly significant effect with noise if specified as a continuous variable.

The difference in background characteristics between teenage girls and adult women were statistically highly significant.

The consumption of citrus juice (containing vitamin C), which enhances the body’s ability to absorb iron, approached significance as being protective against anemia (OR = 0.44, 95% CI 0.18–1.07, Table 2 ).

Risk factors for HEV infection, included: having at least two children under the age of 5 years (OR 2.1, 95%CI 1.1–4.3), having another household member with jaundice (OR 2.4, 95%CI 0.90–6.3) and, with borderline significance, living in the neighbourhoods of Riad (OR 3.8, 95%CI 1.0–1.8) or Ridina (OR 3.3, 95%CI 1.0–12.6).

Tests with p-values between 0.05 and 0.10 were termed “nearly significant” as these levels also indicate a strong association.

Although we did not detect significant difference between the groups (p = 0.17), a clear trend towards increased levels was evident in the ‘late’ group.

A highly significant positive correlation was detected between Alc and K, Alk and Nt, O and L.

The highly significant correlation between changes in blood levels of NR and NAD+ supports the expectation that NR serves as a precursor to NAD+.

Kurumboor noted that the categorized post-operative pancreatic fistulas using the ISGPF definition indicated a decreasing trend in clinically significant pancreatic fistulas and claimed that the uniformity of results reporting may cause heterogeneity regarding the effects of prophylactic SAs [ 27 ].

The diffusion coefficients D W and D T , present, also in this plane, an increasing trend for wider range of apatite inclination.

Although only 4 each of urethral and vaginal cytobrush samples were obtained, thus limiting the statistical power of the study, an increasing trend for CD4+ T cells was observed subsequent to intranasal immunization in both urethral and vaginal mucosa ( Fig 10 ).

To reduce plot complexity, intersections between transcription factor and canonical pathway / hallmark gene sets upregulated in day 5 CoRL were filtered for connections with at least four member genes in addition to limiting gene sets and genes whose enrichment/dysregulation was highly significant (FDR ≤ 0.001).

These latter data suggest that the phospho-SMAD ratio is tightly regulated during cardiomyogenesis, but that the combined treatment of the cells with both AA and BMP2 can cause a transient and highly significant increase in phospho-SMAD1/5/8.

Compared to 0.05 Gy-, 0.1 Gy-, 0.25 Gy- and non-irradiated groups, LSK cells and HSCs exposed to 1.0 Gy showed a trend of 5–10% increase in apoptosis without reaching a statistical significance.

SHR exhibited a highly significant decrease in TERT mRNA levels by 12 months.

Regarding heat, Rotterdam’s adaptation strategies need to focus on an increase in the overall number of (non-consecutive) heat days and both an increasing number as well as an increasing duration of heat spells ( Fig 6 ), although there is a substantial variability over the 20 th century that hampers the assessment of a clear trend.

The green quadrant I characterizes a positive trend in both mean surface air temperature and precipitation, which includes 72.6% (n = 8532) of all cases.

Indeed, when we exclude the variables birthweight and stunted at 1y from the regressions, the size of the association between mother’s height and the incidence of catch up increases in all the regressions, but it remains insignificant in the first regression and is only marginally significant in the final regression at the 10% level.

However, although there was a significant difference in study 1 ( p = 0.040), it was close to the margin of statistical significance.

For women younger than 50 years of age at baseline with low alcohol consumption (≤ 3 drinks/week), we observed a nearly 70% reduction in risk of overall mortality that was borderline significant after adjusting for confounders, HR <50 : 0.32, 95% CI: 0.10–1.05 ( Fig 1 ) In contrast, compared to non-drinkers, women ≥65 years of age who consumed >3 drinks/week had non-statistically significant 30% increased risk for overall mortality (HR O : 1.38, 95% CI: 0.83–2.30) and a significant two-fold increase in risk for non-breast cancer mortality (HR NBC : 2.42, 95% CI: 1.22–4.82) after adjusting for confounders ( Fig 1 ).

It can be seen that C Dτ of each car in the same configuration depends on the location, and there is a decreasing trend along the length of the train.

We observed an overall trend of a higher frequency of GCC protein expression in the cytoplasmic region when compared with the membrane-apical region of tumor cells.

It can see from Fig 6A that, the national average degree showed a trend of first rise and then decline in the macro level during the period from December 1999 to December 2015.

There were also significant differences in the level of mHTT between moderate and premanifest HD in both sample sets, however the differences between moderate and early HD only approached significance while early vs premanifest HD were not significant ( Table 3 ).

The phase-lag effect of fine FA5010 ( α 1 = 0.83) and FA7515 ( α 1 = 0.71) is highly significant.
