Excerpts

The ASR trend curves for invasive carcinoma incidence, which show an increasing trend in the last six years, and those of carcinoma in situ incidence, which show a decreasing trend in the last nine years of the series, can be compared with the mortality curves across the same period.

Using the Joinpoint Regression Program, we calculated the annual percentage incidence changes and our analyses show that cervical cancer incidence decreased up to 2008, increased up to 2012 and decreased again thereafter, a significant trend in all age groups from 25 years.

When analyzing all ages combined, the ASR curve for invasive tumor incidence ( Fig 2 ) presented a decreasing trend for incidence from 1996 to 2015.

Identification of differentially expressed genes The differential expression analysis showed a total of 58 DEGs with a q value ≤ 0.05 and 31 with a trend towards significance (q ≤ 0.10).

Generally, visual inspection suggested that more clicks were done in real 3D tasks, and the number of mouse clicks had an increasing trend in the terrain profiles tasks ( Fig 8 ).

Regarding the speed of responses, a clear trend was identified with respect to the specific task types.

Dissolved oxygen measurements were also significantly different among the study sites (Kruskal-Wallis test, H 2,15 = 12.50; p < 0.01), with a decreasing trend similar to salinity.

• Avoid the expression “marginally significant” • Due to the small sample size of approx. 10 surgeries per year I would like the authors to give more information on comparability of the study cohort with regard to surgical outcome and survival rates. • page 15: please avoid the term “insignificant interaction”.

Although not tabulated, all estimates are statistically highly significant.

However, an increasing trend in the difference in the collection time was observed along time, reaching 2 h and 46 min at week 12 (mean collection time was 06:56 for women in group LOW and 09:42 for women in group HIGH; p = 0.024).

No measure even approached significance except comprehension.

There were also two marginally significant 3-way interactions with Group (Group x Presentation Orientation x Imageability and Group x Presentation Orientation x Biphone Frequency).

Thus, while individual results must be regarded with caution due to the small sample size and marginal significance, they cohere together as predicted, and suggest that orientation sensitivity can be used as a marker of reading procedures and to unmask reading procedure differences in highly skilled readers.

In 30‰ salinity, growth rates were generally higher in pH 9 with a decreasing trend with increasing temperatures.

Within each tested pH, there was a slightly increasing trend in growth rate when the incubation temperature increased from 15 °C to 37 °C.

In age-stratified analyses ( Table 5 ), there was a significant trend for greater effect size in younger participants for all-cause mortality [HR 1.30 (1.24–1.36) <50 years-old vs 1.15 (1.13–1.16) ≥60 years-old] and cancer mortality [HR 1.21 (1.13–1.30) <50 years-old vs 1.15 (1.13–1.18) ≥60 years-old].

There is good reason to believe previously reported regional stillbirth rates may be significant underestimates.

Concerning the dependent variable warmth, we observed a marginally significant interaction effect of negative instrumentality (i.e., detrimental diverse vs. instrumental diverse condition) on the relationship between instrumentality-based pro-diversity beliefs and warmth ( b = -0.328, SE = 0.167, p = .052, CI 95% = -0.659, 0.003).

We observed a small trend such that male faculty tended to receive higher ratings (of 0.10 points) of overall teaching quality than female faculty.

Following Chen [ 64 ], the cutoffs for a practically significant decrease in fit employed here are Δ CFI ≤ -0.01, supplemented by Δ RMSEA ≥ 0.015, or Δ SRMR ≥ 0.03 (where the fit index of the restricted model is always subtracted from the fit index of the unrestricted model).

Analysis of morphological and physiological responses over cultivation time displays a clear trend as displayed in Fig 7 : Pellet diameter ( Fig 7A ) is reduced in cultivations with glass particles, while pellet compactness (Eq ( 5 )), Fig 7B ) is slightly increased.

In Table 5 , t-statistics confirmed that all paths except one were highly significant.

We agree that linking the different elements of 1) strategy use, 2) NF performance (self-regulation) and 3) symptom outcomes is highly significant.

Simultaneously, the linear relationship between several good SPAD value-derived indexes (Y s ) and apparent N supply of the field (N x ) was still significant or extremely significant in the Qyou6 leaf value model.

TNF-α followed a decreasing trend.
