Mortality during 30-day follow-up was already markedly higher than in both other groups and these differences were highly significant after a one-year follow-up.

When looking at the absolute frequency of youth reporting violence exposure, females in schools with a lower FRLP showed a trend toward higher exposure proportions than males within that FRLP category.

In fact, we confirmed that GBE treatment (100 μg/ml) for 3 days ameliorated significantly neurite count (+79%), total neurite length (+75%), attachment (+138%) and endpoints (+64%) parameters and showed a positive trend to increase soma count and the extent of neurite branching compared to the untreated SH-SY5Y cells (Figs 3 and 4 ).

For instance, retinal vasomotor function is, as part of the cerebral circulation, largely dependent on local nitric oxide (NO) production.[ 31 , 32 ] Asymmetric dimethylarginine (ADMA), an endogenous NO synthase inhibitor, is a known independent cardiovascular risk factor and has been shown to influence arteriolar and venule diameter.[ 33 ] A comparison of obese and moderately-trained subjects as well as athletes showed a trend to lower ADMA in individuals with higher physical fitness.[ 34 ] This observation may point towards an NO-mediated mechanism for fitness-dependent blood flow measurements in the FAZ area.

In this regard, the utility of SNP-biomarker profiles for long-term disease prevention or disease prophylaxis, even if modest compared to non-SNP profiles, is still quite significant.

Changes in sap flow at different slope positions It is evident from Fig 4 that the daily variations in sap flow of Salix psammophila show similar trends at all slope positions, but the sap flow rates of the same slope position show slight variations because of the differences in branch diameters, with an overall trend of D3 > D2 > D1.

The daily accumulation changes in sap flow showed a trend of P1 > P3 > P2, and within the same diameter range, the sap flow at P1 was significantly different from that at P2 and P3, whereas the sap flow at P2 and P3 did not vary significantly.

Conversely, the number of face rubbing behaviors of 6-OHDA rats did not change significantly compared with sham rats in this study, although 6-OHDA rats showed an increasing trend in the number of face rubbing behaviors compared with sham rats.

In recent years, this detection rate has been declining in Brazil, with a reduction of 9.4% between 2007 and 2017, whereas the northeastern region has shown an increasing trend (24.1%) of AIDS detection [ 7 ].

High amounts of PUFA detected in one quarter of the samples indicate a positive trend of usage of PUFA-rich oils.

This bias however will not affect our main findings as assigning say all purchase to a single adult will further increase the extent of substitution effect and reinforce our argument that contribution of wealth effects to change in alcohol consumption is almost insignificant relative to substitution effect.

A positive slope in the grid corresponds to a positive trend in SOCD change over the 13 years, and a negative value corresponds to a decreasing trend.

Moreover, the mean annual SOCD values during 2000–2015 showed an increasing trend, with a higher mean value in meadow and a lower mean value in steppe.

Line 382 – Table 2: the interaction between Type and Accent is nearly significant if one sticks to the infamous 5% threshold.

We find highly significant differences between patients and controls in occupancy rates of the resulting clusters.

I have a few requests: 1) The authors should probably refrain from referring to "marginally significant" results as this is technically a violation of frequentist statistical approaches from most points of view, although this is an admittedly minor issue. 2) 2)More importantly, it would be useful for the authors to provide both confidence intervals on point estimates and effect size information.

To account for multiple testing, p-values ≤ 0.01 were considered as significant and p-values >0.01 and ≤ 0.05 were considered as borderline significant.

Despite these small percentages, an increasing trend of households in need for caregivers of older persons has been observed.

Results The estimation results of ( Eq 1 ) for the three birth cohort groups (the older, middle and younger birth cohorts) summarized in Table 2 suggest a steepening of the SES-mortality gradient with an increase in the year of birth: There is no significant SES-mortality gradient for the older cohorts, a marginally significant gradient for the middle cohorts, and a significant and strong negative gradient for the younger cohorts.

RPC density in vitro is highly significant because the number and proximity of cell-cell interactions greatly influence its collective cell behaviors [ 58 – 61 ].

In addition, an increasing trend has been observed in the incidence of oral cancer among Taiwanese men [ 6 ].

Autofluorescence results showed a trend of decreasing RR with increasing cell confluency, concurring with the trend observed through standard bio-chemical assays.

The maximum deviation of the price of an individual 2GTKI from the mean price was 10% so it is unlikely that the difference between the simple average and weighted average would be practically significant.

In contrast, in the model comparing derivational to orthographic and semantic priming, the interaction between Set and Prime Type was significant for the comparison between morphological and orthographic priming ( b = 0.0443, SE = 0.0208, t = 2.139), while it was only marginally significant for the comparison between morphological and semantic priming ( b = 0.0393, SE = 0.0208, t = 1.891).

Clonal fragmentation increased total mass, floating mass and submerged mass only in S, but had not impact on biomass in W or T (significant or marginally significant physical space × clonal fragmentation effect in Table 1 , Fig 1A–1C ).
