These patterns of case-control differences in the frequency of blood lymphocytes with CAs remained highly significant for both UC cases and SCC cases.

A meta-analysis found a borderline significant and weak positive association between H . pylori infection and anaemia with a pooled OR of 1.15 (95% CI: 1.00, 1.32) 1 .

In fact, although the GO term skeletal muscle cell differentiation was highly significant, different TFs and transcriptional co-regulators primarily composed this GO term.

The leveling out of the total PA concentration in the control samples post 12 hrs and a decreasing trend in the metal treated cells resulted in overall low PA presence in the metal treated cells as compared to controls in the 24 h time point.

The smaller peaks for ν(S-S) and ν (C-S) were still visible, however a clear trend could not be seen due to the overlap with phosphate bands: E.g ., the δ (S-N = O) mode could hardly be observed in the difference spectra.

A pronounced trend towards transcriptional downregulation of proneural genes was observed in GB10 compared with the BT142 model (Fig. 5b ).

Results Experiment 1: Density-effect The inducer populations showed a highly significant negative relation between initial population size and cell division rate (ANOVA (linear fit): DF = 1; SS = 16.257; F-ratio = 610.6; p > F = 0.0001****) with the biggest populations (300 cells at origin) performing no more growth (Fig. 1(b) ).

Therefore, this phenomenon is likely to be significant on a global scale.

In skeletal muscle, the expression of genes encoding BCKDHA and BCKDHB only showed a trend to decrease in the db/db group (Fig. 6c–e ), and the total levels of BCKDHA was reduced in db/db mice (Fig. 6f ) (50% reduced compared to the control group).

Our data also showed better viral control and borderline significant lower viral load in subjects with major resistance mutations to NNRTIs who were on ART, compared to treatment-naïve subjects with major resistance mutations to NNRTIs.

In 2013 and 2014, the dry matter weights of the leaf, stem and sheath, and panicle, and the total weight at heading stage for rice with 30- and 35-day seedling ages showed a decreasing trend compared to that for rice with a 25-day seedling age.

Although there may be significant wet deposition of N during the spring and summer months, this flux into terrestrial ecosystems is on average lower than that produced via mineralization 35 , 36 .

According to the “trapping” model 1 , the effect of radiation damage on He diffusion is quite significant, corresponding to tens of degrees variations in closure temperatures across the range of typical apatite eU ([U] + 0.235[Th]) around 4–150 ppm.

Oki 100 and Ots 208b also departed from neutral expectation in Patagonian populations, but were only marginally significant and so were retained.

Similarly for mortality, a high proportion of countries reported a decreasing trend in men (30 out of 36) and increasing trend in women (16 out of 36).

The same correlation was computed for the lateralized beta power increase in the early time window of the 75% choice-trial condition, which was borderline significant (see section lateralized alpha and beta power ).

Despite that, there was a clear trend towards seasonality in all histological subgroups.

Based on this, even though there was only marginal significance, increased rGMV in the DLPFC linked to trait modesty is consistent with more modest individuals having increased self-regulatory abilities 14 , 18 , 19 .

For the amplitudes of all these five oscillations (i.e., delta, theta, alpha, beta, and gamma), the independent sample t-test conducted separately on each electrode did not reveal any significant results after the false discovery rate (FDR) procedure, although there is a clear trend that the alpha amplitudes of the healthy controls were larger than those of patients over parieto-occipital electrodes.

While the heterozygous TDP-43 Tg mice showed a trend of a decrease in body weight with increasing age, they did not show obvious signs of paralysis for over 2 years.

In our present study containing only HPV-negative HNSCC tumours, we found a moderate but highly significant downregulation of p16 INK4a suggesting rather expressional downregulation than complete loss or silencing of the CDKN2A gene.

Animals treated with AMP followed by AF also showed a trend similar to TBI animals treated with AMP only (Fig. 5a ).

The behavioral results indicated that the Control group showed a trend of more accurate responses to the valid compared to the invalid trials, while this effect was not seen in the stress group (neither Low nor High cortisol responders).

In comparison, Shanghai had decreasing trends for GPP max and EVI, but a slightly increasing trend for CUP (0.15 day year −1 ) and large increasing trends in population and nighttime lights (Figs S5 , S6 ; Table S4 ).

Furthermore, we observed a strong trend towards an improved outcome in patients who were prescribed higher dosages of BB (Fig. 2 ).
