The association of coronary heart disease (CHD) and CKD became marginally significant with a smaller effect estimate.

We regarded p < 0.05 as significant and p < 0.01 highly significant.

Likewise, an increasing trend in soybean AA concentration was documented from northern to southern regions in China 13 .

The highly significant proteins were categorised into five groups depending on their functions and association with the pathogenesis of steatosis: (i) apoptosis and autophagy, (ii) energy maintenance, (iii) anti-oxidative stress, (iv) liver injury (e.g. fat deposition) and (v) liver function improvement (e.g. nitrogen waste detoxicfication and folate-binding protein).

The averaged quantity denoted as a black line in both graphs suggests a decreasing trend for the additised fuel up to the last part closer to the outlet.

Animals fed a western diet showed a trend to lower locomotive activity compared to controls, but differences were not significant (Fig. 1a ).

However, the P values were <0.001 in 7 datasets, indicating that GR downregulation was highly significant in PCa tissues compared to normal tissues.

At 0.1% of GO-Au, we observed a decreasing trend (even though it was not statistically significant) in degradation of the scaffold, however at 0.25% and 0.5% concentrations of GO-Au, the degradation rate was significantly reduced in a dose dependent manner compared to naïve chitosan scaffold (Fig. 3A ).

Our data revealed that there was an increasing trend in the conductivity of scaffold with the inclusion of GO at a concentration of 0.5%, but this was not statistically significant.

High temperature friction test on SiOC-ZrSi 2 showed a decreasing trend in COF with increasing temperature to 400 °C.

The observed negative magnetoresistance shows an increasing trend from the saturation region towards the cut-off region, which can be attributed to an increase in carrier concentration driven by the gate voltage.

These intra-sarcomeric structural proteins may also be involved in stabilizing the SLs in the course of activation, as only the SLs in the long muscle showed a trend of increasing uniformity over the 600 ms isometric contraction period (Fig. 5B,C ).

Especially for the Rhine-Hesse dataset, the RF model shows highly significant spatial auto-correlation in the residuals with an MI of 0.32, whereas DL model shows no spatial auto-correlation in the residuals.

Moreover, studies have shown an increasing trend in the incidence of a highly malignant form of these cancers in recent years.

Additional genes that are co-expressed with the abovementioned ones in a highly significant fashion, such as MYO3A (myosin IIIA), IL17RB (interleukin 17 receptor B) and UBXN11 (UBX domain protein 11) (please see the complete network visualization described in the “Data Availability” section at the end of this report), and for which scarce information as related to carcinogenesis or HPV infection is available, are also attractive for further studies and as targets for intervention.

We previously showed that YAP was up-regulated in cSCC tissues and cell lines compared to normal controls, and its expression had an increasing trend from normal skin → precancerous lesions of actinic keratosis (AK) → carcinoma in situ (Bowen’s Disease) → well-differentiated cSCC → moderately and poorly differentiated cSCC 12 .

M4 showed a trend to increase in the first two days in the PBS system and then decreased slightly from day 3.

Preference of GC-rich and G/C-ending codons were observed in halophiles and barophiles whereas, a decreasing trend was reflected in psychrophiles and alkaliphiles.

The overall ranking predictions in T-M, P-M and T-P showed an increasing trend of CAA and decreasing trend of AGG from thermophiles to mesophiles to psychrophiles.

mir-302a isomiRs with unique seed sequences have indicated specificity in their target selection and therefore likely to be significant regulators of cellular differentiation 75 .

For plant height G effect was 8%, E effect was 73%, G × E effect was 18% (Table 3C ).The interaction between G × E was highly significant in case of grain yield.

Only a slight trend of correlation between CD32 expression on pTfh cells and total HIV-DNA levels in this subset was found, that disappeared after adjusting by the type of patient (with or without detectable HIV viremia).

Furthermore, the Oswestry Disability Index score also showed a trend towards a positive correlation 18 .

Compared to S −, S + post-treatment samples showed a trend towards increased Simpson diversity and evenness, while richness was lower in samples post-treatment when compared to samples from uninfected subjects (Fig. 3b ).

Changes in growth hormone measured at the end of intervals ( p = 0.06) and end of exercise ( p = 0.08) approached significance.
