Excerpts

However, N leaf and Ф showed trends of increasing, while C i / C a showed a decreasing trend, which was similar to the results of the pot experiment. Ф and C i / C a varied between 0.52 and 0.77 (average = 0.59, SD = 0.06) and between 0.30 and 0.70 (average = 0.54, SD = 0.11) respectively.

Interestingly, this effect was statistically highly significant in the endotoxin-free group (following the increase in OVA uptake, presentation), whereas no significant difference appeared in the LPS-treated group (Fig. 6a ).

A p value < 0.05 was defined as significant, and a p value < 0.01 was defined as highly significant.

A marginally significant interaction and self-reports of unknown validity should give the reader cause for interpreting these results with some caution.

H 2 S alleviates renal inflammation in CRF rats Adenine treatment could induce a highly significant increase in plasma concentrations of some inflammatory cytokines, such as TNF–α and interleukin-1 beta (IL-1β) 33 .

For pre-diagnostic intake of fruits alone, combining studies with adjustments for clinical tumor stage led to a borderline significant association (HR = 0.77, 95% CI: 0.59–1.01).

The log-likelihood ratio between model 1 (clinical factors only) and model 2 (clinical factors and pretreatment radiomics features) was highly significant.

After we excluded smoking participants, a marginal significance for CdB as a risk factor for hyperuricemia remained ( P for trend = 0.08).

In other words, the absolute activation levels achieved after primary vaccination were much higher than after booster vaccination, and this difference was highly significant (Fig. 2A ).

Although the interaction effect for the compassion ratings in the EmpaToM task was only marginally significant, an exploratory mediation analysis was conducted, which showed that alexithymia does not mediate reduced compassion in the experimental vs. control group (see Supplement S7 ).

Such a decreasing trend demonstrates that the smaller pNPs tend to preferentially cross the endothelium monolayer of leaky vasculature compared to healthy vasculature much more than larger pNPs 87 – 89 .

As the sodium content showed a small, non-significant increase, a highly significant increase in Na + /K + ratio was present in SHR brain.

Our results showed that endogenous Slit2 increased in the surrounding peri-resection brain tissue post-SBI, Robo4 remained unchanged and Paxillin showed a decreasing trend.

Results Fruit color changes in Newhall and Cara Cara oranges during development Fruit growth and peel color changes were similar for both Newhall and Cara Cara oranges, with both size and citrus color index (CCI) showing an increasing trend during fruit development and maturation (Fig. 1 ).

P-values < 0.05 were considered statistically significant*, P-values < 0.005 were considered extremely significant**.

There were a total of 24 significant unconditional QTSs detected and the two or three highly significant QTSs for each trait were found to be located within or near annotated genes, most of which are predicted to have functions conceivably associated with target traits (Table 3 , Table 5 ).

However, they found a borderline significant association between HMW adiponectin and BW and a significant inverse association between the ratio of HMW to total adiponectin and BW (β = −19.2; p = 0.018).

There is a clear trend in the optical gaps of these three polymer films.

Mass-specific metabolic rate was lower in three species and one of those showed a marginally significant effect of the heating experiment.

In addition, the total potential distribution in almost all provinces was projected to show a decreasing trend.

The minor allele (C allele) frequency of rs12477677 was 46.48% in case group and 50.53% in controls, and the p -value of 0.056 after adjusting for age and gender was borderline significant (OR = 0.85, 95% CI = 0.72–1.00), but the p value was 0.224 after adjustment with Bonferroni correction.

A similar trend was observed for the 2013 Netherlands foundation, although with only marginally significant differences from the controls in the last generation.

However although not significant we did notice a small trend of increased number of effector memory CD8 + T cell in RA patients (Fig. 3 ).

The gene module was also enriched in genes that are nominally significant in at least one dataset ( \documentclass[12pt]{minimal} \usepackage{amsmath} \usepackage{wasysym} \usepackage{amsfonts} \usepackage{amssymb} \usepackage{amsbsy} \usepackage{mathrsfs} \usepackage{upgreek} \setlength{\oddsidemargin}{-69pt} \begin{document}$${P}_{sig}^{hyper}=2.3\times {10

Astrocytes treated with 1000 μM MnCl 2 showed an increasing trend in caspase-3 activity relative to the control, however the trend was not statistically significant at the p < 0.05 level (p = 0.3680) (Fig. 7b ).
