During drought, the mean L s values of OsEPF1 OE plants showed a trend toward being lower than controls, but this was not significant (P = 0.4005).

Furthermore, GRSF1 knockdown caused a statistically significant increase in IL-6 production (0.75 pg/ml ± 0.0017, n = 3) compared to control cells (0.57 pg/ml ± 0.03, n = 3) and a negative trend in IL-8 production (5.35 ± 1.29 pg/ml, n = 3) compared to control cells (7.68 ± 0.349 pg/ml, n = 3).

In our study case, we have detected: an increase in b-value after impoundment, an increment of rate for shallowest events (h ≤ 10 km), an increasing trend of higher magnitude events and a possible trigger effect on local faults.

Consistent with these observations we found that AD patients showed increased neural activity over the right posterior middle temporal cortex compared to age-matched controls and that these patterns showed a significant trend in its associations with peak behavioral response in pitch perturbation paradigm.

There is a clear trend in Fig. 1a showing that membranes in inhibited cells (WT-DCMU) relax slower than membranes in uninhibited cells (WT) in dark conditions.

When considering both set of experiments performed using different initial amount of VCL, a clear trend can be observed: as the BIS concentration increases, the degree of aggregation observed after the Tp decreases (Fig. 4 ).

Approximating significance via permutation, we identify sets with significantly high pathway centrality as functional mediating pathways.

Our investigation of greenhouse gas (GHG) forced model simulation results show an increasing trend in PSA activity since the industrial era.

This is highly significant since mitochondrial function serves as a key regulator of intestinal epithelial cell homeostasis, and alterations in mitochondrial function are associated with inflammatory bowel disease 35 .

Excluding dog T4, there was an increasing trend in the levels of Cer d18:1 Cer species, even though most of these changes were not statistically significant (see Supplementary Fig.

Excluding dog T6, a possible trend in decreased levels of individual PE species with ≥4 double bonds, and a trend in increased levels of PE species with ≤3 double bonds can be seen (Supplementary Fig.

Results Candidate SNPs, genes and pathways from the previous literature None of the SNPs previously reported in the literature (see Introduction) had even a nominally significant effect on left-handedness in the UK Biobank dataset (Table 1 ), i.e. no P values were less than 0.05.

In order to study the dependence and reproducibility of the results obtained by the ML methods, we firstly trained and evaluated these models with the data set filtered to the morphological parameters being marginally statistically significant in the Kaplan-Meier analysis.

No other volume or surface-based parameter obtained marginally significant results in the Kaplan-Meier analysis.

As detailed in Supplementary Tables S1 and S2 , the total solid content (TS) exhibited a decreasing trend as the NaOH concentration increased.

Although not statistically significant, the concentration of apoA1 showed a trend for a decrease during culturing time in the apical (maternal) chamber (0.28 ± 0.20 ng/mL, 0.14 ± 0.07 ng/mL and −0.02 ± 0.12 ng/mL for day 1, 3 and 5, respectively; Fig. 3A ).

The observed low niche similarity of the Northern clade compared to the Southern clade is significantly not different by chance and vice versa (Fig. 6B , 5,6).

In addition, although it was not statistically significant, the renal expression of tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) showed a trend toward increase in the Ang II group compared with the vehicle group, and this increase showed a trend toward attenuation in the Ang II + RKT group (Fig. 4F ).

In addition, compared with the animals in the control group, we found a decreasing trend in the plaque lipid content of the mice treated with valsartan, although the difference was not statistically significant (Figs 2j and 4 , P > 0.05).

The effect of the paternity by paternal methylation term was either marginally non-significant (clock 5′-UTR) after FDR correction or far from significance for the other loci (Table 3 ).

This difference was apparent from 15 minutes after addition of Ringer’s solution (Supplemental Fig. 1A ) and was significant at 2 hours and 6 hours of incubation in cell lines and primary cells.

For example, the postulated effect of wind turbines on evapotranspiration showed an increasing trend of 0.2 mm h −1 during stable operation 12 ; however, there were no field data supporting this hypothesis.

Meteorological conditions in East Asia and Taiwan (1979–2017) The long-term analysis by the Central Weather Bureau (CWB) surface weather stations in Taiwan indicated an increasing trend of surface temperature and a decreasing trend of surface pressure (Fig.

Compared to the MSC-Ex treatment, however, UM-MSCs showed a trend towards a stronger reduction of the clinical symptom scores (Fig. 3B ).

Analysis of the Pearson’s correlation coefficient (r) for neuronal pairs revealed a small, yet highly significant increase in pairwise correlations in R6/2 mice at all imaging time points (WT, 88580 cell pairs at 6.5 weeks, 114020 cell pairs at 7.5 weeks, 111645 cell pairs at 8.5 weeks, 91655 cell pairs at 9.5 weeks, from 6 mice; R6/2, 143716 cell pairs at 6.5 weeks, 164325 cell pairs at 7.5 weeks, 211011 cell pairs at 8.5 weeks, 222328 cell pairs at 9.5 weeks, from 5 mice; Wilcoxon rank-sum test, WT vs.
