Excerpts

Within the emotional features, predictive power of an image’s valence and arousal differed across perceived referents (valence significant for knife; arousal significant for dolphin), and just failed to reach significance during imagery for the knife referent.

The Rb/Sr ratio exhibits a decreasing trend within the reddish LPS ( Fig. 3 ), reflecting the long-term intensification of aridification in the NIGP from ~2.4 to 1.8 Ma.

integrifolia in the good patches showed a trend to overwhelm that in the bad patches, although this tendency was not statistically significant ( P = 0.071, Fig. 2b ) when the within-patch quality contrast was low and the between-patch contrast was high (treatment L-H).

Comparing genes differentially expressed between the GSf-like and the GSr-like GSC groups with gene sets from the literature, highly significant overlaps were present with two of the Verhaak GBM subtype signatures (mesenchymal and proneural), two stem-cell signatures 23 24 , and a gene set related to oligodendrocyte differentiation 25 .

We obtain an increasing trend with the decreasing temperature for all investigated elements.

Such overlaps were extremely significant compared with a random one (see Table 1 ).

A quadratic relationship between the grain yield and the year of release was observed in 2013, which demonstrated a decreasing trend in the genetic improvements in the grain yield over the last two decades ( Table 2 ; Fig. 2a ).

aeruginosa counted by microscopy and the copy numbers of the 16S rDNA and mcyA genes detected by qPCR indicated highly significant correlation coefficients.

A decreasing trend of Fn and fibrin volumes ( Fig. 4g,h ), together with voids in co-culture compared to blood only conditions ( Fig. 5a ), suggest that fibroblasts actively degrade, remodel and integrate into dense blood clots.

Significant differences between donors were found for Fn, fibrin, CD41 and Fn fraction delocalized with fibrin, still showing highly significant differences between conditions.

As S substantially reduces the solubility of Cl in silicate melts under oxidizing conditions 17 , and given the comparatively high oxygen fugacity and S contents of MSV magmas, the S effect in these magmas is likely to be significant.

When the expression of PH-Tau is induced, correlating to later stages where PH-Tau becomes sarkosyl-insoluble, there is highly significant neuronal loss and astrocytosis in the hippocampus even as observed cognitive deficits are apparently alleviated and synaptic proteins are recovered.

Although within-year models with temporal components were not well supported ( Table 2 ), an increasing trend in seroconversion rate was observed from August to October in increase phases 2004 and 2007, and peak phases 2005 and 2008 ( Fig. 2f ).

The calculated thermal conductivity of DYZ and 4YSZ exhibits a decreasing trend with the increase in temperature from 295 K to 1873 K, as depicted in Table 5 .

The three additional genes were all borderline significant (adjusted p-value in the range 0.05–0.06) in the individual cd-ASE analysis of original (unperturbed) data, and two were detected in the original meta-cd-ASE analysis.

Such an increasing trend is only possible when the system contains phonons with mean free paths larger than the sample length.

A recent study showed that the mean annual air temperature increased by 0.36 °C per decade from 1983 to 2010, leading to an increasing trend of 0.31 °C per decade from 1986 to 2010 in the top 10 cm of soil in the subtropical forest 27 .

However, one should also note that the cognitive effects of memantine were modest, highly significant for count-hit discrepancy, with insignificant trends towards improvement on response time (RT) and target detection accuracy.

Highly significant correlations were found between relative edema volume and ferritin ( Fig. 5A-c ), relative edema ratio and ferritin at day 1 ( Fig. 5A-g ) and day 3 ( Fig. 5A-k-o ).

These results suggest that the homologous amino acids sequences contribute to the highly significant correlations between the antibody responses against VP1 of the various enteroviruses.

However, improper timing does not seem to be the major factor in this study, because, rates of successful pregnancy were not related to the number of matings which occurred within any given oestrus ( Table 1 ); in addition, there was a highly significant effect of social environment on the probability of maintaining a pregnancy after returning home from mating elsewhere ( Fig. 1 ).

At lower temperatures (305 and 315 K), the I-V showed a trend similar to that of the space charge limited current (SCLC), i.e., at a low (absolute) voltage, the slope was close to 1, but as the voltage increased (as the carrier injection increased), the slope became close to 2, due to interactions between the trapped carriers 21 36 37 38 .

Interestingly, although selection and algorithm termination in the simulations were based on the whole transcriptome and the dimensionality of the optimization problem was hence constant in all simulations, very small transcription factor regulons showed a trend to evolve faster in all cases ( Fig. 5 , left column).

Cr poisoning during cell firing mostly degrades Ni-YSZ anode and thus it is not quite significant in this study since we have deposited Ni-YSZ on pre-fired substrate.

Quantitative immunoprecipitation demonstrated that SOD1-knockdown HEK293 cultures show a highly significant 15–25 fold drop in misfolded HuWtSOD1 compared to non-knockdown HEK293 cells when incubated with conditioned media originating from mutant FUS, as well as wild-type and mutant TDP-43, transfected cells ( Fig. 2e,f ).
