The marginally significant p-value (0.098 for MZ and enamel caries) suggests a decreased Shannon diversity for those subjects who had caries in enamel (Supplementary Fig. 7 ), revealing that overall diversity is not shaped by types of lesions and genetic backgrounds.

It is possible that even when identical operational settings are used there may be significant divergence between instruments in estimated mean sizes and size distribution for the same biological suspension 30 .

Moreover, the difference between the maximum value and minimum value of the particle number, observed in the heat supply periods, is quite significant, whereas that in the period with no heat supply is not significant (42367 vs 6188).

In this case, both groups of states identified by QCD had highly significant p-values: \documentclass[12pt]{minimal} \usepackage{amsmath} \usepackage{wasysym} \usepackage{amsfonts} \usepackage{amssymb} \usepackage{amsbsy} \usepackage{mathrsfs} \usepackage{upgreek} \setlength{\oddsidemargin}{-69pt} \begin{document}$$p=5.44\times 1{0}^{-19}$$\end{document} p = 5.4

Interestingly, while there was little effect on synapses when astrocytes were stimulated for a brief period, there was a slight trend for reduced PSD95 expression, suggesting a bimodal effect of astrocyte stimulation.

Although there was a considerable reduction in mean breeding probability between 1995–2004 (mean ± SE: 0.88 ± 0.07) and 2005–2014 (0.73 ± 0.11) of light-mantled albatrosses, a significant trend was not detected, presumably due to high inter-annual variability (Fig. 2c ).

However, we expect the FTJ cartilage matrix to be able to reorganize itself, as the T2 * curve showed a decreasing trend (recovery) after 3,500 km.

difficile colonization- and cytotoxicity-associated outcomes were in our case treatment specific and bacterial community associations were highly significant.

There was a decreasing trend in maximal delta power seen at the beginning of the LP from MET to PRO (Fig. 3A ) reflecting decreasing homeostatic sleep drive in the LP towards the active stages (PRO and EST) of the cycle.

Medium size zooplankton δ 13 C showed a slightly increasing trend with latitude.

To date, there has been an increasing trend among women in developing countries to delay their first pregnancy.

In a sensitivity analysis, subjects exposed to ≥ 85 dBA had an elevated risk of hyperglycaemia (ARR = 1.60; 95% CI: 0.97, 2.64; p = 0.066) than those exposed to < 85 dBA, but the result was marginally significant.

Together with the gradual increase of the RiskScore, the methylation level of the samples at the 17 CpG sites increased gradually, whereas the overall survival showed a decreasing trend (Fig. 7A ).

In contrast to Bracciano, the eruptive events occurred in the same time span in the Sacrofano area do not define a clear trend.

In contrast, the reward option in the R treatment has no significant effect on the contribution and the punishment option in the P treatment has a marginally significant effect on the contribution (Table 3 ).

The pathways are ordered on the basis of p value computed by a Fisher’s exact test ranging from 0 to 1 which accounts from highly significant to not significant, respectively.

2 ), NDVI shows a decreasing trend from the oasis boundary to the desert, which trend is more obvious with the analysis scale from 90 m to 330 m (Fig. 2a,b ).

When the analysis scale is over 540 m, TCI shows an increasing trend while NDVI shows a decreasing trend (Fig. 4c ).

Although this GWAMA also included participants from other ethnic groups, the direction of association for the same reference alleles were largely similar between the South Asian and multi-ethnic samples (concordance of 70% and 92% for all variants, and nominally significant SNPs respectively, data not shown) 9 , which substantiates the use of this dataset.

Moreover, levels of TGF-β1 and amphiregulin in lung tissue showed a trend towards an increase in GP-SLIT treatment in the presence of VitD3 (Fig. 6E ).

The 200-μl group also had similar miR-451a concentration as in 50-μl and 100-μl, but for miR-23a-3p and miR-103a-3p it showed a trend towards normalization.

Current study showed an increasing trend of CAT, APX and GPOX activity with increase in days of preservation in NS and SN set.

Flavonoid content does not show any significant change with increasing days, however in distilled water set from 4DS onward a decreasing trend was observed explaining inability to overcome generated stress.

These factors work together to cause the average LST to show an increasing trend over the winter.

The Augmented Dickey–Fuller test was non-significant ( p = 0.3) so the time series is considered as non-stationary with an increasing trend over time.
