Excerpts

Based on the review of all tcMRgFUS procedures and trans-disciplinary discussion, preoperative findings were classified in three different groups according to their relevance (in terms of energy absorbing structures or sensitive tissues) for the eligibility and treatment planning: Group 1: not significant or scarcely significant, if they should not influence the treatment planning or require any NPRs.

As opposed to other indications CFR-PEEK screws show more loosening than titanium in this series with two potentially underlying reasons: a probably stronger bacterial adhesion on CFR-PEEK in vivo as shown by a statistical trend in vitro and instrumentation of spondylytic vertebrae.

Kinetics were similar for severe and non-severe individuals, while ICU participants showed a trend towards faster and higher development of neutralizing activity; however, differences were not statistically significant.

Similarly, unbalanced gender distribution among groups seems to be unrelated to neutralization titer, although barely significant differences were observed when maximal titers of neutralization were compared (Fig. 3 C), the kinetics and plateau of female and male participants were similar when a longitudinal analysis was performed (Fig. 3 D).

All the paths between cognitive test and VRAT performance were significant or marginally significant and coherent in the direction.

The correlation analysis of carotenoid content between different seasons showed highly significant correlation in all the three genetic backgrounds.

Paraxanthine for both concentrations and high dose theophylline treatments also showed an increasing trend in porosity.

Further, glutelins also showed an increasing trend of accumulation with kernel development indicating that like zeins, they also serves as a storage protein and may act as an energy reservoir for mature seeds.

Pairwise differences were performed using Tukey's range test, and a value of P < 0.001 was considered extremely significant.

Results showed a trend toward a significant correlation between greater Labyrinth-VR achievement with greater improvement in the MDT outcome, such that participants who progressed to higher levels of wayfinding challenge also realized greater gains in LDI ( r 20 = 0.37, p = 0.10, Fig. 4 ).

The steady growth of CO 2 during the dry season (November to May) indicates a decreasing trend of vegetation uptake in the neighbouring regions (Fig. 4 a).

The water vapour variation in the upper troposphere and lower stratosphere is highly significant due to its impact on global warming.

While the results are largely concordant, we did find a small, but significant number of genomic regions with low baseline methylation (< 20%, CHG and CHH primarily) that showed highly significant decreases in methylation (based on Z-statistics), that would be easily overlooked looking only at mean shifts in methylation (Fig. 4 ).

The effect did not differ significantly by age-group, even if the data showed a trend towards an increasing effect with increasing age.

After the FDR correction, the correlation between the phi 2 on the centro-parietal regions in sync/follower trials of the usual-pair condition and the empathy score in EQS was marginally significant, but other correlations were not significant.

Treatment with TVX induced a decreasing trend of the vascular markers CD32b and CD206 (Fig. 2 b, c and d) in relation to control-treated models.

Correlation analyses showed that this increase of the % eukaryote sed aDNA damage with increasing subseafloor depth was highly significant for each dataset (Table 2 ).

Neither the seropositivity rates nor the reactivity index (RI) values showed an increasing trend toward the age groups of the patients (Supplemental Tables S2 and S3 ).

An increasing trend in LDH was further observed for 10 μM TVX compared to control-treated models after 48 h and 72 h (Fig. 4 a).

Altered methylation was also observed in glutamate ionotropic receptor NMDA type subunit 1 ( GRIN1 ; rho = − 0.28, p = 0.059) and synaptic Ras GTPase activating protein 1 ( SNYGAP1 ; rho = 0.26, p = 0.079), although borderline significant with spearman correlations (Fig. 5 B).

In the path analysis, however, SShD played no significant role in predicting perceived attractiveness for any group of raters except for a marginally significant path for Asian Vietnamese female raters and their assessment of male stimuli.

The BV/TV showed a trend of increase as follows: blank control < DDM < DDM-FG1 < DDM-FG2 at 12 weeks.

p < 0.05 was considered significant, and p < 0.001 was considered highly significant.

The LAT and LEMD parameters are inversely correlated (r = − 0.79, p = 0.01) in Group B; this relationship in inverted and close to significance in Group A (Fig. 6 middle).

While mice vaccinated with either a high or low-dose of the vaccine alone or E6020-SE alone showed a trend to a lower parasitemia compared to infected untreated controls, these reductions did not reach statistical significance (Fig. 1 A,B).
