Also, half of mycorrhizal mushroom species (8 of 16) showed an increasing trend in concentration with time; however, saprotrophic mushrooms and wild plants generally demonstrated a decreasing trend (22 of 24).

Conversely, L* values indicating the darkness/lightness values also exhibited a decreasing trend.

The stimulated group showed a modest—but highly significant—increase in TDT 20 relative to the control group, along with higher light-stimuli intensity.

Other biochemical and blood factors such as creatinine, uric acid, urea nitrogen, white blood cells and neutrophils demonstrated an increasing trend in the hypertensives, although those were statistically insignificant.

In VM3 and VM4, an overall trend towards less negative values is observed.

An increasing trend in the stress–strain curve has been reported for chemically crosslinked PHA 45 .

In particular, cataracts and musculoskeletal diseases, which showed marginally significant associations with radiation doses in our study, may be associated with ultraviolet light, underlying diseases, psychological stress, and sensitivity to autoimmune diseases.

We found a modestly significant increase in the dose–response association in relation to cataracts in workers born before 1960.

In this interaction, while SOD concentration had a decreasing trend from tertile 1 towards tertile 3 of HEI-2015 in E − allele carriers, the level of SOD level increased from tertile 1 towards tertile 3 in participants with E + E + .

Moreover, Bland–Altman plots further showed a negative trend of mean biases across the level of sodium excretion, with the only exception being the Mage formula; in other words, compared with the average measured value, seven estimates were systematically biased with overestimation at lower levels and underestimation at higher levels.

A significant trend was noted between magnetic susceptibility and thrombolysis (Fig. 7 ).

Data analysis CCD model For the quadratic model of MG dye adsorption, the coefficient of variation (C.V %) = 2.544% and the F-value = 217.0 (Probability > F less than 0.0001) attained by ANOVA (Table 2 ) imply that the model is highly significant, and the experimental results are reliable and accurate 38 .

Deteriorations in 24 h values were attributable to all parameters examined, whereas similar changes were also present for most parameters at 48 h, except for the significantly not different blood lactate and plasma ALT values.

Looking at 2D qPCR transcriptional data for the CD14 + cultures, genes involved is osteoclast formation—TRAP and OSCAR (osteoclast-associated receptor) 26 had a slight trend towards increased up-regulation with nanovibrational stimulation at day 2 and 3 (Fig. 2 g).

Children who became obese at the age of 15 years kept relatively high BMI z-scores through childhood for both genders, and had an increasing trend over time as opposed to the normal weight group, with an increasing slope during puberty.

We found a highly significant increase of all these anomalies.

In addition, we observe an interesting trend towards higher intensities of branched core fucosylated glycoforms for several peptides.

The effect of smoking status remained marginally significant.

Consistent with the established hetero-multimeric nature of CaMKII, the model did show a highly significant interaction between the two isoforms CAMK2D and CAMK2G .

Both sexes showed a trend towards increasing relative abundance of estrogen-metabolizing Clostridia and decreasing Bacteroidia with pubertal development, but this was statistically significant in girls only (p = 0.03).

Instead, the posterior thalamus was covaried with cortical thickness in the left postcentral sulcus/supramarginal and right cuneus areas with only a marginal significance (Fig. 3 B).

However, in our logistic regression model, NPM1 mutation showed a slight trend towards association with survival.

This is of particular importance for many autoimmune diseases where genetic variants in the human leukocyte antigen (HLA) genes confer a substantial proportion of disease risk and studies have demonstrated highly significant non-additive effects 5 .

ANOVA showed that shoot bud initiation was highly significant among the treatments (Table 3 ).

First, the influence of protozoan metabolites may be significant.
