Excerpts

Robustness is increased for all three approaches and the adaptability shows a significant trend towards the initial interpolation method and the splines.

Despite an increasing trend in NAFLD cases relative to the expansion of modern industrialized economies and the resulting global prevalence of obesity, there is no effective pharmacological therapy or cure to control the progression of NAFLD 12 , 13 .

In conclusion, we found a positive association between maternal intake of magnesium and telomere length of cfDNA from amniotic fluid, while results on other micronutrients (i.e., vitamin B1 and iron) were marginally significant.

A significant trend in ETC-wind gust strength was found only for the subtropical East coast, where there was a small uptrend, consistent between both reanalysis datasets.

An overall trend of larger ADC mean differences was seen at 3T compared to 1.5T.

However, correlation coefficients between attractiveness indices and antenna movement variables were not significant (p = 0.12 for both angle and velocity), even if the figures suggest a possible trend, with attractive odorants corresponding more to fast and forward antenna movements.

Observed SLR data from NOAA shows an increasing trend over the past century, about 3.8 ± 0.2 mm/year at Springmaid Pier and 30 ± 3 mm/year at Charleston 73 .

The incidence was spatially and temporally heterogeneous with most subdistricts showing an increasing trend compared to the national trend.

The subsequent adhesion measurements produced a clear trend with i-PDMS showing the lowest barnacle adhesion strength, followed by Intersleek 700, o-PDMS and PDMS control (Fig. 6 ).

To analyze the signs of selection in detail, we detected the SNPs with highly significant effects, which located in exons, UTRs and downstream/upstream of the seven genes mentioned above.

An increasing trend was found in case of Cd and Ni between 2012 and 2016 (Fig. 2 ).

Compared to the first reference year (2009), except ethylbenzene, o-xylene and temperature, in the last years a decreasing trend can be observed in the annual mean concentrations.

A post-hoc analysis of a randomized control trial showed a trend towards improved outcomes with lower target glucose control compared with conventional control in patients with A1C < 5.0%, even though hypoglycemia was more prevalent (adjusted hazard ratio 0.60, 95% CI 0.35–1.01; P = 0.052).

On the other hand, the association between a TIR of absolute normoglycemia > 80% and mortality was almost significantly dependent on A1C levels.

Low serum Hb levels (AUC, 0.75; sensitivity, 75.0%; specificity, 70.6%; P = 0.003) and high βhCG levels (AUC, 0.73; sensitivity, 68.8%; specificity, 67.6%; P = 0.001) were identified to be highly significant predictive factors for massive hemorrhage.

The SAT response to ALL forcings clearly shows a positive trend throughout EA during the study period, with an increase of approximately 0.031 °C/decade between 1850 and 2014 (Period 1 = P1) and 0.255 °C/decade between 1971 and 2014 (P2).

The time and molar ratio had a direct effect on the reaction efficiency and increasing their values was an increasing trend.

In this case, p < 0.05 was considered statistically significant, and p < 0.0001 was considered highly significant.

Moreover, the Lagrange multiplier (LM) test shows that LM (lag) or LM (error) is highly significant, and LM (lag) robustness is also highly significant.

M18 demonstrated a significantly lower value of pasting temperature (PT) (61.0 °C) and an extremely significant lower cool paste viscosity (CPV) value, leading to significantly lower values of setback (SB) and consistency (CS) compared with JQ2 (Table 2 ).

It shows a negative trend for age, and higher PRV for men than women.

There was a decreasing trend in microbial diversity with increased TFV concentration, with a 84.6-fold higher TFV concentration found with an L. crispatus -dominant microbiota (CST I) compared to a more diverse BV-associated microbiota (CST IVB).

The T2 values of MMAH, MMPH, LMAH, and LMPH showed a trend of "increasing first and then decreasing" over time, suggesting that the T2 values may reflect meniscal microstructure in amateur marathon runner.

Only sensor features from the Draw a Shape and U-turn tests showed borderline non-significant results.

To find significant or marginally significant results we need to combine the trust decisions as well as the expected trustworthiness in the two conditions.
