Excerpts

In the multivariate regression analysis adjusted for sex and age as well as adjusted for age, sex and additional adjustment for comorbidities this association demonstrated still a trend towards significance.

We report a highly significant reduction in biting pressure that was maintained over time, and establish the thresholds needed for success.

Although the effect was only marginally significant in source space, the observed effect size was medium, suggesting a genuine effect.

10 , a clear trend between the PEC performance and the thickness of Y-BFO films exists.

To test whether this species difference was apparent in function of the GL nerve that innervates CV and TB, we made electrophysiological recordings in rat and mouse.

There was a highly significant negative correlation between the two most abundant taxa in both study areas: Colletotrichum sp. 1 and Clonostachys sp. 1 in ANP; Colletotrichum sp. 1 and Trichoderma sp. 1 in CNF.

Moreover, Sox11S133MIMIC-expressing neurons showed a strong trend towards lower numbers of dendritic termini (Fig. 4g ).

The statistical test was considered statistically highly significant when the p-value was less than 0.001 and statistically significant when the p-value was less than 0.05.

As in our previous report, we found a 1.1-fold increased percentage of Firmicutes with a favorable trend (FDR adjusted Q = 0.0594) and a significant decrease in Bacteroidetes (0.8-fold decrease, FDR adjusted Q < 0.05) in TSOD mice compared with TSNO mice (Fig. 4a ) 31 .

The overall DE of the polydisperse particle for different flow rates shows an increasing trend, except at the 9 lpm flow rate.

Reversely, a decreasing trend was observed for DCD.

This is further supported by our findings that the vmPFC responses to food (versus neutral) words were a positive and unique predictor (relative to dmPFC responses for incongruent versus congruent words) of spontaneous snack intake after scanning in a marginally significant regression model.

Some earlier work from this laboratory 9 – 11 suggested, however, that the proportion of triple ionization by double Auger decay may be significant in some cases, and our previous investigation 3 confirmed that it can reach 10% even in relatively simple carbon, nitrogen, and oxygen compounds.

According to our results, DOX treatment induced a highly significant increase in serum ALT and AST levels in comparison with the control (Fig. 5a,b ).

The use of insecticides at home and/or at work showed a trend towards a positive association with PD.

The highly significant differences between the transgenic and control plants were found under the 200 mmol L −1 NaCl stress for all these anti-oxidative enzymes, with the transgenic lines T2 and T3 having highest enzymatic activities among the genotypes.

As for placental arteries, IUGR arteries generally had smaller vascular size but the difference was only significant at the 4 th generation and weakly significant at the 3 rd generation.

After adjusting for other significant factors, an elevated MCV level showed a marginally significant association with IS-related death (aHR = 1.66; 95% CI: 0.96–2.88), and the trend was of borderline statistical significance (p-value = 0.067).

In our previous experiments 20 , we found a highly significant reduction of age-adjusted TL in peripheral blood lymphocytes of high-level PCB exposed individuals (∑ indicator PCBs up to 236 μg/L plasma 21 ) where a dependency of telomere shortening on the exposure level of LC PCBs could be shown.

One can also see a decreasing trend with increase in temperature.

1b ), with highly significant correlation coefficients ( r 2 ) that are on average > 0.5 for most tissue comparisons.

There is a clear trend of increasingly steeper slopes for children with higher reading scores, across both stimulus continua and both experimental paradigms.

We could also demonstrate a statistically highly significant correlation between PITX2 DNA methylation (therascreen PITX2 RGQ PCR assay equivalent PMR data with PMR equiv = 12) and clinical outcome (DFS) for patients treated with anthracycline-based chemotherapy.

Inter-annual yield variability When expressed relative to decadal mean yields, the variability of crop yields (as CV, Coefficient of Variation, defined as standard deviation over mean) shows a decreasing trend over time for a large proportion of crop-department combinations (Fig. 4 ; SI Fig. 7a ).

The presence of cPTIO in the cultivating water in both plasma-discharged and tap water showed a decreasing trend in the weight and length of the sprout.
