However, these changes did not reach statistical significance ( p = 0.002).

The Cochran–Mantel–Haenszel trend chi-square test revealed a significant trend of decreasing MCI prevalence with increasing CDAI ( p = 0.0024). 3.2.

A plant-based diet was the most highly significant factor ( p = 0.0026) in ameliorating the risk of obesity in participants with a high genetic risk for obesity.

Moreover, an increasing trend toward liver steatosis severity was observed in patients with BMI ≥ 25 kg/m 2 (Cochran Armitage trend test = 3; p = 0.0027).

Although the antihypertensive treatment with the use of 2800 IU daily was not effective, a significant trend of an inverse association between the achieved 25(OH)D concentration and systolic pressure was noted ( p = 0.003).

APG showed a decreasing trend until 60 min after ingestion, with a significant difference at 30 and 60 min ( p = 0.003 and p = 0.012, respectively).

In age-stratified analyses higher cheese intake was associated with lower cortical BMD at the radius and tibia in men and women over the age of 60 years [β (SE) per 1 serv/week: −7.40 (2.59), p = 0.01 and per 1 serv/week: per 1 serv/week: −7.82 (2.85), p = 0.01, respectively; Table S3 ), but these associations did not reach statistical significance ( p < 0.003).

However, there was a marginally significant trend towards an inverse association between the achieved 25(OH)D level with 24-hour systolic BP (−0.196 per ng/mL 25(OH)D, 95% CI (−0.325 to −0.067); p = 0.003).

Thus, when compared the overall survival curves against control-fed nematodes, the survival was highly significant ( p = 0.003), and this increase in survival was observed during the initial, medium and final lifespan ( Table 3 ).

There were highly significant group differences in beta diversity, both when comparing by study visits (R 2 = 5.37%; p = 0.003) or age windows (R 2 = 4.93%; p < 0.0001); Figure 5 . 3.7.2.

Factors Associated with DAO Levels When considering the median DAO, a significant trend of increasing DAO was seen with increasing BMI ( p = 0.004) and increasing age ( p <0.001), where the group >61 years were found to have a higher DAO than other age groups ( Figure 2 ).

Further, two-way ANOVA analysis of the HFD-fed groups indicated a significant or nearly significant effect of BC lowering fasting blood glucose ( p = 0.004), insulin ( p = 0.047) and HOMA-IR ( p = 0.053), and no significant effect of MET on these parameters ( p = 0.106, p = 0.610 and p = 0.351, respectively).

A highly significant difference was observed between the higher cost of GF pasta and standard pasta ( p = 0.004).

Univariate logistic regression in men identified three factors with statistical significance or marginal significance: suboptimal plasma vitamin C (≤8.8 mg/mL) ( p = 0.004), suboptimal serum vitamin B12 (≤300 pg/mL) ( p = 0.062), and low BMI (underweight/normal weight) ( p = 0.011).

The analytical approach for this study was informed by our prior findings: although sex is traditionally included in REE PEs ( Appendix A ), our previous regression analysis on this cohort demonstrated that sex was not a statistically significant predictor of measured REE ( p = 0.06), whereas body weight and height remained highly significant ( p < 0.005) [ 10 ].

Self-perceived oral health status showed a clear trend: participants who rated their oral health as “Good” (Estimate: −5.28, p = 0.005) or “Very good” (Estimate: −6.12, p = 0.003) had significantly lower dental erosion scores compared to those with poorer self-perception, with “Satisfactory” ratings approaching significance (Estimate: −3.85, p = 0.052).

The Associations of Serum Mn Levels with Prediabetes and Diabetes After adjusting for age, sex, BMI, lifestyle factors, and health status, participants with serum Mn levels in the higher quartiles exhibited a significant trend towards having lower ORs for the presence of prediabetes ( p = 0.005, Table 3 ).

No significant correlation was found with thiol groups, while GSH levels showed a negative trend ( Figure 2 A), being significant at day 14 of lactation ( ρ = −0.49; p -value = 0.005).

For the anthocyanins, we found a highly significant correlation between α-glucosidase inhibition and DPPH radical scavenging activity ( p < 0.005, R 2 = 0.997).

A highly significant difference in infection rate ( p = 0.005) was observed as only 5/40 patients (12.5%) in the Synbiotic 2000-treated group suffered infections (4 wounds and one urinary tract infection) vs. 16/40 (40%) in the fiber-only group (6 wound infections, 5 peritonitis, 4 chest infections, 2 sepsis, and one of each of urinary tract infection, cholangitis and empyema)— Table 5 .

There was a highly significant ( p < 0.005) LPS-induced secretion of IFNγ, IL1β, and TNFα in culture supernatants from AM isolated from pigs fed mushrooms ( Table S2 ), but other cytokines were below the limit of detection of the assay (data not shown).

When patients were stratified by ADT administration, cholesterol values showed an increasing trend in the group receiving ADT ( p = 0.005) which was no longer significant at 1 year.

88.7 ± 15 kg, p = 0.020, respectively) and highly significant reductions in blood triglyceride levels (146.4 ± 6 vs. 131.4 ± 5 mg/dL, p = 0.006).

The increase after the DER-diet showed a trend towards higher levels compared to the relative change in the restricted diet ( p = 0.006) and the control group ( p = 0.003) ( Table 2 ).

Sex and age group were significant ( p < 0.001), and core grain food serves had small but significant interaction with age group ( p < 0.001) and a marginally significant interaction with sex ( p = 0.006).
