We found a highly significant negative effect of urban areas on mongoose expansion across the two first studied temporal ranges ( Table 2 ).

The mean effect was about half the size at 7.2 ± 1.4° (HCGV) and 12.8 ± 1.8° (HVGV) but remained highly significant with combined visual and inertial headings ( Fig 3E & 3K ).

While the ambiguity × aspect interaction did show a trend towards significance at lateral sites in the N400 time window, reflecting a numerically larger disambiguation effect for imperfective vs. perfective sentences, there was no hint of an ambiguity × aspect interaction at midline sites in the N400 window or in any analysis for the LPS window.

The J-shaped associations between BMI and the risks of all-cause and CVD mortality were still present among patients with elevated hsCRP concentration (≥3mg/L), while the association of BMI and mortality changed to a positive trend among patients with normal hsCRP concentration (<3mg/L).

However, they could show a positive trend towards spiral CT regarding artifacts and subjective “overall image quality”.

IR 5 method had a statistically highly significant better subjective image quality in all examined scoring category than the sequential CT (Wilcoxon sign-rank analysis—for details see Table 5 ).

Six-point UCDAI scores showed a trend toward improvement at 1 week (mean change 1.6) and 4 weeks (mean change 0.8) but the change was not statistically significant.

Although this established a highly significant connection of PrP to proteins whose levels changed in EMT, the direction of protein levels changes in cells which underwent EMT (dataset I) was not correlated to the protein level changes caused by stable PrP-deficiency in TGFB1 treated cells (dataset II) (Spearman correlation; ƿ = 0.419).

The number of Htt genotype-sensitive metabolites nominally significant at an alpha level of 0.05 varied across tissues (Chi sq.

Moreover, since only single stool specimen was collected from each child there might be significant underestimation of prevalence of STH because of the temporal variation in egg excretion over hours and days.

These risk estimates persisted in multivariate analysis (model 6 in Table 2 ) with a significant increase for those shorter than 170 cm and a borderline significance for those in the 171–175cm group.

Borderline significant determinants increasing the probability for MRSA in calves were: decreased weight when calves enter the baby boxes, longer periods before releasing calves from baby boxes, and presence of pets in the farm ( Table 4 ).

Only duration of the production cycle showed a trend towards increased values in intervened farms compared to Control farms.

Consequently, though not statistically significant (p = 0.079), the plasma levels of adiponectin exhibited a possible trend toward significance in the EP4 agonist–treated group ( Fig 5B ), suggesting that polarization of ATMs toward the anti-inflammatory M2 phenotype balanced adipokine secretion and improved insulin sensitivity in obese mice.

The interaction between marker size and marker type was highly significant: both long and short nuclear markers were obtained with smaller chance than mitochondrial markers ( Fig 1A ).

Tests for differences in SMP within the control group as a result of scanning on two different, albeit identical MRI scanners, and between medicated and unmedicated MDD participants gave p-values close to significance ( S1 Text ).

The node degree indicates whether an excess of edges in the semi-metric connectome is preferentially localised to a few nodes or distributed more widely, in which case between-group differences in degree are less likely to be significant.

Quantification analysis showed a highly significant, ~20 fold increase in the fluorescent signal of EGFP-LC3 ( S4 Fig ), a feature indicative of autophagy activation [ 34 , 35 ].

Moreover, a significant trend of more counties shifting to lower rather than to higher crop diversity was detected.

The effect of deliveries disappeared when evaluating the national programme, although the effect remained borderline significant when restricting to those who had been exposed to the intervention for at least a year [ 14 ].

Moreover, when we excluded the subjects who performed poorest in Experiment 1, a marginally significant effect of posture was also found, again demonstrating a reduced temporal sensitivity in the crossed posture condition.

A strong and highly significant correlation was observed between the cortisol AUC calculated for the overall daytime period and the cortisol concentrations, at both 1000h and 1400h time-points.

The GG genotype of ADORA1 rs2228079 was found significantly more frequently in patients with OCD/OCB, depression and, at borderline significance, with non-OCD anxiety disorder.

In that analysis, we observed marginally significant positive associations between MCPP as well as mono (carboxynonyl) phthalate (MCNP; not measured in the present study) and CRP, which is contrary to results from the present study suggesting inverse associations between MCPP and CRP.

The current study nevertheless showed a trend for a slightly raised vulnerability among women, which a population study in a neighboring country (Sweden) also indicated [ 23 ].
