Excerpts

Partial dependence plots suggested a positive trend between backscatter response and ALR gs , a decrease of ALR gs shallower than ~60 m depth, and a lower ALR gs on east-facing slopes ( Fig 5 ).

After Holm-Bonferroni correction, the association between specific phthalate mixtures and performance on the NNNS summary scales of Attention, Handling, and Non-Optimal Reflexes remained significant while the association with Excitability approached significance.

On the other hand, differences between the treatment conditions were not or only marginally significant at 6-months and 12 months follow-up.

There was also a marginally significant difference in the current MGFA classification (proportion of bulbar predominant type).

The opportunity to intervene at the time of DOX chemotherapy to save a patient from acute or delayed cardiac dysfunction is extremely significant and could help in improved quality of life.

This study demonstrates that age has a highly significant independent effect on both LDI FLARE and CCM measures, urging the need to establish age-stratified thresholds when these techniques are deployed for the diagnosis of DPN [ 40 ].

Highly significant differences were found in our sample, with a 1.36 difference on average (on a ten-point scale) between the organization with the highest ratings and the organization with the lowest ratings.

In addition, there was a clear trend toward an increased incidence of deep or infratentorial CMBs with increasing number of MetS components; compared to patients without any MetS components, those having three or more components were almost 14.1 times more likely to develop new deep or infratentorial CMBs.

The lack of NKLAM protein was associated with less lung inflammation and the survival study showed a trend toward decreased mortality.

Firstly, a highly significant association of goal difference at full time with the goal difference at half time, with the expected positive sign, is found.

Proteins that showed a trend but did not meet statistical significance (P < 0.05) underwent further bioinformatics analysis if they were an important component of a specific pathway or classification.

Concerning the relationship between locomotion and the three potential mediators, locomotion was significantly and positively associated with future and present temporal focus and negatively (although only marginally significant) with past temporal focus.

Principal outcomes Attendance and re-attendance measures Rate of ED attendance was on an increasing trend for Hospitals C through E pre-FHR.

Given the known association between P5B ATPase function and Parkinsons disease, it may be significant that the human ortholog of vab-3 is Pax6, which has been shown to be important for dopaminergic neuron survival [ 53 ].

It has been noted that an increasing trend in optimal treatment outcomes is the main indicator of quality of TB control programs.

Langkammer and collaborators [ 33 ] who did look at the relation between R2* and cortical myelin as measured by magnetization transfer ratio in healthy brains, did find a strong trend towards a significant association, thus resembling our findings.

These differences were highly significant and reflect a ≥ 99.9% reduction in parasite burden in the K11777 treated group.

Yet, we did not observe a definite trend relating an increase in cell number with higher GBM migration, suggesting that although physical changes of the matrix might be present, the effect of stromal cells on migration is mainly due to cell-cell specific interactions, especially during short period of times.

Clearly, the estimates of the (cardioprotective) effects of alcohol consumption on mortality have a notable impact on the estimates of alcohol-related mortality at older ages (when mortality itself is higher), especially in populations with higher mortality from causes of death for which cardioprotective effects may be significant, and with large shares of moderate drinkers.

Although men aged 50−69 years also showed a decreasing trend, women in the same age groups exhibited a greater decrease.

The proportion of individuals taking medications showed an increasing trend, suggesting that these problems have been receiving increased attention.

These results suggest that an extremely significant cost increase, i.e., a tax, would probably be required to encourage farmers to cease the use of AMT and move to the alternative treatment.

In order to maintain a high and stable photosynthetic rate, the C i showed an increasing trend during the grain-filling period in the flag leaves and spikes.

We maintained four such marginally non-significant path coefficients (shown in Fig 2 ).

The plot shows an increasing trend in lending associated with growing per capita GDP for country–pairs that share a large (above the median) and no significant change for small (below the median) immigrant population.
