Although not independently and significantly correlated with the odds of an error, there is a notable trend towards lower odds of a processing error with increasing quartile of test order number.

Overall, for all concentrations there is an increasing trend of ‘dead’ bacteria as NPC concentration increased for AMNP1 and 2. qPCR To distinguish live and dead populations using qPCR, viability qPCR assay was performed with the addition of propidium monoazide (PMA).

Additionally, the water status values presented an increasing trend throughout the summer as a consequence of season progress and water treatments’ effectiveness.

Under scenario RCP8.5 ( Table 3 and Fig 5 ), the highly suitable areas showed a decreasing trend from the present to the 2080s, and the reductions would be 0.04×10 4 km 2 , 1.18×10 4 km 2 , 9.66×10 4 km 2 and 3.45×10 4 km 2 , respectively.

Balance performance in females was worse than that in males among older people [ 34 , 35 ], suggesting that the effects of dental status on incident falls may be significant in females, but not in males.

List of analytes that have borderline significance and are considered to be worth further study.

S4 Fig shows that the foreign language effect is practically significant–up to 1 entire point on the 7-point Likert scale–as well as statistically significant (i.e., the 95% confidence interval around the point estimate of one group does not include the point estimate of the other group).

A trend towards significance in survival was seen in oral cavity and oropharynx tumors.

Kaplan-Meier curves showed a trend towards better survival in patients with high PITX1 mRNA levels and hypomethylated PITX1 exon 3 gene locus, but this result failed to be statistically significant (p = 0.21 and p = 0.12, respectively).

Margalef’s index of species richness (D ma ) and Shannon-Weaver's index of species diversity (H’) exhibited very similar temporal patterns (correlation between the two trends was 0.75): both exhibited an increasing trend with similar monthly oscillations ( Fig 2C ).

Only uncertainty aversion has a marginally significant linear relationship with exam grades.

Surprisingly, we detected a marginal significance between the lack of CCND1 (cyclin D1) expression and larger tumors.

Therefore, many large GISTs with a small mitotic count were included in the trial, which explains the marginally significant association between absence of CCND1 expression and a small tumor diameter.

Interestingly, while the effect of both miRNA deletions on NFκB p65 phosphorylation was highly significant, the same trend was observed for IL1b, IL8 and CCL4 mRNA induction, however did not reach significance levels.

However, a highly significant correlation between amygdala DCX and object exploration would support its contribution to the observed effects in hypoxic-light anaesthesia conditions.

Highly significant relationships between the δ 2 H and δ 18 O series and mean summer temperature were also found in some cases.

Bamboo culm densities did not significantly differ among these sites but showed an increasing trend with decreasing latitude, that is, the culm density increased from north to south.

Total 10 stations (among them, 9 stations with significance at 95% confidence) exhibited a positive trend in COD Mn concentration, mainly occurring on major tributaries (e.g., station 10 on Xiang River, station 14 on Gan River) and the lower reach of the trunk stream ( Fig 4B ).

This response was highly significant from 5 to 40 minutes after starting the graded glucose infusion when compared to that with albumin alone.

No significant GxE interactions emerged for depressive symptoms or state-anxiety, although rs9296158, rs1360780 and the haplotype reached a trend towards significance for state-anxiety.

However, expecting to gain showed a trend to increase the percentage of gazing at gain targets compared with loss targets more than expecting to lose increased the percentage of gazing at loss targets compared with gain targets half a second after the first hit, t (30) = 1.507, p = .071, d = .173.

Despite the relatively low sample numbers, a positive trend was observed between the ascidian size class and the number of associations, with the largest ascidian size class (4–5 cm in diameter) characterized by the highest percentage of individuals that hosted shrimps ( n = 9, 39%) ( Fig 4 ).

In all three, 17-AAG by itself and in combination with PLX4032 pretreated BRAF WT melanoma cell lines showed highly significant decreases in S phase and increase in G0/G1 arrest.

Thus, there potentially may be significant biases that were not controlled.

Interestingly, when comparing breast cancer tissues and blood from breast cancer, we found highly significant difference between the two groups for rs34404564 at genotypic levels, i.e., the heterozygosity AG and homozygosity GG frequency differences.
