This analysis showed a trend towards decreased invasiveness of the DLC1-FL cells ( S3 Fig ).

The only climate factor related to BCS was a positive relationship with humidity, although the effect of rainfall approached significance.

Engaging in receptive anal sex was a statistically significant risk factor for HIV in Models 1 and 2 and marginally significant in Model 3.

Within all groups, visual acuity gain relative to baseline is highly significant.

In Chinese-Americans we observed significance in the association of rs10846744 with Lp-PLA 2 activity, while in Caucasians we observed borderline significance with Lp-PLA 2 mass.

For the 2017 Constitutional Referendum we find systematic and highly significant statistical support for the presence of both ballot stuffing and voter rigging.

Recently an increasing trend in skin cancer rates has been observed in various populations including those exposed to different radiation types.

Similarly to the present study, none of main epidemiological studies demonstrated a significant association of SM with radiation dose, except for US radiologist cohort study analyzing effects of exposure following fluoroscopy interventional procedures and revealing a borderline significant increased risk of SM incidence (HR = 1.16, 95% CI: 1.02, 1.32) [ 13 ].

Global radiation, which has a major impact on photosynthesis of primary producers, has shown an increasing trend since 1990s, especially during spring in the Lake Taihu basin [ 16 ].

Fig 5A shows highly significant differences in CCV and DCV size in both developmental states.

However, previous research suggests that there might be significant disparities between judgment and actual behavior in moral dilemmas [ 69 – 70 ].

Using weighted gene co-expression network analysis to explore the RNA-seq data, tumors from participants with a history of tobacco use showed a significant trend towards increased mammalian target of Rapamycin (mTOR) signaling and decreased mitochondrial respiration.

From the center point of the initially defined cluster, the upper and the lower boundaries were assigned to the last nominally significant variant situated at a maximum of 1 Mb in both directions.

This implies that this study has a smaller weight in the MA, however, this aspect is compensated to a certain degree by the high effect sizes of the associated variants particularly when considering the traits BFT and CRCL, where highly significant associations were detected.

Phosphorylation level of AMPK showed a trend to be increased by AdipoRon.

The plot shows a weak trend in which linguistic distance increases as chronological distance increases; however, the association is highly heteroscedastic, with higher variance in linguistic distance for lower values of chronological distance.

Spectrum-STI ( http://avenirhealth.org/software-spectrum.php ) is a statistical trend estimation model developed by Avenir Health, with support from the World Health Organization (WHO), for use by national health officials to synthesize STI surveillance data and generate national trend estimates.

Deletion of the HD (AntpΔHD) decreased dramatically the interaction with TFIIEβ; only 26% of the AntpΔHD cells showed a highly significant difference in interaction compared to 78% of the cells with wild-type Antp and 75% with AntpHD ( Fig 1A and 1B ; S1 Fig ).

However, both Mantel test with geographic distances ( r M = 0.473, p = 0.002) and Procrustes test with NMDS ordination with geographic locations ( t = 0.554, p < 0.001) were highly significant, indicating the soil characteristics were spatially autocorrelated.

It was reported to be ineffective for PD fatigue [ 32 , 34 ] with a possible trend towards a larger effect in people with depression, than those not depressed [ 35 ].

Exposure to 3-min PTM and 5-min PTM alone resulted in only a minor decrease of cell viability, which was slightly significant against control (*) for WB-F344 cells but not for WB-ras cells.

A clear example is observed in Sagittaria pygmaea , where there are no trade-offs between sexual and asexual reproduction at high concentrations of nutrients, but when the amount of nutrients is low or moderate they become clearly significant [ 62 ].

In conclusion, we found a marginally significant positive association between sedentary physical activity and IBS, particularly among women and individuals of normal weight.

Moreover, a weak trend was observed toward higher prevalence of IBS with fewer hours spent for physical activity (odds ratio: 0.99) [ 16 ].

Differences among methods were highly significant, and reliability and agreement values were mostly poor to moderate, with few exceptions.
