Excerpts

A trend towards significance was interpreted as a p value between 0.05 and 0.1.

No significant difference regarding the reverberation artifact was found for models H and I and near significance was obtained for model F and L.

The correlation between specific means of wood density and growth rates derived from tree ring studies is highly significant (r = 0.81, Fig 9 ).

While for the different studied cases was not possible to found an overall trend, we found monotonic behaviors as a function of p and r and data revealed that increasing r systematically decreased the error.

These values indicate highly significant positive correlations, which may indicate a common origin.

In Akt1 +/+ mice, neurological score showed a trend of improvement about 40% from 8 in NT group to an average of 11.2 in TH group ( Fig 1C ).

At most, we found a near-significant interaction of instruction and rotation size for proprioceptive recalibration, likely due to the smaller proprioceptive shift for the instructed 60 group compared to non-instructed 60° group.

In all three cases we find the respective aspect of social class to be a highly significant and positive predictor for the probability to engage in voluntary work.

Starting from the onset of the mixing period in winter, the mean mesozooplankton concentration exhibits an increasing trend that lasts till early summer ( Fig 5 ).

There was a decreasing trend in HDL-C in the YH1 group but no significant difference between groups.

The mean adjusted p-values demonstrate that the correlations are highly significant.

For two of the most highly significant SNPs first associated with refractive error ( GJD2 and RASGRF1 ), no association with MMD was found in an ethnically-homogenous Chinese population [ 31 ].

F ST and Φ ST pairwise estimates showed highly significant values between most populations after Bonferroni correction ( Table 4 ).

Furthermore, analysis of genes downstream of ROS production, leading to control of the NLRP3 inflammasome complex and caspase 1 (in other hosts), also showed a trend of down-regulation (6 genes up-regulated and 14 genes down-regulated) with MEFV also identified as significant ( Table 1 ) ( Fig 4A and 4B ).

Overall, as BMI increased, the PFI of girls aged 7–15 years showed a trend of first increasing and then decreasing, but the fluctuation was smaller than that observed for boys.

Partially replicating the significant age-related difference reported in this previous study, there was a strong trend for younger mothers ( M = 3.19, SD = 2.44) to have lower scores for appropriate mind-related comments than their older counterparts ( M = 4.18, SD = 2.57), t (149) = 1.91, p = .058, d = .40.

The revealed highly significant association of PTH rs7125774 with effectiveness of BPs therapy should be considered with caution and has to be elucidated in further studies.

Testing of the main treatments found both stakeholder (p = 0.006) and Māori association (p = 0.001) had highly significant differences in overall response patterns amongst their respective groups ( Table 1 ).

arabiensis could be held at 2°C for up to 8 hours or between 4 and 10°C for up to 24 hours without significantly impacting subsequent survival 14 days after immobilisation, except a marginally significant reduction at 6°C which might be due to experimental uncertainties.

The correlation coefficients for exercise #2, #3, #5, #8, and #11 were 0.594, 0.948, 0.686, 0.441, and 0.811, respectively, and all were highly significant ( p s < 0.001).

This may be due to the physiological and reproductive growth of pear jujube requiring a large amount of water supply, and the water consumption of pear jujube is increasing, so that the crop coefficient shows an increasing trend.

Assessment of association between lesion grade, viral load, E2: E6 ratio and pSTAT3 was performed using Spearman’s rank correlation coefficient which revealed a positive correlation between lesion grade, viral load and pSTAT3 with highly significant p -values ( Table 6 ).

When several genes from the same family were differentially expressed we took one member from list from highly significant ones and one member for which the adjusted value was close to 0.05.

Seven proteins showing a clear trend related to the disease were further validated by western blotting.

It appears that the place of occurrence itself might be significant here since the percentage of the fatal pedestrian victims was the highest in the rural parts of the Warsaw metropolitan area (45.57%).
