Excerpts

Moreover, the association is marginally significant also when we control for risk attitudes.

Treatment means comparisons were made by Fisher’s protected least significant difference; P values were considered statistically significant at P ≤ 0.05, and those with P > 0.05 < 0.10 marginally significant, but the latter mentioned only when considered relevant.

• The text mentions the DCS and T cells are strongly increased at 50 microgram of poly IC, but there seems to be a nonsignificant trend only.

The authors observed a statistical trend towards worse survival for patients with higher SUV max of the primary tumor [ 36 ].

Univariate regression of patient-reported satisfaction with patients’ age as the independent variable revealed slightly significant association for patients aged 25–44 years, however this association was not significant after controlling for the effect of other variables on patient-reported satisfaction.

Effects of EPS-CM on lipolysis of 3T3-L1 adipocytes Since triglyceride accumulation measured by Oil Red O staining was unchanged but showed a decreasing trend on day 10 when continuously treated with EPS-CM ( Fig 2B ), we examined whether EPS-CM induced lipolysis in mature adipocytes on day 10.

The amount of lipids was significantly increased by EPS-CM on day 4, and continued to show an increasing trend on day 6, but tended to decrease by day 10 ( Fig 2B ).

QTL detected in at least two of the four environments were considered to be consistent [ 72 ], because QTL × environment interaction effects were highly significant and no QTL was consistently identified in all the four environments except a QTL for CGM at 3 MAP stage.

The controls also experienced a significant worsening in GFI, which was based on a decrease in gait speed, while the dance group showed a trend towards improvement [ 65 ].

Two used the Krupp Fatigue Severity Scale, with one reporting borderline significant improvements in the tango group compared to controls who practiced self-directed exercise and significant improvement when protocol violations were excluded [ 16 ].

This changed for the ten-year analysis where the benefit under SRL almost reached statistical significance (SRL 81.8% vs.

We see that the total cost has a negative trend initially, i.e. it decreases with increasing λ.

A local study reported that there was an increasing trend in the percentage of documented investigations conducted for evaluation of hypertension during a patient’s first clinic visit from 1998 to 2012 [ 17 ].

The number of signals detected showed an increasing trend from September to December 2018, after which it decreased, remaining stable through March 2019.

No statistical differences were found in gender and ethnicity among case and control group while nationality was at borderline significance difference.

Quotas for specific Bear Management Units were increased when complaints showed an increasing trend in an effort to target areas where local populations were perceived to be too high.

For the exclusion criteria/confounding factors, the following criteria/ratings were considered for the analysis: No = many conditions were not excluded and the risk of bias in the study results is high; Probably no = some conditions were not excluded and the risk of bias in the study results may be significant; Probably yes = the majority of confounding conditions were excluded and the risk of bias in the study results may be low; Yes = authors carefully excluded the majority of confounding conditions that may bias the interpretation of the study results.

Highly significant differences in FLL were detected among different haplotypes at the remaining four candidate genes ( LOC_Os05g48450 , LOC_Os05g48590 , LOC_Os05g48760 , and LOC_Os05g48870 ) ( Table 2 and Fig 6B ).

Since FI is based solely on the boundary of significance, the linear association of FI with event counts will remain regardless of statistical methodology or outcome measure.

As seen in Fig 5B , the main reason for the decrease in the SE was the driving effect in the eastern and central regions, which indicated that the planting scale in the eastern and central regions had an evident trend and reduced the amount of fertilizer.

Low HDL-cholesterol levels showed a trend for a correlation with e-cig use status; however, the trend was not statistically significant.

studied the data from the population-based Brain Attack Surveillance in Corpus Christi (BASIC) Project and found a borderline significant association between one-day PM 2.5 and O 3 exposure and ischemic stroke/TIA risk even in a community with relatively low pollutant levels with median PM 2.5 of 7.0 μg/m 3 [ 21 ].

The comparison resulting from the application of the IPET criteria at admission and at hospital stay revealed an increasing trend of patient with PIMs, from 11% on admission to 17% on admission. 44% of the detected PIMs during hospital stay were related to the prescription of NSAIDs in patients with high blood pressure ( Table 6 ).

In women, long sleep duration was associated with elevated hs-CRP level in the fully adjusted model, but was marginally significant (OR = 1.26, 95% CI 0.98–1.62).

Ontological analyses of Molecular Function reveal highly significant enrichments of RNA-associated proteins for each tested alphavirus, confirming the capacity of the CLAMP strategy to lead the discovery of Protein:vRNA interactions.
