In contrast, the soil volume and soil organic carbon content displayed a decreasing trend.

Apixaban patients had a nonsignificant trend toward a lower risk of hemorrhagic stroke (HR: 0.77, 95% CI: 0.53–1.13) compared with warfarin patients ( Fig 2B ).

This weakly significant result indicates that, while high degrees of homophilous partnering accounts for some of the HSV-2 risk in Kaokoveld, other factors may be important as well.

Self-reported number of cigarettes used during treatment showed a trend for reduced use of tobacco only in the nabiximols group ( S2B Fig ), whereas the number of cigarettes in the placebo group remained similar before (week 0) and at the end of treatment (week 12).

Discussion The highly significant decline (96%, Figs 3 and 4 ) in lion attacks on bomas with flashlights installed, confirmed by positive experiences from the majority of interviewed owners of such bomas (92%) support the hypothesis that flashlights reduce the probability of nocturnal lion attacks at livestock bomas.

The associations remained statistically-significant in the overall sample (OR = 1.06, 95%CI: 1.01–1.12) and marginally significant in the T2D group (OR = 1.10, 95%CI: 1.00–1.22) after adjusting for mobility limitation in the robustness test.

This model was highly significant (see Results ) and therefore was used to predict the number of Hooded vultures in each (non-surveyed) settlement in Guinea-Bissau.

Comparison of matched samples from BASE-II and BASE demonstrated a favorable trend for HbA1c.

Although not significant, higher volumes showed a trend towards increased efficiency ( Fig 2C ) and, together with higher serum content, reduced transduction toxicity upon microscopic evaluation.

However, after high-temperature treatment, IAA levels showed a decreasing trend in leaves on the sixth day ( Fig 3C ).

Furthermore, the finding was consistent in years one and two, despite the fact that there was an overall trend of increasing prevalence in year one, from the beginning to the end of the trial, and an overall trend of decreasing prevalence in year two.

The rise in the numbers of women smoking that was registered in Italy until 1990 may explain the overall stable figures with only a slight, although significant, decrease noted for this site in the women over 60, as compared to the highly significant decline involving all age classes in the men.

A decreasing trend of LF/HF and SDNN/rMSSD ratios (Figs 4B and 5B ) suggests that hypoxia may promote vagal domination.

Enteritidis) were highly significant and imply across-group differences.

According to our results, L1CAM could be a promising target for combination therapy of human melanoma as a knockdown of L1CAM alone already led to a highly significant decrease in metastasis in the xenograft model of human melanoma described in this study even without changes in glycoprotein core-fucosylation by FUT8[ 12 ].

In the logistic regression, the coefficient for the aggression measure is positive and highly significant.

-1562C>T MMP9 polymorphism revealed borderline significance with POAG The prevalence of CC genotype was greater in controls (69.75%) than in cases (61.16%) while frequency of CT genotype was found to be higher in cases (37.94%) as compared to the control group (28.61%).

In a Taiwanese population, highly significant association was observed between PACG and a non synonymous SNP in exon 6 of the MMP9 gene (rs2664538; now merged into rs17576) [ 35 ].

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.
