Excerpts

Although firm conclusions were limited by the low number of dogs studied and by the variability in absolute measures from dog to dog ( S1 Table ), the low dose cohort of four dogs showed a trend toward improvement in all but TTJ angle ( Table 1 ).

The rest areas, centering on Shenzhen, Guangzhou and Dongguan, show a decreasing trend with the increase of distance.

Semantic reduction and clustering of enriched GO biological processes show that “photosynthesis”, “glucose metabolism” and “generation of precursor metabolites and energy” were the main processes repressed by heat, whereas at 34°C the response to various stress signals such as “response to chemical” or “secondary metabolism” and “protein folding / refolding” were highly significant ( Fig 2 ).

The estimated global burden of SCP accounted for 3.5 million DALYs (95% uncertainty intervals [UI]: 1.4 to 7.2) with an increasing trend from 1995 to 2015 [ 8 ].

However, preliminary analyses showed highly significant correlation between mean prey size and median prey size.

However, there was no significant results (or even close to significance) when analyzing the diversity index in relation to the model (body mass, gizzard mass, beak volume, head volume and sex as explanatory variables).

However, in practice, while interaction coefficients may be significant, individual variables do not pass the significance test [ 61 , 62 ].

Depression scores were lower when social grants were received but the association was only weakly significant (at the 10% level) and only for social grants received in Wave 2 i.e. there is no suggestion that any protective effects of social grants endure beyond a month.

Although the average estimation accuracy shows an increasing trend with the increase in input dimension, neural networks with a small input dimension may produce a better result.

Results Substrate property With the increase of SMR proportion in growing media, both ammonium N and nitrate N concentrations showed a trend of decline ( Table 1 ).

The bioluminescence signals from aged rat stomach tissues exhibited a decreasing trend compared to those from young rats ( Fig 4A and 4B ).

p values of less than 0.05 were considered significant (*); values of less than 0.01 were considered highly significant (**).

This high VRE finding in the present study might indicate an increasing trend in VRE which is supported by studies reporting steady increase in VRE through time [ 26 , 49 ].

Note that these diseases can have additional transmission pathways, which can be more or less significant depending on the circumstances.

The results are largely invariant to the number of pre-vaccine years, with a slight trend towards decreasing impact as more years are added.

For carbonated hardness, whereas both Anophelinae L1 and L2, L3 and L4 groups show a highly significant negative association (except Anophelinae L1 at 15 KH in univariate analysis, not kept in the multivariate regression), the Ny . darlingi group did not show statistical significance for any range, except a decrease in larval numbers observed at a range of 3 KH in the multivariate analysis [0.24 (IC95%:.09-.63)].

The prevalence of rotavirus and norovirus showed declining trends, while the prevalence of adenovirus showed an increasing trend from 2015 to 2018.

Discussion The results of movement performance in Thai children aged 7–10 years old, in the areas of (1) Manual Dexterity, (2) Aiming and Catching, and (3) Balance, showed a trend of improvement with age increment.

Analyses revealed that the only marginally significant association was that, for dogs with no previous formal training for medical alert, the amount of time the dog had spent with the target person before it began alerting was significantly related to whether or not the dog alerted to multiple conditions.

There were no significant differences in the expression of MMP-2 and TIMP-1 among the experimental groups, but MMP-2 expression showed an increasing trend in the partial cervical tissue excision, administration of LPS, and partial cervical tissue excision plus administration of LPS groups compared to the sham group.

Finally, on October 15, we started to see an increasing trend again, and the forecast assuming 5% increase in transmission rate worked well.

We did find a marginally significant difference in overall subjective well-being in the control group at baseline between those who completed the course and those who dropped the course X 2 (146, N = 7721) = 175.984, p = 0.046.

Only in the case of harvesting tools does there seem to be a slight trend towards them being more abundant among males ( Table 15 ).

SHSML is skewed to the right, suggesting that there exists a decreasing trend in stock market liquidity in the future. 5.

Our results identified an encouraging trend underscoring the importance of facilitators that operate on a community organisation level .
