Furthermore, in Pt/Co/Pt samples the DMI is an order of magnitude smaller, hence a tilting of at most 1 or 2 degrees might be induced, which is hardly significant and therefore not taken into account in the analysis.

4 ) though miR-21 showed a trend of increasing with the emergency of atherosclerosis.

But only a non-physiological metabolic provocation (intravenous GTT) led to the group-specific detection of slightly significant differences in some phospholipids levels 16 .

A P-value < 0.05 (*) was deemed significant, P < 0.01(**) very significant and a P < 0.001 (***) highly significant, as stated in the figure legends.

There was a decreasing trend in the main effect of heat on childhood diarrhea in Brisbane across the study period.

The other areas exhibit a decreasing trend in AOD anomaly.

However, this point needs further investigation because the correlations were only marginally significant.

As shown in Figure 2a and 2c , most of CO concentrations were below 150 parts per billion by volume (ppbv) and displayed an increasing trend from July to September.

This was different from the land based observation around the Arctic Ocean, where a decreasing trend from July to September was reported 15 .

The resulting Bayes factor, which can be obtained by dividing the winning model's probability (almost 1) by the next probable model's probability (almost 0), is considered decisive evidence for the winning model (corresponding to a highly significant difference) 43 .

These peaks could be interpreted as part of a decreasing trend from a drier and probably colder period with higher 10 Be concentrations toward the much warmer and possibly wetter Eemian period with lower 10 Be concentrations.

Although the Phylop score of KCNB2 :Glu522Lys showed borderline significance, the conservation percentage was still around 80%.

In the experiments on the plane substrate, our results showed that claws are very important for the propulsion generation, as the claw amputation had a highly significant effect on beetle performance, which is in accordance with the results of Stork (1980), who measured the pulling forces of the beetle Chrysolina polita on cloth amongst other substrates 4 .

The distortion is probably small in many cases but may be significant enough for professional sports like darts, golf and baseball where each throw or hit significantly influences results.

Differences between groups of p ≤ 0.05 were considered statistically significant and those with p ≤ 0.01 were highly significant.

Incidentally, an interesting trend in energy is observed with respect to the average bond angle deviation ( δ avg ) from that of graphene (120°).

Prosthesis-side knee work showed a trend toward increased negative work during swing initiation, although the trend was not statistically significant (P = 0.4, Fig.

In addition, S 2 was suggested to be a highly significant predictor of proportion of offspring sired by the second male (P 2 ) for the seminal receptacle 21 .

2 , exhibit a clear trend: the fraction of feedback loops of any length k is much smaller in biological and ecological networks than would be expected for any of the two different randomizations.

In the passive group in our study, the RV lead thresholds were generally lower than in the active fixation leads, but showed an increasing trend throughout the observation period.

Finally, although beyond the scope of this paper, a clear trend toward decreasing parameter values with time was detected for constant long-term stimulation with 12 mM glucose.

However, soil carbon stocks (TOC) or decomposability (ROC/TOC) induced significant or marginally significant effects on heterotrophic respiration rate ( Table 2 ).

Since thermograms corresponding to GAC patients showed a marked attenuation in the second individual transition compared to the healthy subjects, skewness g 1 and kurtosis g 2 were calculated for the thermograms: and only g 1 showed a clear trend and subject clustering according to severity of the disease ( Figure 4C ).

Among them, cortisol was significantly decreased and its metabolite hydroxycortisol also decreased after metformin administration, although this difference was a borderline significant trend ( Figure 2a and 2b ).

Reliable, safe and high performance lithium ion batteries are an important trend in the future 1 2 3 .
