2 show a decreasing trend in the thermal conductivity with temperature, which is expected due to the increase in phonon-phonon scattering at higher temperatures 35 .

The linkage of different chromosomal numbers to sex is statistically highly significant (p = (1/2) 13 = 0.00012) [we studied 13 individuals and probability that it would be found in a given sex just by chance is 1⁄2], which supports the identification of the chromosomes differing between males and females as the sex chromosomes.

Patients followed up with less than 68.5 months demonstrated a nearly significant correlation between CD44 and Furhman grade (RR = 0.68, 95% CI 0.43–1.07).

There was, however, a weak trend towards increased frequencies and absolute counts of circulating T tm subset in CD4 + T cells in the meth user group but this did not reach statistical significance ( p < 0.1 in both cases).

This map only provides information for thirteen provincial regions, and we could not find an obvious trend in the geographic distribution of BPH.

There, biomass burning displayed an increasing trend starting ca. 4000 BP and remained high and stable over the last 2000 years.

The surgical duration for WAVS-assisted encircling buckling showed a decreasing trend, although there were no significant differences, probably because the surgical duration included the time spent on procedures other than marking, cryopexy, and final check of the fundus.

caspica assimilating branches did not significantly change with increasing levels of salinity in this study, a decreasing trend in K + content was observed with increasing salt stress.

For T2D after polymyalgia rheumatica the difference was of borderline significance (1.68, 95% CI 1.56–1.81 for men and 1.92, 95% CI 1.81–2.03 for women).

Most of the variables in the subcategory analyses did not significantly vary between the LR and OR groups; however, a favorable trend toward LR was found.

There is an obvious trend that the corrosion potential moves to the positive direction and the corrosion current density decreases with increasing immersion time.

The values *p < 0.05 were considered as significant, **p < 0.01 more significant and ***p < 0.001 highly significant.

These data showed a strong and highly significant correlation between ADRB activity and ELISA titer.

Expression of mRNA for serum amyloid A1 (SAA1) was significantly reduced and expression of mRNA for α 2-macroglobulin (A2M) showed a trend of a reduction ( Fig. 5d ).

If the AMOC collapse would have developed even slower, the increase in heat uptake would not have been able to compensate the increased radiative forcing and GMT would have been characterised with a positive trend, albeit weaker than in case of no AMOC shutdown.

In case of an AMOC shutdown global cooling sets in when the sum of net radiative forcing and ocean heat transport convergence in the NH display a negative trend.

4a ) indicates an oxygen deficit for the 50 nm and 150 nm PZT layers, with a clear trend of increase in the oxygen content towards the stoichiometric value for the 250 nm layer.

As noted in a number of observational and modeling studies, the last decades witnessed a positive trend in zonal wind speed over the Southern Ocean, combined with a southward shift in the location of the zone of the highest wind speeds (i.e., prevalence of the positive phase of the SAM index 21 22 ).

At present, we can only speculate that the increased variance of the cross-frontal temperature differences has been at least partly responsible for the lack of a negative trend in large and values, that can be seen in the affected zones along profiles A, B, E, and F.

As expected, NLK secretion by chondrocytes also shows a decreasing trend following passaging ( Fig. 2C ).

Although no significant differences were observed after 1 min, the differences appeared after 2 min of erosion and became highly significant thereafter.

In fact, the observed predicted classification can be translated to a highly significant difference between the two groups.

Consequently, an increasing trend in the eco-exergy to empower ratios was exhibited in all three forest plantations.

For Guangdong population, SBP, SBP, DBP, PP, MAP, weight, HDL-c and GLU were higher in the HT group in contrast to the controls (p < 0.05), with an increasing trend but no significance for height, TG, TC and LDL-c (p > 0.05).

However, similar to high voltage shocks, tertiapin treatment showed a trend to flatten the curve of the relationship between PPI and shock-induced AP amplitude ( Fig. 7c ).
