On the other hand, the time series of CO 2 concentration shows a positive trend of 2.1 ppm/yr for the same time period.

The time series of EWH anomaly shows a negative trend of 13.6 mm/y between 2003 and 2015.

Preoperative radiotherapy showed a trend of increased risk for perioperative complications but failed to reach statistical significance ( p = 0.098, OR = 6.7).

As per the enrichment analysis results of gga-miR-1612 target genes, the most significant GO was the regulation of RNA metabolic process, which showed the highest number of related GOs and highly significant within the Kappa score group.

Although it is not possible to quantify the exact degree to which response diversity to weather conditions affects the pollination service of buckwheat, its contribution is likely to be significant because the contributions of large and small insects to seed set were nearly equivalent, as evaluated by the bagging field experiment.

In fact, the prevalence of gastric cancer family history was surprisingly high even though the incidence has been on a decreasing trend.

Interestingly, a nonsignificant trend toward male sex was identifiable in the presence of VTE-L.

HF-HNF richness and phylogenetic diversity clearly showed an increasing trend with salinity.

Asymmetry can be evidence for small study effects and publication bias, based on the assumption that small studies are at greatest risk of non-significant results and biasing the published literature toward the high effect sizes that are most likely to be significant with small N 43 .

In fact, the usual dependence of the surface impedance on frequency is following the definition ( 3 ), which imposes an increasing trend.

12 , throughout the whole shear process, the number of bond cleavages showed a trend of slowing down first and then steepening before they finally stabilized.

It can be clearly observed that S400 dyads were able to converge towards optimal strategies by showing a strong trend to move from larger beam angle regions during initial successful trials (circles) to smaller beam angle regions during last successful trials (crosses), whereas S200 and S0 dyads did not.

A third possibly significant difference between our experiments is the presence of the beep tone separating the TCUs in Experiment 2, which could have disturbed the evaluation of the voices.

Compared to the historic records of the past 30 years (average temperature of 23.1 °C and annual precipitation of 1603 mm, National Meteorological Information Center of China), Guangzhou displayed a rising tendency of air temperature but a decreasing trend of annual precipitation.

A positive trend of mycorrhizal fungal spores in the soil is observed after treatments with 50% P 2 O 5 , 180 g ha −1 AMF, 75% P 2 O 5 , and 60 g ha −1 AMF.

There is a negative trend in corncob mass and mass of grain per corncob in the treatments that combined 100% P 2 O 5 with 180 g ha −1 of AMF, 75% P 2 O 5 with 120 g ha −1 of AMF, and 50% P 2 O 5 with 0 g ha −1 of AMF (no inoculation).

Like fracture stress, the estimated elastic modulus also shows a decreasing trend with increasing temperature.

For both conditions, merely 2 out of 48 specifications yielded nominally significant outcomes, which means that evidence for any beneficial effects of KV448 or other music on epilepsy seems doubtful.

1 a), an increasing trend on the order of 15% is observed in GCR′ anomalies (single prime on superscript indicates de-seasonalized data, see data).

No significant slopes were observed when using either LME method with this group, but a positive trend was observed across the three methods.

Besides, the computed mean squares (data not reported) showed highly significant variations between accessions for the assessed traits.

In the last 5 years, trends in incidence rates of PCa have remained stable in most Asian countries examined except an increasing trend observed in China 5 .

(2) In the past 119 years, the rates of change in the spatial extent of the cold regions in the NH, the Mid-to-High latitude, and the Qinghai-Tibetan Plateau were − 0.030 × 10 7 km 2 /10 a, − 0.028 × 10 7 km 2 /10 a, and − 0.013 × 10 6 km 2 /10 a, respectively, showing an extremely significant decreasing trend.

Cabo Verde, which had fluctuating infection rates for the first 13 years and then non-increasing rates for the next nine years, is predicted to have an increasing trend until at least 2030.

While both mild (MET-min/wk < 1000) and moderate-to-intense (MET-min/wk ≥ 1000) physical activity were associated with a reduced risk of dementia, regardless of the pre-stroke physical activity status, moderate-to-intense physical activity showed a trend of a reduced risk of dementia.
