Excerpts

In fact, results of the present study showed a trend very close to statistical significance, with a moderately high effect size, and differences appeared clearer and significant after controlling for age.

The statistical analyses carried out during the study demonstrated a highly significant influence of manure (O) and differentiated mineral fertilisation (M) as well as the interaction of these factors (O x M) on the content of light PAHs (naphthalene, acenaphthene, acenaphthylene, fluorene, anthracene, fluoranthene, pyrene, chrysene) and heavy PAHs (benzo(a)anthracene, benzo(a)pyrene, benzo(b)fluoranthene, benzo(k)fluoranthene, benzo(g,h,i)perylene, indeno(1,2,3-cd)pyrene, dibenzo(a,h)anthracene) in soil (Table 1 ).

Although our cluster analysis identified well-defined clusters with an enrichment for haploinsufficient genes, we observed only a marginally significant relationship between cluster pLI enrichment and SFARI HC gene overlap.

Compared with CK, DTPA-Pb in soil after adding materials showed a decreasing trend, and the bioavailability of Pb was lowest under 2% NP treatment (133.55 mg/kg).

The soil water profile characteristics of the 0–300 cm soil under each treatment were similar, that is, there was a small increase in the 0–60 cm, a decreasing trend in 60–120 cm, and an increasing trend in 120–300 cm, but both in the 40–60 cm.

With the increase in soil depth, soil bulk density of each rotation mode showed an increasing trend.

For RFs, we also observed an increasing trend in recall (from 0.2307 to 0.5897 for the microarray RF; 0.1795 to 0.6923 for the integrative RF) and F1-score (from 0.3529 to 0.5679 for the microarray RF; from 0.2917 to 0.6353 for the integrative RF).

However, the accuracy improvement using the current model (i.e., RBFNN-GA) was highly significant compared to the previous model for other months.

The treatment of U-87 MG with blank NLCs, FA and FA-NLCs caused a highly significant reduction of c-Myc expression levels.

21 identified a decreasing trend in the albedo of bare ice and attributed it to the accumulation of dust from lateral moraines.

In addition, the allele A showed a trend of dosage effect on AP50 values (Fig. 3B ).

OBs appeared on day 10 and their number peaked on day 14, after which the number showed a decreasing trend until day 21 (Fig. 2e ).

Conclusion The effects of genotypes and explant types, as well as their interactions, on garlic callus formation were extremely significant.

Interestingly, SMOC2 was identified as a risk locus for autoimmune thyroid disease 2 and SMOC2 single nucleotide polymorphism showed a marginally significant association in female autoimmune thyroid disease patients 3 .

By analysing 39 PAs over three years before and after Colombia’s peace agreement with the Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia (FARC), we found a dramatic and highly significant increase in the deforestation rate for the majority of these areas and their buffer zones.

Recent data suggest that such biotic impacts may be significant and that their role in defining population dynamics and fermentation outcomes may have been underestimated.

By comparing the spectra (with panels arranged by increasing metal work function from the left- to the right-hand side) an obvious trend can immediately be noticed.

In the binary logistic regression model for associations with suicide attempt, education (OR = 0.89, 95% CI [0.82, 0.98], Wald χ 2 = 5.6, p = 0.018), PANSS depression factor (OR = 1.08, 95% CI [1.03, 1.13], Wald χ 2 = 11.04, p = 0.001), number of cigarettes smoked per day (OR = 1.20, 95% CI [1.18, 1.52], Wald χ 2 = 4.9, p = 0.043), and drinking status (OR = 0.40, 95% CI [0.24, 0.66], Wald χ 2 = 13.0, p < 0.001) remained significant and MTHFR Ala222Val polymorphism (OR = 1.72, 95% CI [0.94, 3.2], Wald χ 2 = 3.1, p = 0.07) approached significance.

Three loci, BIN1 (rs4663105 in Jansen et al .; rs6733839 in Kunkle et al .) with elevated risk in females, KAT8 (rs59735493 in Jansen et al .) with elevated risk in males and FERMT2 (rs17125924 in Kunkle et al .) with elevated risk in males, showed nominally significant (p inter < 0.05) sex-specific AD association.

While an increasing trend (+1.2 event/year) in debris flow occurrence can be observed, it is associated to a relatively low (0.1) level of significance.

Our data show that there was an increasing trend in TUNEL-positive cells in the groups treated with 5 (19.48 ± 4.38%) and 10 μM (40.59 ± 3.60%) piscidin-1 compared with that in the control (5.11 ± 1.39%, 0 μM piscidin-1) (Fig. 2D ).

Studying independent drivers alone might be insufficient and misleading for projecting flood risk over long timescales, especially when shifts in river morphology may be significant.

The results were clearly significant and confirmed that the PDO presents a substantial role in strengthening or weakening the ENSO effects on SST and SLP over the North Pacific, as previously reported 9 , 36 .

Furthermore, delanzomib led to a highly significant reduction of proliferation, which was equivalent to imatinib treatment (Fig. 5B ; reduction of the Ki-67-positive proliferation fraction from 26.8% in placebo-treated controls to 3.0% in delanzomib-treated tumors; decrease of phosphorylated histone H3 S10 positive mitotic cells from 88/10 HPF to 4/10 HPF).

A significant correlation occurred between Fe and Zn (0.63327), and a highly significant correlation occurred between Mn and Cu (0.89189).
