Excerpts

A p value of less than 0.05 (*) represents a significant difference, and a p value of less than 0.01 (**) represents a highly significant difference.

Presence of intermediate PD GLM analysis showed that the effect of germination time of mother plants and cold stratification time were highly significant, but effect of treatment (i.e. intact silicles and isolated seeds) and any interactions was not significant ( Table 2 ).

The results of the ELISA did not reach statistical significance, perhaps because of fewer replications and high individual variation, but it showed a decreasing trend.

Herein, BEZ increased TNF-α and showed a trend to increase in IL-6 levels in the ipsilateral hippocampus.

The gout to diabetes association was modified by BMI ( P interaction = 0.04) and hypertension ( P interaction = 0.007), and it was marginally significant in adults with BMI<24 while significant among non-hypertensive participants, but not in their counterparts.

Quantification of colony scatter confirmed a highly significant increase in cell motility following treatment with either 1 μM or 5 μM S1P ( Fig. 3A ; ρ < 0.001).

aMCI showed a trend toward decreased FC with fusiform gyrus, precuneus, cuneus, angular gyrus, thalamus, temporal lobe, and cerebellum.

Furthermore, the coefficients of variation (CV) of RI 10 (953%), RI 30 (91.9%) and RI 60 (87.9%) showed a decreasing trend with increasing aggregation time, compared to the CV of RI, at 209%.

H and BLAI were two crown characteristics to explain T C with marginal significance.

Relationships between throughfall and interception with crown characteristics The linear and logarithmic models showed marginally significant or significant correlations of T C with H and BLAI, explained merely 1.4 and 0.3% of the variations, respectively.

In addition, the Egger test (P = 0.853) did not suggest significant evidence of publication bias and the P value of the Begg test (P = 0.048) was marginally significant.

Contrary to the predictions of the problem individuals hypothesis, we did not find a reduction, but instead a suggestive trend of an increase, in conflict kills following periods with high conflict removal of bears.

The MHC-I protein level showed a trend to downregulation, and the mRNA level was significantly decreased.

Comparison of the microsatellite panels for A R and H E in the two populations reveals a decreasing trend in the order of MP, SNI, ALL, and SS values.

Population differentiation ( F ST ) showed an increasing trend in order of MP, SNI, ALL, and SS values.

After restricting the patient population to those exhibiting specific primary diseases (e.g., schizophrenia or bipolar disorder), the DM frequency was still highly significant.

Also, when analysing the latitude, after the inclusion of 10 PCs, the slope is only borderline significant.

Instead of that, if the latitude heritability drops to 68% after inclusion of the first two PCs, adding more PCs only results in a slow decrease, and the heritability remains highly significant.

34 illustrated that an increase in the DO level resulted in an increase in the total bound EPS, and there was an increasing trend in protein and total soluble EPS content with the thermophilic high DO condition.

Remarkably, AglaPBP2 was expressed at a 200-fold higher level in antennae than in other tissues, and these differences were statistically highly significant.

Among order 3–10 which constituted the majority of the top one-fifth of clones non-carriers had order 3, 4, 5, and 10 with positive shifts but carriers had only order 9 with such a positive trend ( Fig. 4C ).

3C ) through the levels show a clear trend.

Camk2b T287A/T287A mice showed a trend towards reduced locomotion compared to their wildtype littermates, however this difference was not significant (effect of genotype: F 1,21 = 3.72, p = 0.07; effect of time: F 1,21 = 6.47, p < 0.001; interaction: F 1,21 = 0.71, p = 0.59, repeated measures ANOVA; Fig. 1e ).

We showed here that loss of autophosphorylation of CAMK2B at the T287 site does not significantly affect rotarod behaviour, although a small trend could be seen.

Areas having significant or highly significant negative correlations between the annual mean NDVI and the potential NPP accounted for 0.3% of the global grassland area, whereas 15.5% and 25.7% of the area showed significant positive and highly significant positive correlations, respectively.
