Excerpts

For the near future, issues of flood control and disaster reduction are still highly significant along the Yangtze River, and flood control is still the primary task of development and protection in this area.

The Yichang, Zhicheng, and Shashi stations showed a decreasing trend in the corresponding water levels at the same flow rate in the 4 time periods of 1955–1968, 1969–1987, 1988–2002, and 2003–2016.

In addition, a strong and highly significant reduction in the genus Clostridium was observed, which suggests that these bacteria may promote intestinal Th17 cell differentiation and arthritis 46 .

In literature, some reports show PL stability over the change in pH 69 while some showed a decreasing trend in both acidic and alkali medium 70 , 71 .

A non-parametric smoothing line, called a LOWESS line, shows a clear trend of predicted height; however, at the predicted diameter extremes the deviations are dictated by relatively little data.

For screen exposure, its association with poor mental health was moderately significant (p-value 0.025).

According to Log-rank (Mantel-Cox) Test and Gehan-Breslow-Wilcoxon Test showed highly significant difference *** & ** respectively (Fig. 8 ).

We found that although there was a strong trend for a relationship between ACS and Lp-PLA2 after adjustment of ox-LDL (OR = 1.69, 95%CI = 0.90–3.17), this result did not reach statistical significance.

In the fully adjusted model, the decrease in the effect size was close to being significant.

In testing the PD mutants, we found that all three strains showed a trend towards decreased ethanol avoidance behavior, but the difference only reached significance in pdr-1 worms (Fig. 1g ).

In this study, the PCCA model of secondary forest had no harmful collinearity (VIFs of 6 variables were below 3.5, see Table 4 ) and was highly significant.

However, the mean confidence of incorrect predictions did not follow an obvious trend as λ 1 grew (Fig. 5D ).

The highly significant SNPs associated with SYF were mainly located on GGA17 and GGA28.

Our CGM data showed that patients who received metformin add-on insulin therapy had significantly improved glycemic variations in terms of MAGE, SD, CV%, and time spent on and the incremental AUC of glucose concentrations ≥10 mmol/L, which might be significant in avoiding long-term diabetic complications.

Most of the genes have not been reported to show borderline significance with BMI, as detailed in Table S2 .

Our results also showed that administered blood product volumes were highly significant predictors of both outcomes, even on their own.

The follicular CD20+ lymphocyte counts showed an increasing trend from CT group 1 [129.67 (69.08–247.42)/0.1 mm 2 ] to CT group 2 [231.00 (81.83–391.17)/0.1 mm 2 ] to CT group 3 [312.00 (132.96–482.96)/0.1 mm 2 ], but the difference was not statistically significant (p = 0.085) (Table 5 ).

The follicular CD20+ lymphocyte counts showed a trend of gradual elevation from the FVC improved group to the FVC stable group and finally to the FVC worsened group (Table 4 ).

A p value ≤ 0.05 was considered as significant, p > 0.01 highly significant.

The controls for T cells also showed a trend of higher migration towards the positive control, but differences were not significant (Supplementary Fig.

4c left) and a positive trend (albeit not statistically significant) towards an increase in inhibition with higher anti- Pf CSP antibodies was also observed (Fig. 4c right).

The concentrations of most of the PPCPs detected in plasma reflected a decreasing trend that corresponded with the exposure gradient of the caging locations within CPM (CPM1 > CPM2 > CPM3 > JH), except for amitriptyline, citalopram, erythromycin-H 2 O, gemfibrozil, and hydrocortisone.

(2015) reported that TGF-β receptor type 3 was a candidate gene associating with an extremely significant difference in the FCR in chicken 68 .

Analysis of correlation (Spearman ranking) revealed highly significant correlation between log2 fold-change values of DE genes in Brachypodium and identified homologs across the whole wheat genome ( r = 0.83), A genome RBB homologs ( r = 0.85), B genome RBB homologs ( r = 0.81) and D genome RBB homologs ( r = 0.82) respectively.

In general, our results indicate an increasing trend in Δn for higher As-content in the dilute-As GaNAs alloy.
