Other studies in Denmark [ 11], the US [ 16], and France [ 17] found varying or even no differences in primary care resource utilisation in comparisons among patients with AD with differing degrees of impairment, and versus non-AD dementia or control cohorts without dementia.
There is a documented relationship between falls and muscle strength in the elderly [ 32]; however, results are controversial and other studies show minimal or even no differences in strength between fallers and non-fallers [ 38, 39].
Note that even if no difference is observed on activity, fluctuations are significantly different.
Specifically, V̇O2max comparisons through the mean values can mask a considerable between-trials variability in a few participants, even when no difference between the mean values is identified (i.e. P > 0.05).
The scores were lower with α-galactosidase even if no difference was statistically significant.
The German group even found no difference in urinary NNAL between shisha smokers and non-smokers (Schubert et al, 2011b).
In addition, FGF21-KO mice displayed increased alpha-cell population even though no difference was found in mRNA or serum levels of glucagon.
It is worth noting, however, that Nieuwenhuizen et al. [ 67] found that A. deliciosa female flowers produce more scent than male flowers even though no difference in gene expression was found between flowers of the two sexes.
With regard to leg traits, the femora of females were on average 16% thicker than those of males (F1,118 = 79, P < 0.0001), even though no difference between the sexes was detected in femur length (F1,118 = 2.3, P = 0.13).
Even where no differences in the DOC leaching between the light and dark treatments were observed, microbial growth started earlier in the dark treatments containing plastics indicating that irradiated DOC derived from plastics might undergo photochemical transformation affecting microbial growth.
