Sentence examples for may reflect false from inspiring English sources

It should be noted that if the BDNF-gene Val66Met polymorphism is an uncommon disease locus or one with a small effect, the failure to demonstrate a significant association may reflect false negative results due to a small sample size.

If a replication study fails to corroborate the results of the original study, either the original study or the replication study may reflect false findings [ 73, 74].

Py and Pb are evolutionarily close, so the large difference in the number of annotated genes may reflect false annotations in both genomes.

Given that many of the co-evolving expression clusters and the co-expression clusters identified within D. simulans may reflect false positives, a small fraction of overlap between these cluster types might be expected.

The majority of both eGenes and eQTLs were reported in only one dataset, which may reflect false positives, tissue-specific results, or a lack of statistical power, and SNP and/or transcript coverage differences across studies.

PPP results may reflect both false-positives and false-negatives for proteins that are not simultaneously required for and restricted to the occurrence of a system in a genome.

While the sensitivity was lower than IHC, the results may reflect potential false positives commonly seen in IHC.

The low spatial consistency of the remaining "other" sVx (peaks ≤ 3 subjects) suggests they may reflect idiosyncrasies or false positives.

These levels are slightly lower than those previously reported in an Arabidopsis transcript profiling study (55% to 61% detected genes) [65], and may reflect a larger number of false gene predictions (pseudogenes) from the genome annotation.

As noted above, a part of the explanation may reflect the need to reduce false positives for novelty.

Thus, we cannot completely exclude the possibility that the absence of allelic association with CAD in the North-American cohort may reflect a type 2 error (false negative results).
