"render unlikely" is a valid and usable expression in written English.
You can use it to suggest that something makes the possibility of another thing occurring less likely. For example, "The recent changes have rendered it unlikely that the project will be completed on time."
Peace treaties with Egypt and Jordan render unlikely any hostile coalition of neighboring countries.
We are searching for the social conditions which render unlikely commitments likely.
However, relevant technical and methodological considerations render unlikely a direct comparison of findings from these studies with those hereby presented (different stimulus parameters, frequency of pattern reversal, spatial features of checks, sweep recording times, and experimental procedure for VEP acquisition during or after HV).
However, comparison of this NK subset with NK-ireg cells reveals important differences that render unlikely any hypothesis of a kinship.
The analyses not only fail to reject the null hypothesis, but also render unlikely a population effect size that differs greatly from zero.
Although one could postulate the coexistence of group 2 viruses circulating in UK pigs, the failure to detect this virus at the time of slaughter in 22 of 23 pigs from whom virus could be sequenced would seem to render unlikely high-level viremia and possible infectivity of group 2 viruses through the contribution of UK pig meat to the food chain.
The elderly king's health renders unlikely his intervention in the current crisis.
But comparison between the time course of HV-induced modifications in inhibitory mechanisms as revealed by TMS studies (5 10 min after HV ends [10, 11]) and in our sensorial responses following repetitive stimulation (immediately after HV ends) renders unlikely that our HV-induced VEP amplitude changes derive from transient inhibitory cortical dysfunction.
Comparisons of substitution rates between the different lineages were highly non significant at 1.25%, indicating that all species evolve at very similar rates, thus rendering unlikely a possible artefact caused by long branches (data not shown).
Ancient asexuality might be suggested by the wide geographic distribution, but rendered unlikely by presence of fully developed soft tissue (i.e., spermatheca) in the mating apparatus of M. smithii queens and low genetic variability between populations.
While essentiality was originally thought to be associated with small genomes, this notion is contradicted by the recent example of Shigella flexneri [7] rendering unlikely the hypothesis of the absence of an alternative mechanism for mRNA quality control in bacteria with reduced coding capacity.
