In general, short query lengths negatively impact homology-based functional prediction as they may decrease the significance of pairwise similarities due to added noise.
Not all cytobands genetically linked to AE have been discovered, which might increase the pre-test probability of the overlap and decrease the significance of the above findings.
Although no high yield was achieved in the whole process, the low value of this raw material (considered a waste in the winery industry) and the purity of the fractions obtained decrease the significance of the global yield.
Automatic adjustment of parameters is strongly recommended, because manually-adjusted parameters decrease the significance of the results, just like arbitrary assumptions decrease the significance of a theory.
Some municipalities decrease the significance of their SMRs (so that their previous high relative risk has been partially explained by their level of magnesium).
Fitting microbial biomass before plant species richness in additional sequential analyses rendered the effect of plant species richness on Collembola density insignificant (F1,73 = 6.10, P = 0.016 changed to F1,72 = 3.44, P = 0.068) and decreased the significance of the effects on Oribatida density in 2008 (F1,73 = 8.99, P = 0.004 changed to F1,72 = 5.06, P = 0.027).
As expected, when the diameter of a microwell decreases, the significance of surface forces increases and the importance of inertial forces decrease.
The transformation improved the normalization of the model residuals and decreased the significance of the associations but identified the same associations.
Nanoparticles' drying increases the risk of changing the sample through shrinking, breaking down, or agglomeration and decreases the significance of the result, especially when biomedical applications are considered [20, 21].
However, the IVS measured in systole decreased, the significance of which is not known.
