Do multiple listings of new accounts affect your credit score?

I recently obtained a new mortgage and line of credit.  I see Experian, with which I have a monitoring service, has listed the same mortgage twice and the same line of credit three times.  I've noticed similar duplications in the past.  Does this affect my credit score adversely -- more adversely than if they were listed only once?
