ST131 isolates exhibited a strong trend in the inability to utilise five tested substrates: 5-keto-D-gluconate (5KG), D-ARAbinose (DARA), esculin, cellobiose and dulcitol, in comparison to other ST isolates.

The CXR subscore did not decrease at PE onset, however showed a trend toward improvement on Day 21, attesting to the limited sensitivity of the Bradsfield radiologic scoring to capture small CXR changes ( Table S1 ).

Diabetes mellitus showed a trend toward significance (OR 2.82, 95% CI 0.99–8.0).

Thirty-one additional metabolites showed a trend towards up-regulation (n = 23) or down-regulation (n = 8).

However, the endpoint for the incident of proteinuria might lack the statistical and biological power, because p values were at the threshold of significance.

P-values≥0.05 and <0.10 were considered a significant trend.

Conversely, injection of untreated brain extracts and homogenates treated with control-beads resulted in a highly significant induction of Aβ deposition mostly in the corpus callosum and hippocampal fimbriae.

For instance, providing validation that the above targets might be significant is a recent finding that, when stimulated with Ang1 for 2 or more hours, neutrophils increased their IL-8 de novo synthesis [12] , an effect that did not extend to Ang2.

These data reveal an obvious trend toward smaller step sizes as mucus solids concentration increases.

At lower radiation doses, WT p53 conferred a slightly significant survival advantage in H1299 cells; however, after a dose of 6 Gy, there was no difference in the survival of H1299 cells, regardless of p53 mutation status.

Comparing the treated heterozygous sws 1 flies to treated controls ( elav >lacZ) showed a highly significant difference with a p-value of 0.0008.

Although our results showed that the expression of this cytokine was higher at the start of treatment, this elevated expression did not translate into production, which only showed a trend toward being higher than in control individuals.

Only in the Luminal group, a borderline significant difference in AUC between the subtype specific and non-subtype specific predictor was observed (corrected p-value: 0.0709).

The confidence interval for the difference between positive and negative control groups was highly significant ( Figure 4 ).

Because there was no interaction effect and the main effect of predator presence was marginally non-significant, we reran the ANCOVA without the interaction term.

A positive trend was indicated towards LTG.

In our analysis, we did not observe any statistical difference in these aspects, but a favorable trend in LTG was found.

Both of them also observed a significant trend in decrease of plasma ApoE levels from ε2 to ε4 carriers, with ε4/ε4 carriers expressing the lowest ApoE levels in the peripheral.

The Asia monsoon exhibited a decreasing trend ( Figure 9 (b) ) [62] , [63] , as did summer insolation, although winter insolation presented an increasing trend at 25°N ( Figure 9 (c) ) [64] .

Dermatology Life Quality Index (DLQI) showed a trend toward an improvement, the mean score was 2.1 at baseline (range 0–7) and decreased to 1.0 (range 0–3) after cycle 3.

P-values ≤0.05 were considered significant (*), P-values ≤0.01 were considered highly significant (**).

This study shows an increasing trend in the spatiotemporal distribution of DF in the Asia-Pacific region over the study period.

Within the primary analyses, while there were trends of interest, no other pathways were method-wide or nominally significant.

The accumulation of vWF + CXCR4 + cells was not significantly reduced by AMD3100 AMD3100 treatment reduced the total number of CXCR4 + cells and CXCR4 + α-SMA + per vessel in the pulmonary arteries of SuHx animals, but there was only a small trend towards reduced number of CXCR4 + vWF + cells after AMD3100 treatment ( Figure 9A-C ).

No significant association was found between CMV seropositivity and job characteristics (p = 0.271) or number of children<18 years old at home (p = 0.058), although this factor was borderline significant.
