In nonfatal severe patients, the levels of eotaxin, IL-8, IP-10, MCP-1, MIP-1α, MIP-1β and fractalkine decreased gradually as patients recovered, whereas RANTES showed an increasing trend.

While still low in comparison to Western countries, an increasing trend regarding prevalence was also observed in several Asian countries and areas, including Singapore (45%), Thailand (28.5%), Japan (20.3%) and Taiwan (13.5%) 10 – 13 .

After adjusting for age, there was an association with borderline significance between UC and NIRS (Table S1 ).

Even after adjusting for age, there was a borderline significant relationship between UC and NIRS (Table S1 ).

However, an increasing trend for lung cancer and breast cancer was observed during four periods.

showed a decreasing trend in ages at spermarche and menarche in four- or five-year intervals during 1991–2014 based on small sample size 20 .

These changes showed an overall trend from more acquisitive and less drought- and heat-tolerant strategies in low-light conditions and in MIX, to more conservative and drought-tolerant strategies in high-light conditions and in OAK.

No sex differences were observed for changes in time spent in Work , Education , Sedentary Leisure , or Other (all p > 0.1). Large and highly significant twenty-year decreases were also detected for PAL and AEE (Table 2 ; Supplementary Table S2 ).

1 shows, mean annual temperatures in the study area ranged from 10.45 °C to 14.02 °C, with an average temperature of 12.2 °C, and there was an increasing trend of 0.039 °C per year during the study period.

Data from the TCGA for breast cancer accessed through Oncomine showed a trend toward lower expression of PISD in invasive ductal carcinoma relative to normal breast tissue, although extensive overlap exists (Supplementary Fig.

The evenness showed a decreasing trend between the start and end of the experiment, and the difference was significant ( P < 0.005) in communities with high initial evenness.

Therefore, there is an increasing trend in feed industry to develop lipases as feed additives.

Eleven candidate miRNAs (shown in Supplementary Table 1 ) that were particularly abundant and for which the difference in expression in serum was highly significant were selected to determine the validity of the previously obtained results.

Nevertheless, the comparison of the different CH variants showed a trend of general better binding measurements when using the human IgG Fc capture AHC biosensors (Fig. 5 ) over that of Protein L biosensors (Fig. 3 ).

Although, we noticed an increasing trend in expression of FAS in OCILy3, it was not significantly different under hypoxia.

Initial data analysis of SUDHL2 dataset failed to detect GLUT1 and HK2 because of the highly significant pre-established criteria set for RNA enrichment co-correlation analysis.

Functional analysis of the differentially expressed mRNAs In evaluating the top differentially expressed mRNAs (n = 250), we found a highly significant enrichment for several functional annotations (Supplemental Fig. 5 ), including acetylation (genes post-translationally modified by the attachment of at least one acetyl group; n = 85 genes; Fold enrichment = 2.2; Bonferroni-adjusted p = 4.2 × 10 −11 ), mitochondrion (the site of tissue respiration

In the multivariable-adjusted model, those in quartile 3 had lower odds of severe DR or worse versus the combined no DR and minimal-moderate DR categories, than those in quartile 1 (OR, 0.35; 95% CI: 0.17 to 0.74; P = 0.006; per categorical increase in severity Model 2 in Table 2 ), and a significant trend for increasing frequency of fish consumption (P-trend = 0.024).

The maximum loading rates under different preset pressure are listed in Table 1 , where an increasing trend can be observed.

In many regions there was a clear trend for better agreement between rCPS estimates at higher injected doses.

Consistent with increased glycolysis with Age, citrate and isocitrate showed a trend towards increased abundance with Age in females (Fig.

The nitrate concentrations in the soil leachate were higher in May and mid-June than at the end of June and the end of July, and there was a decreasing trend of nitrate concentration over time.

In terms of clinical outcome, the 48 patients with EGFR mutation showed a trend towards longer DFS and a significantly longer OS, than those without EGFR mutation (Fig. 1A,B ; log-rank test, p = 0.069 and p = 0.015, respectively).

Second, an analysis of HR for bladder cancer stratified by obesity across smoking status strata showed a significant trend of increasing HR for bladder cancer across obesity and smoking status in multivariate-adjusted models.

The positive association between bladder cancer and BMI showed an increasing trend beyond the reference BMI.
