“a clear trend”

A clear trend in acuity was observed across the HF subtypes ( Supplementary Material 2 , cr.elmerpub.com ).

Although the sample sizes for mild and moderate hearing loss were too small for statistical significance, a clear trend indicated that milder hearing loss correlated with a higher likelihood of recovery [ 8 ].

Recent publications show a clear trend from stoichiometric rutile-type IrO 2 catalysts towards materials with metallic character, IrO x –Ir.

The relationship between HPV and OS after the treatment showed a clear trend toward a longer survival of HPV-positive patients ( Figure 4 A) as described elsewhere [ 40 ].

It is notable that in our experiments apoA-I shows a clear trend toward increasing glucose uptake, but in contrast to other studies ( 6 , 7 ), it is not significant, whereas rHDL and the 190–243 peptide produce significant insulin-like effects.

The time constants, however, do not follow a clear trend but illustrate that an equilibrium is reached after ca. 50–60 min.

In spite of the statistically insignificant difference in tumor volume between TMZ and OxAc/hGOT/TMZ groups there is a clear trend of improvement after the combination treatment.

The described odds ratios indicated a clear trend of higher smartphone use associated with increased odds of myopia development.

In Figure 4 , there is a clear trend of the increased relative abundance of Acidaminococcus , Prevotella , and Megasphaera in the TCM group and a decreased abundance in the F-TCM group; all three genera are considered to be SCFA-producing bacteria [ 70 , 72 ], suggesting that the diet supplemented with Fructus mume and Scutellaria baicalensis Georgi increased the abundance of SCFA-producing bacteria in the hindgut, which may have promoted the intestinal health of the weaned piglets.

Moreover, recent applications also show a clear trend toward the utilization of multiple responsive micelles with more than one type of therapeutic payload (Deng et al., 2018 ; Wang J. et al., 2018 ).

Intriguingly, the expression of lgg-1 induced by Cry5B, although showed a clear trend of decrease in the prmt-7(tm4890) mutant, was not statistically significant compared to WT animals treated with Cry5B.

Another interesting finding was the fact that despite the controversy regarding the use of a one or two incision approach in repairs of DBT ruptures, 15 there was a clear trend towards preferring to use a single incision approach (∼70%).

The distribution of the scores evidenced a clear trend to reward the samples on the right side of the Napping map (C_BD, N_CV, P_CV, M_CV), with a few of the experts rewarding the samples of the left side (H_OR, F_OR, D_BD, A_BD).

A clear trend was seen in climatological parameters where temperature and humidity were rising decade by decade although NDVI did not show.

The current study using real‐world data revealed a clear trend for elderly patients aged ≥ 80 to be less likely to receive treatment for recurrence, especially for extrahepatic lesions.

On the other hand, topography of La oxide coatings did not shown a clear trend in the R a values with the deposition parameters ( Table 1 ) .

For voltages below 5 V, a clear trend was not observed in the hysteresis error, but for voltages over 5 V, the HE showed some reduction amid incremental voltages. 4.5.

Furthermore, a clear trend is observed when comparing across devices: the hysteresis magnitude increases with the shell thickness, implying that thicker ZnSe shells facilitate more pronounced charge storage within the QDs.

There is a clear trend to consider progression-free survival (PFS) as a more relevant endpoint when assessing the antitumor effects of molecular targeted therapies.

This demonstrated a clear trend between the expansion of cells in culture before gene targeting and the percentage of cells that underwent HR, which was CD34 + cell source (CB and PB) and donor independent.

However, by distributing the M:F ratio by decades of publication of the studies ( Figure 2 ), we observed a clear trend to 1:1 ratio.

Especially, the cross‐correlation between the age of researchers and their experience with reticular materials in Figure 2e shows a clear trend: apart from being a field attracting young minds, the research spans across the globe, with survey participants from 38 countries (Figure 2d ).

Subsequently, one‐way ANOVA and post hoc Tukey statistical tests were carried out on the skills that did not show a clear trend across all categories to determine if there really was a significant difference in the results between the different year groups and degree subjects.

This difference was apparent, either as a clear trend or with statistical significance, for both qualified and complete IOP outcomes.

7 C & D) further confirmed a clear trend in the increasing number of positive blood vessels in PCL-sim/GEL and PCL-sim/GEL-sp groups compared with the PCL/GEL and PCL-sim/GEL groups.
