“a possible trend”

Nevertheless, although absolute numbers are low, there was a higher incidence of new MI at year one (with a possible trend towards a greater positive history of MI at recruitment).

In the epilepsy model, although statistical significance was not reached, music exposure tended to shorten seizure latency and increase seizure severity, indicating a possible trend toward increased excitability, which should be interpreted cautiously given the small sample size.

Although unpowered to assess the prognostic or predictive impact of EGFR mutation and copy number, a possible trend toward a positive predictive role of the mutation (and copy number) was proposed in JBR10. • LACE BIO (ANITA, JBR10, IALT and CALBG 9633) : High class III beta tubulin (TUBB3) expression maintained the negative prognostic impact seen in previous analysis (HR for death = 1.3; p = .001).

This observation indicates a possible trend toward polyploidization during the aging process, which is a well known phenomenon in mouse liver [ 5 , 34 - 36 ].

The effect of the compounds was non-significant (F 6,252 = 3.41, p = 0.08, Figure 11 B), suggesting a possible trend in differential antennal responses among compounds.

Although statistical significance was not reached, patients with type 3 lymphatic patterns exhibited numerically longer durations of pleural effusion and hospital stay, suggesting a possible trend toward more complex postoperative courses, consistent with the previous literature.[ 2 , 3 , 7 ] However, these findings should be interpreted with caution due to the exploratory nature of the study and small subgroup sizes.

The first investigated a possible trend over time (as represented by sampling year), and the second focused on the effect of region (‘North’ and ‘South’; Figure 1 ) and habitat type (‘Wild’ and ‘Human’).

The estimated coefficient for children with a normal BMI was – 0.84 ( p = 0.28), thus suggesting a possible trend toward a lower probability of caries compared with underweight children, although this difference was not significant.

Our sensitivity analyses on the NCCP subgroup showed a possible trend for higher reassurance in the Discussion arm (Additional file 6 ) but these differences were smaller than seen in the NZ study and not sustained at 6 months, and not considered to be clinically relevant.

Only a small subset of the dataset tumors was clinically annotated for degree of lymphocytic infiltration [ 6 , 29 ], and an initial analysis of these few Tneg cases suggested a possible trend between the HRneg/Tneg score and the degree of lymphocytic infiltration (data not shown).

Although not statistically significant ( p = 0.46), the observed difference suggests a possible trend toward an increase in glycogen level in the SL group.

However, the right ear latency data for the Wave I slow rate and Wave V fast rate indicated a possible trend toward hearing issues for flight line personnel working on F-15 aircraft based on the ABR tests. 3.10.

Conversely, the expression levels of IFN-γ and TGF-β exhibited a moderate but non-significant increase ( P = 0.1347 and P = 0.0711, respectively), indicating a possible trend toward immune modulation.

Therefore, there is a possible trend to develop and utilize sericin from silk fibroin-deficient silkworms as raw materials for commercial functional food.

Whatever the concentration of plasmid DNA, ssbB Δ 7 and wildtype cells behaved similarly; a possible trend toward a ∼2-fold higher transformation rate in ssbB Δ 7 than in wildtype cells at high plasmid DNA concentrations was tentatively attributed to the increased protection of ssDNA in the former cells ( Figure 5 ).

NIRS indicated a possible trend for improved muscle oxygen utilisation.

This finding should be interpreted as a possible trend rather than definitive evidence of functional adaptation (Fig. 2 ).

[ 20 ] projected climate change impacts on beach conditions would lead to a 7% decline per decade in leatherback turtles on a major nesting beach in Costa Rica, suggesting a possible trend for Mediterranean nesting beaches as well.

Possible Trends Interest A possible trend was noted regarding interest in providing future telepractice services between those SLPs who had experience in telepractice versus those who had not.

Unfortunately, that particular “cooling cap” did not yield a significant difference between cerebral temperature and bladder temperature (taken as a surrogate for systemic temperature), and there were no differences in mortality or neurologic outcome between the groups.[ 9 ] In 2001, the NABISH I trial identified a possible trend toward improved outcome in patients who were hypothermic at the time of admission when treated with ongoing hypothermia.

Although this pattern was not statistically significant, it suggests a possible trend that warrants further investigation.

For thorax length, the results suggest a possible trend toward static hypoallometry for this trait; while the statistical significance is marginal ( P = 0.07), the confidence interval for the slope fails to include 1 ( Table 4 ).

Similarly, the very limited data in this study suggest a possible trend towards a reduction in lower extremity amputation rates and a reduction in infection relapse and reinfection rates in pravibismane, compared to placebo treated DFIs.

Fluorescence spectroscopy of tissue lysates from PEG-DMG-LNP-treated animals revealed no statistically significant differences in tumor accumulation but showed a possible trend towards more tumor accumulation when animals were pre-treated with liposomes for both Cy5.5 (control 3.17 % vs liposomes 5.92 %) ( Fig. 3 f) and Cy7 (control 3.61 % vs liposomes 7.04 %) ( Fig. 3 g).

Margin width was not clearly associated with regional or distant metastasis, yet a possible trend toward greater distant spread with narrower margins was noted.
