“a slight trend”

Both groups showed comparable survival patterns, with a slight trend toward reduced survival in WNT-altered patients at later follow-up, though this was not statistically significant.

However, a slight trend can be observed in the total measurable samples with the micro‐punches approach.

Although the switch cohort comprised a smaller number of participants, similar results were observed as with the rollover cohort, except for a slight trend where participants with baseline TMC scores above the median of 12.5 received higher dosages (median dosage, 60 mg/d) to achieve TMC response (Figs. 2 , 3 , 4 ).

Although there is a slight trend towards increased levels of PAPC and POPC, these changes are not statistically significant ( Figure 3A ).

There were no effects involving the grouping variable, P s ≥ 0.08, though sampling differences resulted in a slight trend for those to be tested with the same outcome to respond insignificantly more on some trials (e.g., trials 5 and 6) than those to be tested with a different outcome, a trend we mention here as it persisted throughout the experiment.

Interestingly, MYC and ERK showed no substantial difference, with ERK showing a slight trend towards higher expression ( p -value 0.03, FDR adj.

However, there was a slight trend for decreased phospho-AKT (pAKT) and pS6 levels in response to BRAF and MEK1/2 inhibition in sensitive cell lines (BCPAP, SW1736), but not in resistant cells (T238, TCO1) (Supplementary Figure S3).

There was a slight trend for greater numbers of newly detectable TCR clones observed on treatment in the experimental arm (PEG + FOLFOX) compared with the control arm (FOLFOX) at C2D13 and C4D13 (Appendix Fig A 6 A, online only).

The analysis showed that the age of the participant did not correlate with the amount donated to charity [ rs (72) = 0.209, p = 0.08], however, a slight trend was seen indicating that older adults might donate more.

Regarding PA, as in previous studies [ 18 , 19 , 20 ], at the end of the intervention, there were no differences in PA levels between the groups, although both showed a slight trend towards improvement; this was in line with the improvement trends found in both groups in terms of motivation towards PA (external motivation and amotivation).

The only finding associated with canakinumab treatment was a slight reduction in the number of fetuses at the high dose, which correlated with a slight trend toward decreased placental weight.

The increased size also appears to be dose specific as adip-crePTP1B +/− mice only displayed a slight trend towards enlarged adipocytes on a HFD ( Figure 1G and H ).

A slight trend between oestradiol levels and better sexual function was observed, with patients with oestradiol levels > 50 pg/ml reporting median result at all questionnaires within the normal ranges (as detailed in Fig. 3 ), yet without reaching statistical significance.

For nitrification, no specific pattern was observed, although a slight trend for higher rates [especially with regard to nitrate consumption, up to 60 mg N (kg DM day) −1 ] at higher spikes might be recognizable.

We note that there is a slight trend toward fewer clusters with reduced expression of DHC, suggesting that dynein activity may contribute to perinuclear localization of mitochondria to some extent, but it is not statistically significant.

46–49 In the IR group, serum insulin and HOMA-IR levels were observed to be elevated twofold; however, in the OB-IR group, these values were elevated almost fourfold compared to those of the NIR group, with a slight trend toward increased glucose levels.

The GFAPδ/ε sequences are initially more hydrophobic, but where the GFAPα sequences have a slight trend towards a hydrophobic nature in the middle of the tail region, the GFAPδ/ε tails have a more pronounced hydrophobic stretch, and a less hydrophilic C-terminal (which is truncated in the rat sequence).

Similarly, the PD patient group exhibited a slight trend of increased high beta Z-scores in the fronto-central regions (absolute high beta Z -Score: Fz = 1.347; Cz = 1.204; P3 = 1.180; Pz = 1.116).

However, the high-dose Lepalvir group exhibited a slight trend toward superior effectiveness compared to the control group.

However, data analysis revealed a slight trend of an increasing proportionality constant with increasing density of graphite foils.

(2020) , which reported a slight trend for a lower RTD H/Q ratio at 50 ms in previously injured hamstrings ( Correia et al., 2020 ), and the results of Grazioli et al.

Furthermore, we sampled circulating free fatty acids (FFA) from GPS2-AKO and WT littermates and found a slight trend to decrease but no significant differences.

We noted a slight trend in reduction of neurons in single UBQLN1 Tg mice in both the dentate gyrus and CA1 regions compared to Non-Tg mice, but the difference was not significant.

Additionally, radiographic fracture line visibility did not fully correlate with clinical healing, and a slight trend toward increased callus formation in the LIPUS group was not statistically significant due to the limited sample size.

Moreover, regarding changes in soil pH, although a slight trend of soil acidification was observed in plots from the sub-trial with mineral nitrogen supply, a significant effect between counterpart treatments was observed only in the SLU-treated plots.
