“a slight trend”

Despite lacking statistical differences between the infection-alone group and the infected larvae treated with FCZ (4 μg/larvae), a slight trend was observed in which larvae survived more with FCZ treatment.

2 ), there was a slight trend toward alteration of the bacterial composition of some genera in Firmicutes: with pretreatment there was a decrease in Faecalibacterium in some individuals, a marginal increase in Blautia , but no apparent change in Ruminococcus ( Faecalibacterium , p = 0.421; Blautia , p = 0.661; Ruminococcus , p = 0.839) (Fig. 2 ; Group 2).

In our study, using seven mice, we detected a slight trend toward more rightward rotations in control animals that, however, was statistically not significant.

There was a slight trend toward increased tonic action potential half-width at CT 8–12 ( Fig. 4 F), similar to the wider action potentials observed during the evening under LD conditions (ZT 8–12).

There was a slight trend (in each country) for longer-duration contacts to have occurred outside ( Fig. 2 ). 3.8 Mean contacts by characteristics 3.8.1 Age, gender, households size The reported mean contacts for school-aged children (5–11 and 12–17 years of age) in the UK and Netherlands were similar at around 14 contacts per person per day, whereas Belgium and Switzerland were lower with both at around 10 contacts ( Table 3 ).

Nevertheless, we do observe that for ORFs longer than 550 amino acids, there is a slight trend toward the larger genomes containing more of these longer genes than the smaller genomes.

A slight trend towards less radiogenic values is present moving from the cave up to the Lessini plateau, whilst the opposite is the case moving towards the Adige Valley and the Po Plain.

Only a slight trend suggested that the highly educated engaged more in recreational and household activities than those with primary education.

3F through I ), we find that HAdV-F40 and F41 display a very similar behavior with small and mostly non-significant differences in all conditions, albeit showing a slight trend toward higher mobility for HAdV-F40 over F41.

As we can see, there is a slight trend of the velocity changes with AWC, and in contrast, navigating without AWC has more sharp variations both in linear and angular velocity.

There is a slight trend of increasing dose coverage with increasing volume.

In the two rescue cell lines (KO WT and KO Q107A ), there was a slight trend in the upregulation of the expression of the Rab3B and Rab34, which was only significant in the case of Rab3B for the rescue with the WT construct (Fig. 8b ).

[ 106 ] affirmed that compensated cirrhotics may not directly benefit from probiotics supplementation, which was substantiated by clinical and laboratory tests, but rather may benefit from a slight trend of reduction in serum NH3 above the normal baseline.

However, there was a slight trend to reduce cellular collagen I quantities (Fig. 3 A,B).

There is a slight trend in the central tendency, as median variability in this metric appears to decrease as time increases.

Changes in growth rates Mussels collected and reintroduced in 2015 showed a slight trend for decreasing shell growth rates over time, consistent among species but not statistically significant in any of them.

There was a slight trend that show low-grade phyllodes tumor to be more commonly seen in older patients with a median age of 39.0 years and a mean age of 35.5 years (range 14 to 63 years), compared to patients with fibroadenoma who had a median age of 24.5 years and a mean age of 27.0 years (range 15 to 49 years).

There was a slight trend for faster growth with GDNF at the later time point for UMSCC22B cells but the difference did not reach statistical significance.

Some studies also indicate a slight trend that older teachers more frequently select training programs related to digitalization ( Annemann et al., 2025 ; Rotermund et al., 2017 ).

Static magnetic stimulation, where the magnet is placed adjacent to the microtissue for the duration of the experiment, shows a slight trend to increase vascular formation in most samples that previously were unable to support vessel formation (Fig. 5b ).

We observed a slight trend for improved disease control rate in the PD-L1 <1% patient groups who were AE sig+ compared with AE sig– ( Figure S3 ).

RAD51 showed a weaker association in Kaplan–Meier analysis, with a slight trend toward poorer survival at higher expression levels (HR = 1.17, 95% CI: 0.97–1.41) (Fig. 4 A).

The distribution of CI ( Figure 3 B4 ) spanned both negative and positive values, with a slight trend of being centred around zero.

In Manchester, UK, climate injustice could be determined as more diverse communities, people living in rent, and poor quality housing make up for a greater heat risk, while for elderly and children only a slight trend is found [ 44 ].
