“a small trend”

Indeed, there was a small trend in the opposite direction in this more slowly evolving tumour type [ 133 ].

Additionally, in line with the interaction plots ( Figure 4 ), both intervention and control groups did not show gender difference in changes of ABC subscales (all P >.05), although some subscales showed a small trend for higher score changes in girls.

Delayed Graft Function (DGF) Our primary marginal-matched analysis revealed a small trend for a lower DGF-rate of 9.2% in the HMP group versus 16.1% in the SCS group ( Table 4 ); however, the difference did not reach statistical significance (mean difference: −6.9 [−14.1; 0.4], p = 0.063).

In the same vein, it would be interesting to investigate possible moderators of the effectiveness of daily feedback interventions as dropout analysis yielded a small trend that more self-efficacious students were more likely to cancel participation in the study.

By 24 h of treatment, none of the toll genes showed significant changes in expression, despite a small trend for upregulation of multiple toll genes ( Figures 5G, H ).

As shown in Figure 9B , a small trend toward poorer performance with worse neural health conditions (8.57 dB for healthy conditions, 8.76 dB for moderate degeneration, and 9.63 dB for severe degeneration) is not significant compared to the clinical data obtained by Litvak et al.

However, there was a small trend towards increased small airway smooth muscle thickness following third-hand e-vapour exposure ( Figure 2 a). 3.4.

A small trend could be observed that the group with combined feedback had a larger reduction of arm elevation in most of the parameters, both during intervention and post-intervention, compared to baseline ( Table 2 ).

The basic GOF plots in plasma ( Figure S2 ) indicate that the model describes the observed data accurately, with only a small trend in conditional weighted residuals (CWRES) versus population-predicted concentrations.

7 A computed tomography–based study, performed 6 months after surgery, showed no significant difference in the scapular position between the operative side and nonoperative side, but a small trend toward scapular retraction was observed. 8 The α angle (i.e., angle between the tangent to the posterior surface of the scapula and the anterior-posterior axis) of the affected side increased from a mean of 49° to 52° ( Fig 1 ). 8 Carbone et al. 9 showed the development of scapular dyskinesis 20 months after the Latarjet procedure, with associated lower functional scores (Rowe score, 82 vs 90 for dyskinesis vs no dyskinesis [ P = .047]; Subjective Shoulder Value, 81 vs 90 [ P = .046]).

However, if leukocyte depletion had been of great importance, one would have expected at least a small trend to be documented with this data set of 339 dogs.

There was a small trend for increased fluorescent intensity following anti-λR treatment of RSV-infected HAE that did not reach statistical significance.

Also, there was a small trend toward improvement in physical function demonstrated post-intervention.

If anything, there was a small trend toward higher success with a higher proportion of TOLAC.

28 There appears to be a small trend toward using wearables as an important step toward improving behaviors that will eventually result in improved health status.

In comparison, longitudinal research by Spence et al [ 14 , 56 ] analyzing cardiac adaptation in a small group of untrained young men undergoing either resistance or endurance training for 24 weeks showed a small trend toward biventricular eccentric remodeling in strength athletes.

placebo, there were no significant changes on the MMSE scores.[ 86 ] Although there was a small trend to worsen cognitive function with antidepressants, the impact on cognition was not significant.

However, it is worth noting that we detected a small trend toward a lower HLA-DPB*0401 frequency in SoJRA patients (28%) as compared with healthy control individuals (35%), which is consistent with a previous report [ 6 ] that suggested a possible protective role for this particular HLA allele in SoJRA.

lactis LKM512 and arginine-treated mice and vehicle-treated mice showed progressively improved performance by repeating reversal tasks, with a small trend that Bifidobacterium animalis subsp. lactis LKM512 and arginine-treated mice showed better learning performance through reversal phases.

In the combined ICI groups we found a small trend to more de novo R-irAEs (~80% vs 93%), higher rates of reported myalgia, myositis and (mostly clinically irrelevant) CK elevation, but lower rates of tenosynovitis.

2013 ), we did not find a significantly higher age of onset of instrumental playing in patients with MD, even if there was a small trend in that direction.

A small trend of lower glycosylation was observed in plasma (Fig. 2 C).

The orientation selectivity was not different between the two groups (p = 0.12, Wilcoxon ranksum test), although there was a small trend towards co-tuned inputs being more selective.

We find a small trend towards larger cross-individual correlations for genes with smaller distance between the most statistically significant eQTL and the TSS (Fig. 2c and Extended Data Fig. 8 ), which aligns with previous findings that current sequence-to-expression models capture gene expression determinants in promoters more accurately than distal enhancers 16 .

While all treatments demonstrated a small trend to lower COX-2 protein levels, no significant differences were observed ( p = N.S., Figure 7 A).
