“a small trend”

The less thermophilic TaMTHFD showed only a small trend to have more substituted amino acids at high composite Z-score positions when compared with TtMTHFD and had a more significant trend when compared with AbMTHFD.

No statistically significant difference in visual outcomes was identified between 20-gauge compared to 23 combined with 25-gauge vitrectomies at any time point, although a small trend of 0.1 – 0.2 logMAR gains in visual acuity was seen in the 23/25-gauge group at each time point compared to 20 gauge.

When we measured GSH concentrations in prkn −/− murine brains using the HPLC method, we recorded a small trend for a rise in relative GSH levels (and lowering of GSSG; Fig. 4 d), as seen by the Tietze method above.

Results obtained did not show statistically significant changes for both Bnip3 mRNA and protein levels, although a small trend toward increased Bnip3 protein levels was visible in cachectic cancer patients ( Fig. 3A,C ).

This is not just a small trend, but mobile health (mHealth) has widened acceptance by the public.

The effect on coupling in PC12APP sw was limited at best ( p = 0.69), showing only a small trend for altered coupling, suggesting that OXPHOS was unaffected by the transfection.

While there were no significant changes, there was a small trend in decreasing tumour T-helper cells after GEM treatment.

Indeed, HR infants in the subsample seemed to show a small trend toward preferring the familiar trials over the novel ones at test.

There is a small trend for larger differences between numbers/letters in position mapping for symbols at the top of the item list.

No significant between-group differences for any adverse events were seen, although there was a small trend towards better tolerability in Group B.

aureus (Figure 2 A), a small trend of inhibition of cell growth in the presence of each compound individually is visible over the period of 24 h.

There is a small trend for children’s copying fidelity to increase with age with respect to shape (overall effect: β = 0.14, 89% PI (-0.42; 0.7), see S1 Table in S1 File for all values) but surprisingly a very minor decrease with respect to color (overall effect: F062 = -0.09, 89% PI (-0.61; 0.43)) [H4a, H4b].

Accounting for the CD4+ T-cell count association, no statistically significant difference could be found between non-diseased HIV patients with Leishmania antibodies and those without Leishmania antibodies in our CD4-matched case-control study, with a small trend toward higher levels in Leishmania antibody positive HIV patients (Figures 1 , 2 ).

Because of the IgG effect, however, we cannot conclude that inhibition of the Th2 response is completely protective in this model, since we do observe a small trend for increased elastance in anti-IL-4 treated mice compared to non-inflamed mice.

Despite baseline lipid ROS levels in untreated populations only showing a small trend towards decreasing with starting density, we also tested whether population growths could be enhanced in any of the three densities by inhibition of ferroptosis using Fer-1, finding a small tendency towards enhanced cellular growth upon inhibition of ferroptosis in the LD condition.

There was no significant benefit for progression free and overall survival in the RTCT arm respect to the control one, even though a small trend favoring RTCT was reported.

While participants found the technology usable and easily integrated into daily life, there was a small trend of reduced usage by the later stages of this study, which is not uncommon for digital health programs.

While there was a small trend to increased labelling of miRNAs dependent on their uracil content, there was no correlation between miRNA uracil content and labelling efficiency (Extended Data Fig. 2b ), suggesting that the main driver of labelling efficiency is RNA turnover.

All groups demonstrated a similar healing rate compared to those in the control group, with a small trend showing slightly faster healing in the treatment groups ( Figure 4 a,c ).

Measures of body satisfaction in lesbian and heterosexual women did not differ significantly, with similarities observed in mean self-rated attractiveness and comfort in a swimsuit , although there was a small trend for more heterosexual women than lesbian women to report hiding at least one aspect of their bodies during sex (52% vs. 44%), especially their stomach.

There was no significant group or sex difference in median cluster size [two-way ANOVA, group: F(1,8) = 4.36, p = 0.070; sex: F(1,8) = 0.0009, p = 0.976, Figure 4C ], although there was a small trend for smaller synapses in ELS + ET mice consistent with our distribution analysis.

We found that neither of these two baseline measurements changed significantly across days (both p > 0.1), although both had a small trend toward redder (see Discussion).

We do observe a small trend of the negative and positive difference in certain brain regions.
