“an expected trend”

Through measurements of relative telomere lengths in cells in which RHAU was knocked down by siRNA, we found an expected trend of telomere reduction up until 7 days post-transfection when compared with control cells.

Thus, an expected trend could be that modularity emerges in the network, even with the possibility that it is transient.

Due to biological mechanisms, a decrease of physical activity with age is an expected trend ( Sallis, 2000 ).

When subdivided into burn depth classification, an expected trend of increasing length of stay (LOS) is seen with increasing burn severity.

This is an expected trend as radioresistant cells and tissues generally have smaller α/β ratio and show increased RBE values for high-LET radiation [ 30 , 31 ].

This was an expected trend since at low copy numbers the signal is more difficult to distinguish from noise, a characteristic not only of the extraction process, but also of the PCR.

Furthermore, the results showed an expected trend of increase in intertemporal decision making at retest suggesting that intertemporal decision making benefited from repeated task exposure.

While the Dex alone treated group (Ova Dex) did demonstrate an expected trend towards decreased cell counts (3.59±10.7×10 5 (n = 13)) compared to the Ova PBS control group, this was not statistically significant.

This is an expected trend.

With delayed miR-21 sensor, we could observe an expected trend, with most cells surviving in the Off state compare to the On state ( Fig. 6a and Supplementary Fig. 14 , delayed configuration).

The spatial distribution of the mapped cis -rSNPs follows an expected trend (Nica et al , 2011 ): high density of sites in 5′UTRs, gene bodies, and 3′UTRs, which rapidly decreases as a function of the distance from the gene in flanking regions.

This is an expected trend in countries that are under economic transition as we can learn from the history of other countries.

Goodness-of-fit plots showed an expected trend of model mis-specification at low concentrations due to censoring of data below the limit of quantification (Figure 3 ).

However, we observed an expected trend of association of cholesterol levels among the three stenosis groups in this subgroup where highest levels of TC were observed in the ≥70% stenosis group, intermediate in the 30–69% group, and lowest in the <30% group ( Table 1 ).

The polymeric carbon structures reveal an expected trend when comparing with the structural chemistry of the heavier congeners of group IV elements in Zintl phases (alkali or alkaline-earth silicides, germanides and stannides) 17 , 33 .

This is an expected trend as mobile technology continues to become increasingly integrated into daily life.

The plot shows an expected trend that can be described by a linear regression with an average slope of Λ t = d [log( d max 2 )]/ dt rg =28.5, as illustrated.

Computational efficiency Since fusion detection involves analysis of large sequencing data sets and complex analysis pipeline, computational efficiency is an important benchmark, especially for projects involving deep sequencing and large sample size, an expected trend in the field.

The results confirm an expected trend of increasing recall (i.e., fewer false negatives) and decreasing in precision (i.e., more false positives) with greater population density 30 .

The effect was more pronounced for blended batches containing 50 % treated concrete, again an expected trend.

This lower correlation followed an expected trend for the mixed subscale symptoms such that they correlated less strongly with the total K-BDRS score.

Both show an expected trend.

The continuous curves are polynomial fit to the experimental points and may only be used to suggest an expected trend.

32 There was a general trend towards fewer falls in both intervention and control homes postintervention; this is an expected trend seen in other falls trials.

That p(correct) decreases more rapidly for fast intervals is an expected trend because the temporal window for a correct response is narrower for short intervals.
