“showed a trend”

In the present study, cell cycle regulation pathways showed a trend toward cell cycle progression in pNK cells during pregnancy.

Mechanisms of tissue damage Carriers of the ε4 allele exhibited lower WMH volume than non-carriers, but they also showed a trend toward more prominent hippocampal atrophy, which is an early focus of AD pathology [ 56 ].

In general, studies mostly showed a trend towards positive associations of cadmium exposure and DNA methylation.

We observed that exposure to Maneb, Diazinon and Fenarimol, decreased the total number of progeny (number of surviving adult progeny) by as much as 30% for Maneb and Diazinon ( p ≤ 0.05) while Fenarimol showed a trend towards decrease but did not reach significance ( Fig. 6A ).

Experiments with chromium ions showed a trend of enhancing this carbohydrate (above 48%) in variants with 1 and 5 mmol/L and then a slight decrease similar to the control level ( Figure 3(B) ).

Acute morphine administration changed insignificantly NADPH diaphorase activity and showed a trend to increase the number of NADPH diaphorase positive cells (G7 vs.

Conclusions In our experiments, RtH showed a trend to mitigate the lethal effects of radiation.

These findings are in line with our study, in which anosmic patients revealed statistically significant poorer vividness of mental representations and the hyposmic group showed a trend of reduced vividness of olfactory representations compared to healthy controls.

In another small PsA study ( n = 58), which assessed single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) at positions −238 (rs361525), −308 and −489 (rs80267959) of the TNF-α gene in response to TNFis, the −489A allele showed a trend of association with PsA response to etanercept (not significant).

In the present study, BoP only showed a trend to correlate with the microbiome (results were not statistically significant).

Within the group of MRSA carriers at the start of the study, household members with a higher number of CFU showed a trend of being more often a persistent nasal carrier, as shown in Fig 2 .

Middle-aged female apoE ko mice showed a trend towards increased neurogenesis in the hippocampus compared with wild-type mice.

Conclusions We showed a trend toward an association between preoperative hypocholesterolemia and poorer survival in NSCLC; however, it did not reach statistical significance.

73 It showed a trend in efficacy for endpoints such as fewer angina episodes, lowered nitroglycerin usage, improved exercise time, and improved functional class (as per the New York Heart Association Functional Classification) when compared with placebo.

Fas ligand on the other hand was comparably rarely expressed with 0.94 ± 0.69% in cells with mild degeneration and showed a trend to slightly higher expression in cells from severe degeneration samples (5.06 ± 4.12%).

As expected, estrogen showed a trend of BCL2 induction and progesterone significantly induced MYC expression ( Fig 7A ).

Direct measurements of proteasome activity in MIN6 cells showed a trend towards decreased activity after palmitate exposure ( Figure 2(d) ) and a marked reduction in activity after treatment with the synthetic proteasome inhibitor MG132 ( Figure 2(e) ).

The MLF also showed a trend towards a shorter time to pregnancy: an average of 10 weeks for women ≤35 ys and 13 weeks for all women.

SNP rs10757278 is in strong LD with rs10757272, which showed a trend toward association with IA in two GWASs ( 53 , 54 ), but not significantly associated with IA upon meta-analysis.

The results relating to health related QoL showed a trend towards improvement in a number of EQ-5D domains (mobility, usual activities, anxiety/depression) in the intervention group (see Table 6 ).

The MO-e2f3 showed a trend to suppress fabp3 expression without significance.

Further analysis of mortality causes showed a trend in greater reduction of pulmonary-related mortality but this also did not reach statistical significance.

The interim analysis of OS showed a trend in favor of ado- trastuzumab emtansine, but it did not reach a level of statistically significant benefit ( Wildiers et al., 2013 ).

Along the same line, ‘Unfolded Protein Response’ (UPR) showed a trend for enrichment ( Fig 3A ).

Comparing the percentage reduction of non-diabetic versus STZ-diabetic HDAd-LDLR treated mice revealed a significant impairment of the regression of CD68+ cells in STZ-diabetic mice; in non-diabetic mice CD68+ cells decreased by 77% versus a 57% decrease in STZ-diabetic mice (p<0.01) The percentage difference in plaque size regression between non-diabetic and STZ-diabetic mice also showed a trend to decrease less in the latter (36% vs. 51%, respectively).
