“showed a trend”

The adjusted mean HDL levels in patients with a combination of periodontitis (−) and bacterial burden (low, moderate, and high) and periodontitis (+) with the presence of bacterial species (low, moderate, and high) were decreased ( p for trend < 0.5), while TG levels in those groups showed a trend to increase ( p for trend < 0.5) as shown in Fig. 3 .

Moreover, the eligible population showed a trend to be younger than 50 years and to have fewer ductal carcinomas.

Although none of the biomarkers tested predicted response to sorafenib, patients with high s-c-KIT or low baseline hepatocyte growth factor concentration in the sorafenib cohort showed a trend towards enhanced benefit. 69 , 70 The ALICE-1 study looked at VEGF and VEGFR genotyping to predict outcomes with sorafenib and identified several polymorphisms (single nucleotide polymorphism [SNPs]) of VEGF that influenced PFS and OS. 71 The ALICE-2 study also showed SNPs of hypoxia-inducible factor-1α (HIF-1α) to be significant for PFS and OS.

Subgroup analyses showed a trend toward a significant reduction in SSB intake in participants in school-based interventions compared with control groups.

When compared to control, low concentration treatment (PS-NP-10) tends to gradually increase MBC with significant increase at day 28. Basal respiration and metabolic quotient (qCO 2 ) showed a trend of increase with increasing PS-NP application compared to control (Fig. 2 B).

Although we did not detect significant associations, the results showed a trend toward reduced mean BMI in heterozygous overweight/obese children than in homozygous wild type.

Finally, sense of agency showed a trend toward a negative correlation with the strength of the illusion as subjectively perceived by participants with PTSD and PTSD+DS.

Interestingly, Wwox and c- Myc transcripts showed a trend of inverse pattern of expression in Wwox- control mice (Fig. 7e ) suggesting that WWOX might negatively modulate c-Myc.

At the highest concentration of alcohol, 40%, the high-drinking mice showed a trend to higher rates of licking than low-drinking mice (482.3 licks/3.5 h for high-drinking mice; 278.5 licks/3.5 h for low-drinking mice, Tukey’s post hoc n.s.), though they were not significantly different.

The neutrophils showed a trend towards more lysis with monomeric IgA1 and IgA2 than with IgG, which had comparable efficacy to dimeric and secretory IgA.

According to the results of our evaluation of MM cases that excluded t(14;16)-positive cases and cases not evaluated for genetic/cytogenetic abnormalities, good responders to Bd therapy expressed more NCAM than did poor responders, and the differences in NCAM expression between the two groups showed a trend towards a difference.

10 μm pravastatin caused a significant increase in cPARP (p<0.001) compared to controls, which was prevented by co-treatment with 10 μM FPP, while 1 μM FPP showed a trend towards decreased PARP cleavage ( Fig 6D and 6E ).

Animals given dox alone showed a trend toward improvement in MWM and RAWM, but post hoc comparisons against pretreatment performance never reached significance.

Results Very high stimulation frequency (150 and 200 Hz) conditions showed a trend of having more decline in normalized stimulated force during fatigue test compared to a low stimulation frequency at 50 Hz.

Even though the increase of miR-134 directly after the TSST only showed a trend, close to significance, the post-hoc effect size calculation suggests larger effects in an increased sample size.

The EGSVM-based infrared thermal imaging system showed a trend of higher sensitivity, whereas contrast-enhanced CT showed a trend of higher specificity.

Second, the P100 latency showed a trend to increase during and directly after the stimulation, and decreased in the following post-tDCS sessions.

The bovine mammary epithelial cells showed a trend towards a decrease in cell proliferation as the concentration of LPS and incubation time increased.

Levels of IgM showed a trend of decreasing linearly with increased levels of ZEA, indicating that ZEA (3.2 mg/kg) had inhibitive effects on humoral immunity in piglets, consistent with the results that ZEA decreased levels of serum globulin, which indicated that ZEA may affect protein metabolisms. 4.5.

Patient cTfh also showed a trend for higher PD-1 expression than in the MemX5 − population, which did not reach significance due to higher intragroup variability ( Fig. 1D ).

Mice treated with MPTPp + C-DIM12 showed a trend toward protection against the loss of DOPAC and DA compared with the MPTPp + C.O. group, but this was not statistically significant.

hPH or fluoxetine treated group showed a trend of higher GPx levels in the hippocampus when compared to the control group.

13 The univariate analyses showed a trend of AF recurrence related to age, mitral surgery, cryoablation and LA biplane volume ( Table 3 ).

358 mg in 72 hours) showed a trend towards faster relief from dyspnea and significantly higher net fluid and weight losses.

The data showed a trend favouring the chiropractic group in terms of clinically-significant improvements in both NDI and DHI scores.
