“showed a trend”

In our experience, VHL disease showed a trend in which the preoperative neurological status was not correlated with the surgical outcome, unlike sporadic spinal hemangioblastoma in the TR group.

Patients in the atorvastatin/IFNB-1b group were significantly younger, showed a trend towards higher disease activity at baseline, and had significantly larger volumes of Gd-enhancing lesions on T1-weighted images.

miR-451 and miR-497 showed a trend towards being significantly decreased, miR-31 showed a heterogenous expression pattern, and miR-19b, miR-29b and miR-142-3p were expressed at comparable level in clinical samples and bone.

The shear force curves showed a trend towards lower forces with the double upper bound but no statistically significant changes were found.

BSO also significantly increased TR activity in FaDu and SCC-25 cells and showed a trend toward increased TR activity in Cal-27 cells ( Figure 1C ).

In contrast to EEPCs, transplantation of EOCs from the control mice did not influence hepatocyte proliferation or their apoptosis, but RBP-J deficient EOCs showed a trend of increasing proliferation and decreasing apoptosis of hepatocytes ( Figure 6B , Figure S4 ).

Interestingly, at 24 h of reperfusion, even though Y-27632 showed a trend of further decrease in IS (32.72±4.59%) compared with TUDCA at 400 mg/Kg, which, however, did not reach statistical significance ( Fig.

The Shadow Type x Object Type reaction time interaction ( F (1,29) = 1.037, p = 0.317) was not only non-significant but in fact showed a trend in the opposite direction to that expected if shadows were ignored.

In doing so, we found effects of colour saturation only for liking, but results also showed a trend of colour saturation for typicality from a static perspective.

The GG genotype frequency was 18.1% for cases and 20.7% for controls, while allele frequencies showed a trend of decreased G allele frequency in cases (44.7%) compared to controls (47.1%).

The main effect of INST showed a trend in the predicted direction but was not significant, [ F (1, 19) = 1.72, MS e = 749.25, p = 0.20], and no significant interaction, [ F (1, 19) = 0.710, MS e = 105.7, p = 0.41].

All the treatment groups showed a trend of improvement in the microarchitectural properties of the trabecular bone, including higher bone volume fraction (BV/TV), trabecular number (Tb.N), and trabecular thickness (Tb.Th), but lower trabecular separation (Tb.Sp) than OVX.

These differences between the conditions mean that we cannot derive the role of surgery for TICH from results of the 13 published trials of surgery for spontaneous ICH but the STICH trial showed a trend towards better outcome with surgery for the group of spontaneous supratentorial ICH that are most like TICH: superficial hematomas with no intraventricular bleed [ 3 ].

Lower concentrations of dopamine also showed a trend towards modulation of both IL-6 in untreated MDM and IL-10 in LPS treated MDM, but these effects were not significant.

Our findings showed a trend of physical function improvement at the early stage (6 weeks) of acupressure intervention in spite of the worse condition of our participants when enrolled.

However, when the AX version of the CPT (subject responds to the target “X” when it is preceded by an “A” compared with the target preceded by other letters) was employed, children with autism showed a trend of benefiting less from the “A” cue, suggesting an abnormal phasic alerting function ( Pascualvaca et al. 1998 ).

When embryo grade (grade 3, grade 3 + 2, grade 2) was used as the dependent variable, whereas age (ys), PRL (ng/ml), estradiol levels the fifth day of rFSH administration (pg/ml) and survivin/ABL mRNA expression were used as independent variables, only estradiol levels on the fifth day of rFSH administration showed a trend for correlation to the embryo grade, however it did not reach statistical significance (p = 0.087) (Table 3 ).

Interestingly, our study revealed that ezrin expression correlated to higher tumor stage (p=0.050), and bronchioloalveolar portion of ADC showed a trend of ezrin negativity.

The overnight fasting blood glucose level was the only parameter which showed a trend to be lower in H-P/C-HF than in L-P/C-HF mice ( Table 2 ).

Our study only showed a trend in the number of cigarettes smoked in the house, whilst reported smoking around the child was not statistically significant at all.

In addition to var genes, other heterochromatic genes also showed a trend towards downregulation in transfected versus untransfected parasites, irrespective of the promoter used to drive h dhfr-gfp .

The expression level of 14 miRNAs showed a trend towards a higher expression in patients with a good response compared to patients with a poor response, however this trend was not statistically significant.

Emotional Abuse Recently, family-environmental factors such as abnormal intra-familial relationships, lack of emotional warmth towards the child, child maltreatment (physical/emotional), frequent arguments and fights between adults in the family, ambiguous communication patterns, parental separation/divorce and isolated family units, showed a trend towards an increasing risk for having a child with ADHD-related disorders, as reported previously in numerous studies.

Female mice also had disturbed glucose metabolism: the mice showed a trend toward elevated fasting glucose at 14 weeks, and a statistically significant elevation at 26 weeks of age.

Specifically, MTT activities of cells with malfunctioning mitochondria showed a trend for reduced activity even with comparable cell numbers. 9.
