“showed a trend”

What's more, serum NO level in severe cases showed a trend towards an increase compared to mild cases.

Patients with sufficient collateral status at the leptomeningeal convexity showed a trend for better outcomes, odds ratio 9.542 (1.812–50.245).

Differentially expressed genes involved in cellular movement and cell death and survival were downregulated, while cell cycle-associated genes showed a trend toward upregulation in both trisomies ( Supplementary Tables S8 and S9 ).

28 Although we confirmed that the preoperative Identification score was lower in the group with higher CT‐scores (Lund‐Mackay score >12), the improvement rates after 6 months were almost identical in both groups (+2 points) whereas, in the Minwegen study, the patients with Lund‐Mackay scores ≤7 showed a trend towards decreased values (‐0.82 points on the 12‐item Sniffin' Sticks identification test).

Finally, the presence of histological inflammation was not found to be associated with the occurrence of long term complications (urethral stricture, bladder neck contracture or recurrent adenoma) even after taking into account variation in the sizes of gland resected; rather, on multivariate analysis, presence of prostatic inflammation showed a trend towards a protective effect on incidence of bladder neck contracture (though not statistically significant).

Levels of both miR-204 and miR-375 showed a trend towards a positive correlation with the degree of islet purity although statistically not significant ( miR-204 Spearman R = 0.62, p = 0.14; miR-375 Spearman R = 0.68, p = 0.11).

95 A retrospective analysis of 45 RCC patients showed a trend toward increased PFS for patients with a C min ≥14.1 ng/mL of 13.3 vs. 3.9 months, P = 0.06. 96 Based on experience in transplant and pediatric patients, everolimus TDM seems feasible. 94 , 97 Although exposure–response relations are seen for everolimus in oncology, no formal PK‐target has been established yet.

25 Additionally, a recent report by Bond et al demonstrated that BMI did not differentially influence trough levels of adalimumab and IFX, but the investigators showed a trend towards a lower trough level in adalimumab‐treated patients with a BMI >30 kg/m 2 . 26 Thus, BMI seems to influence the response to adalimumab.

Administration of the probiotic showed a trend to improve the fecal consistency with decreases in the fecal score in both challenged and non-challenged animals (1.8 ± 0.13 for control vs . 1.4 ± 0.13 for probiotic; P = 0.051 for Days 1 to 3 PI).

Although not statistically significant, animals treated with rTgPI-1 alone showed a trend to diminished IgE antibodies.

While her symptoms showed a trend toward improvement following the initiation of treatment, the left upper limb pain that she experienced on elevation and abduction showed no improvement.

Correlation matrices calculated from global fMRI BOLD signal analysis showed a trend toward altered fMRI functional connectivity from S2 to other cortical areas.

Among women with different educational statuses, the two-week outpatient rate and annual inpatient rate were higher in the illiterate group than that in other groups; both rates also showed a trend to reduce with an increase in educational level.

Furthermore, we showed that the network activation for four of the networks we examined showed a trend for correlation with the displacement of the fiducial coils, which was only significant when assessed without correction for multiple comparisons.

39 Our results showed a trend toward a reduction in cardiovascular events in patients who received a statin, although it was not significant.

Although the head AIS showed no significant difference by age groups, it showed a trend towards higher scores in infants/toddlers and teenagers.

The percent change from baseline serum iPTH thereafter showed a trend to gradually decrease; it was still −30% or greater on day 3.

In contrast, AT of naive or IFN-γ −/− Th cells only showed a trend to increased wall thickness as compared with TCR-α −/− TAC mice ( Table 1 ).

When examining single items, analyses showed a trend of increase in diabetes empowerment.

Allogeneic HIP animals only showed a trend toward higher expression.

The results showed a trend suggesting patients with higher ACB and ADS total scores performed poorer in all cognitive tasks, but the impact of medication on cognition may be minimal.

Visual inspection of the smoothed scatterplots indicates the survival outcome domain showed a trend of an overall increase from 2000 to 2016 while the pain outcome domain showed an increase following a significant decrease in reporting prior to 2005.

AMLN-diet fed Lep ob /Lep ob mice showed a trend towards increased plasma ALT plasma (13%, Table 1 ) while AST levels showed a significant decrease (−31%, Table 1 ) compared to Lep ob /Lep ob mice fed LFD.

However, the inflammation-induced expression of p65 showed a trend of decreasing in the ovariectomized groups receiving increasing doses of P4 (Fig. 2B ).

Furthermore, IFNg and IDO, which are known to be dependent on IFNg stimulation, showed a trend to be increased at these timepoints.
