“showed a trend”

1 According to Statistics Netherlands data, 2 from 1950 to 2021, the mortality caused by CVD among all causes showed a trend of initially rising and then slowly decreasing from 2000.

In contrast, pain, constipation and insomnia showed a trend for improvement.

In multivariate analysis for OS, lower NLR (HR 1.74, 95% CI 1.03–2.93; P = 0.039) was the independent favourable prognostic factor, and CRP-spike (HR 0.44, 95% CI 0.18–1.08; P = 0.072) showed a trend toward favourable prognosis (Supplemental Table 1a ).

29 The upward CUSUM chart for operative time showed a trend of gradual improvement after the first three cases, but a fluctuating pattern was observed up to the 19th case.

Soluble protein content showed a trend similar to that of chlorophyll content; it was lower in the wild type than in the transgenic lines under salt stress.

A brain computed tomography scan revealed an expansion of the infarction area in the left internal carotid artery with cerebral herniation (Figures 3A - 3B ), while a follow-up laboratory examination showed a trend toward improvement in complete blood counts and hemocoagulation panels.

Volunteers with the ABCC2 rs2273697 A/A genotype showed a trend to higher C max /DW compared to the G/A genotype ( p uv = 0.087, p mv = 0.048, β = 0.267, R 2 = 0.067) ( Table 4 ).

In the colon, ETEC challenges showed a trend of decreasing crypt depth, whereas oral Eh increased crypt depth in ETEC-challenged piglets ( Figures 4D, E ).

Although SRC.IDO_miR142ts-treated mice showed a trend toward reduced engraftment, the difference was not significant ( Figure 6 F).

Anxiety symptoms showed a trend toward reduction, with a medium effect size, but without reaching significance ( P =.07).

The heat changes showed a trend of increasing first and then decreasing steadily.

MRI showed a trend to increased sensitivity when compared to SPECT perfusion scintigraphy in the detection of CTEPH (97% SPECT, 100% MRI) [ 37 ].

Except for that of Mg 2+ , the concentrations of the six ions showed a trend of a rapid increase in the initial stages, gradual decline in the middle stages, and stabilization in the later stages ( Figures 10 and 11 ).

Notably, the second H3N2 passage series showed a trend toward adaptation for the virus passaged 10 times through WT mice in terms of virus replication, though this was not to the same magnitude as the IFITM3 KO-passaged virus and was not statistically significant.

During storage, the peroxide values of all sample groups showed a trend of increasing first and then decreasing, which was consistent with the rule that peroxides were generated in large quantities and then partially degraded in different oxidation stages of oil ( 36 ).

Compared with before dredging, the CO 2 fluxes after dredging showed a trend of decreasing first and then increasing.

When the surcharge was large, the axial force showed a trend of initially increasing and then decreasing, resulting in negative friction resistance.

Chinese observers showed a trend similar to that of Japanese observers in terms of the healthiness and preference evaluation of the Asian or African skin type.

While not statistically significant, the glr1Δ/Δ mutant showed a trend of increased levels of ROS accumulation at 60 m of exposure to t-BHP, even though the glr1Δ/Δ mutant was not significantly more sensitive to oxidation in the 48 h halo assay ( Fig 5C ).

In the H69 tumor-bearing mouse model, all therapies showed a trend towards a reduced growth rate compared to the untreated tumors.

There was also no significant difference in the ability to induce lymphoproliferation between patient groups; however, the data showed a trend towards reduction in cells obtained from hrHPV-positive patients compared to HPV-negative patients (Proliferation Index respectively: 1.33 ± 0.07; 1.80 ± 0.21, p=0.1668) ( Figure 2C ).

Soil oxygen content under different treatments showed a trend of “gradual decline” throughout the reproductive period of maize ( Figure 6A ), and there was no significant difference in soil oxygen content between different treatments during the two periods of maize V6–VT and VT–R2 ( p > 0.05), which is mainly due to the fast growth of maize and enhanced soil respiration rate.

While the numbers of samples were small, this showed a trend towards the same differences in expression as shown in our single cell data (Supplementary Fig. 7).

The DMFT index showed a trend towards higher missing teeth scores in patients with severe periodontitis, though this association was not statistically significant.

Their study with professional Spanish endurance cyclists showed a trend toward a higher frequency of the XX genotype compared to controls, although this difference did not reach statistical significance.
