“showed a trend”

However, both studies only showed a trend toward higher TANs with better prognosis of CRC patients without actual statistical significance. 3.3.

As shown in Figure 2 b, the intensity of WC diffraction peaks showed a trend of decreasing, then increasing, and then decreasing, with an increase in the sintering temperature.

The diversity of common bacteria showed a trend very similar to the whole microbiome ( Figures 5 B and S5 B).

consider that WNT2 showed a trend of higher expression in the young group, and WNT2 ligand and downstream canonical WNT signals were repressed in senescent human cells [ 44 , 45 ], which showed a similar trend in this work.

In the Chinese cohort ( Figure 2A ), patients treated with CT + S showed a trend toward better OS compared to those receiving CT + RT, although the difference was not statistically significant (HR = 0.75, 95% CI: 0.514-1.093, P = .134).

However, the HIS SYNC trial showed a trend towards a more significant reduction in QRS duration with HBP.

Except for the blank group, the skin thickness of each group showed a trend of increasing at first and then decreasing.

Although inflammatory markers (IL-6, hs-CRP, TNF-α) did not reach statistical significance, both groups showed a trend of improvement, which may be related to exercise promoting the release of anti-inflammatory mediators and/or reducing the production of pro-inflammatory mediators.

Notably, AEA levels showed a trend toward reduction as early as 3 months in both sexes, preceding CB 1 R upregulation (which start occurring at 6 months), suggesting that ligand depletion may initiate ECS dysregulation.

Lastly, along with the downregulation of PSGL1, the expression of Bcl-6, the master regulator of Tfh cell differentiation 74 , was also increased in the PD-1 + fraction in OT-II cells and showed a trend for an increase in endogenous CD4 + T cells in CD301b ΔIL-2 mice (Fig. 7k–n ), further suggesting that more CD4 + T cells are poised for Tfh differentiation in these mice.

Fiberglass composites showed a trend of reduced properties with increasing temperature during water sorption tests until saturation.

For example, Wang (2021) found no significant difference between BMG and LMG in success or complication rates (RR 1.03, 95% CI: 0.96–1.10) [ 13 ], while Abrate (2019) showed a trend favoring LMG (OR 1.65) without statistical significance [ 24 ].

During the period of 2009–2016, this balance showed a trend which first increased and then slowly decreased, but still maintained a high level (see Fig. 3 ).

Each treatment showed a trend of gradually increasing yields with increasing nitrogen application rates until 300 kg ha −1 , but decreased once the nitrogen supply reached 375 kg ha −1 .

Similarly, there were no significant differences in the number of acquisition trials among the groups ( p > 0.05, Figure 5B ), although the AD group showed a trend toward an increased number of acquisition trials compared to the sham group.

IL-1RAcP stainings of CSC and TAMs isolated from the T_SVZ and compared with matched T_Mass-derived cells showed a trend toward higher expression in the T_SVZ, and in the case of TAMs derived from GBM7, the increased expression of IL1RAcP in the T_SVZ was statistically significant ( Figure 5F right).

Among carriers of rs2228570 [FokI] genotypes (initiator codon variant), subjects homozygous for the major allele (GG) showed a trend for a decreased chair stand performance, suggesting that the minor allele could be the beneficial one for lower body strength.

Interestingly, under identical reaction conditions, the catalytic performance of butanol oxidation showed a trend of initially increasing and then decreasing with an increase in Pt particle size.

Table 3 shows the final multivariate models for determinants of MR progression to more than 2 grades, which included older age, female sex, and lower LVEF; the presence of AF showed a trend toward MR progression.

The previously found increase in the relative abundance of Akkermansia could not be confirmed in ABA rats ( Figure 4 c) but showed a trend toward an increase in LF rats compared with the controls ( Supplementary Figure S3c ).

Combined with ( Figure 2c ), the evolutionary trajectory of the whistleblowers’ behavior showed a trend of cyclical fluctuations when the government provided little reward to them for making a voice.

In our dataset, the possibility that largest reproductive aggregations occurs at night because of predation due to low light levels is also supported by the effects of lunar phase, which showed a trend of decreasing the size of reproductive aggregations during full moon), suggesting an optimization of the fish behaviour in the sense of “to see and not to be seen”.

The SHG signal colocalizing with CARS showed a trend towards higher values in triterpenoid-producing strains than in the reference ( Figure 7B ).

The BV of Sb in the east Taihu lake was the highest (1.49 ± 0.13 mg/kg) and showed a trend of gradual decrease along the river.

Pravastatin (OR 13.67) and lovastatin (OR 8.60) showed a trend toward lower myopathy risk when combined with colchicine, whereas atorvastatin (OR 25.73), rosuvastatin (OR 25.73), and simvastatin (OR 30.08) demonstrated similar risks when used with colchicine.
