“showed a trend”

Strain C showed a trend towards lower mean expression levels for the NMD targets than strain B, although these differences were not statistically significant.

A second study evaluating cat allergen exposure on lower and upper airways showed a trend in improvement in the primary endpoint of nasal symptoms score and significant benefit with nasal congestion during both allergen challenge and the recovery phase ( Perry et al 2004 ).

However, they showed a trend towards linkage.

Results: Before treatment, Pet-1 knockout mice showed a trend toward decreased V E at room air, 3 percent, and 7 percent CO 2 , with statistical significance at 5 percent CO 2 (p <0.05), and an identical V E only at 10 percent CO 2 .

Although per protocol analysis showed a trend in favor of this possibility, it was not significant.

ELISpot responses to peptides spanning the entire viral proteome evaluated in 314 individuals showed a trend indicating an inverse relationship between the similarity to the host proteome and the frequency of recognition.

IFN-g and IL-10 showed a trend toward decrease in the TDI offspring as compared to vehicle and DNCB offspring, although this did not achieve statistical significance.

As anticipated, LASA scores showed a trend towards more nausea and significantly greater hair loss for patients receiving high dose treatment.

The node positive patients (n = 59) showed a trend towards reduced overall survival and had borderline Multivariate survival analyses significantly reduced disease-free survival if their primary The multivariate analyses s tumours harboured TP53 alterations, whereas the node alterations as significant vari negative patients (n = 100) showed non-significant trends vival, whereas node status, disease-free survival if they had and b). ;elected node status and TP53 iables for predicting overall sur- TP53 alterations, and T-status TP53 ALTERATIONS IN BREAST CARCINOMA 545 ; .

However, the curves showed a trend towards a more aggressive course in p53-positive patients beginning 3-4 years after surgery.

Tumour size showed a trend only in terms of recurrence-free survival.

The trend in relative risk with increasing sunburn score was regular and statistically significant (P <0.01). Suntan The index of "usual degree of suntan" was assessed for the winter and for the summer months separately, and in each case showed a trend of increased risk over the three categories of deep tan, moderate tan, and mild or no tan.

With the exception of 5FU, all assay parameters showed a trend for lower assay cell survival (greater cell kill) in responders than in non- responders.

albicans cells, the RAW cells showed a trend similar to the results using S2 cells: at 1 hour a given macrophage-derived cell was 4 to 6-fold more likely to have phagocytosed at least one white cell than at least one opaque cell ( FIG. 4C ).

Controls that received the same dose of a closely related but inactive analogue, MCP-1Ala, developed similar swelling to that of untreated controls, but showed a trend towards a delayed onset.

Numbness and tingling only showed a trend to be higher in acupuncture.

All studies showed a trend toward a decrease in the dose after PMX-F (Figure 2b ).

In fact, this stratified analysis showed a trend to statistical significance between lower DFS in those patients with the presence of Bmi-1 in plasma in more advanced stages of the disease and the remainder.

The expression of iNOS and COX2 showed a trend towards a decrease although the difference was not significant (Fig. 7B ).

Other serological parameters showed a trend towards improvement as well.

Results from the Medical Outcomes Study Short Form–36 ( sf –36) showed a trend in the same direction, but did not reach significance ( Table III ).

Anatomy of saphenous arteries from normotensive and hypertensive rats The internal vessel circumference of arteries taken from both ACTH-treated rats and SHR showed a trend towards a decrease, compared with WKY, although only saphenous arteries from SHR exhibited hypertrophy of the smooth muscle cell layers (Figure 1 , Table 1 ).

Also, semi-quantitative analysis showed a trend towards a more intense HSP60 signal in the Cpn -infected group ( Cpn -group: 3.3 ± 0.5 v.s. control group: 2.8 ± 0.7, n.s.), although the difference was not statistically significant.

Stress-related gene functions showed a trend for over-representation amongst cluster IV genes, but just exceeded the threshold for significance after FDR-correction (Table 2 ).

ARNT SNPs and insulin secretion Based on the proposed role of ARNT in insulin secretion [ 3 ], we selected 4 SNPs that showed a trend to an association with type 2 diabetes or that had a minor allele frequency over 10% to test in two populations of nondiabetic European American individuals who had undergone detailed phenotyping of insulin sensitivity and secretion.
