“showed a trend”

Emotional function and mastery showed a trend toward improvement in the meditation intervention group as opposed to the wait-list control group.

Interferon gamma (IFN-γ) also showed a trend toward increased levels in the lungs of Hhip +/- mice compared to Hhip +/+ mice after CS exposure (Additional file 1 : Figure S5C).

Characterization of adenomyosis In the study group ( n = 143), the diameters of the junctional zone increased with age and showed a trend of being larger in the posterior than in the anterior wall (Table 2 ).

miR-300-5p showed a trend towards upregulation in the MC group and downregulation in the HPM group, but without statistical significances ( P > 0.05), so it was excluded from further study.

Compared to a group of TRD patients treated naturalistically with antidepressant monotherapy, there was a 7.8 point greater decrease in the BDI-2 score in the combination treatment group, which was showed a trend level superiority favoring the combination group.

Immunohistochemical analysis of apoptosis (TUNEL analysis) and proliferation (Ki67) after treatment (on day 28) showed that the combination of AURKA siRNA and paclitaxel significantly increased the number of TUNEL-positive cells (P<0.05) and showed a trend for decreasing the number of Ki67-positive cells ( Fig. 6A–C ).

Interestingly, when we analysed sex differences, this association was significant in females, while in males it showed a trend towards statistical significance, suggesting the influence of sex differences on the TGF-β signaling.

35 Concerning self-perceived quality of life, preliminary findings on 22 patients with schizophrenia showed a trend of improvement 6 months after being included in foster home care program. 36 The only other study found on the treatment outcome of patients treated in foster home care was that of Linn et al. 33 However, this study did not test the quality of life of patients, only their social functioning.

Promoter-associated CpG sites of the imprinted Airn gene, encoding an antisense regulator of Igf2r , showed a trend towards demethylation, which might be hyperproliferation-associated, but this failed to reach statistical significance.

The results showed a trend toward better outcomes in the triweekly group, but the differences between the groups did not reach statistical significance.

Four other nearby (40–60kb away) but uncorrelated (r 2 with rs12418451 < 0.2) SNPs in this region also showed a trend of stronger effects in males than females, though none suggested a statistically significant difference (p-heterogeneity>0.05, Table 3b ).

These analyses showed a trend towards reduction of both the AbrB protein and mRNA levels in cells grown on M9G and M9S, which would be consistent with elevated RnaC/S1022 expression and increased abrB regulation ( Fig. 2 ).

Interestingly, STAT3 and IL-8 expression tended to inversely correlate in KRAS mutant samples, whereas KRAS wild-type samples showed a trend towards a positive correlation between STAT3 and IL-8 expression ( Supplementary Fig. 4c ).

Our study showed a trend of steeply increasing hip fracture incidence in women.

In a second cohort comprising 80 RA patients, [C5a] again showed strong positive correlation with risk allele number ( p < 0.001), and [C5] showed a trend to negative correlation that did not reach significance; as in healthy subjects ( Supplemental Fig. 1 ), [TCC] was not different between the groups (data not shown).

To the contrary, the results even showed a trend in the opposite direction, i.e., decreasing duration perception with growing aversion.

But again, there was no complete memory blockade since all animals still showed a trend towards spending more time in the previous target quadrant.

While gonadectomy did not alter neurogenesis compared to intact rats, testosterone replaced rats showed a trend to decreased cell proliferation compared gonadectomised rats that received no replacement.

Potential biomarkers of fatigue in plasma metabolites In the first steps of the TCA cycle, the levels of organic acids in the fatigued group showed a slight reduction in comparison with those in the control group (citrate decreased by 12.1%, cis -aconitate by 7.7%, and isocitrate by 4.5%), while a subset of metabolites in the TCA cycle showed a trend toward overcompensation (2-oxoglutarate increased by 11.2%, succinate by 15.7%, fumarate by 27.0%, and malate by 24.6%) ( Fig. 5 ).

They also showed a trend that individuals with MCI have higher levels of CRP compared to cognitively normal [ 23 ].

Control mice receiving antibiotic showed a trend toward reduced morbidity compared to control mice receiving PBS.

Treatment with individual LC n-3 PUFA and AA showed a trend toward an increase in the mRNA expression of PPAR-γ; however, the effect was not statistically significant.

Here, we report achieving a similar degree of sensitivity and specificity with our new sandwich immunoassay, but the signals in two cohorts of AD and age-matched control CSF samples overlapped substantially, while mild cognitive impairment (MCI) subjects showed a trend toward having slightly higher levels.

Contact affiliation showed a trend toward a significant correlation with female prolactin levels in each study.

Colonies showed a trend for fewer workers and males, no queen production, reduced number of wax pots, and reduced colony weight compared to controls.
