“showed a trend”

The first two large RCTs showed a trend towards a decrease in foetal metabolic acidosis (only being significant in the first one) and a significant decrease in the rate of operative delivery for foetal distress when using the STAN ® -method compared to the use of CTG alone ( Westgate et al. 1993 ; Amer-Wåhlin et al. 2001 ).

The heat-killed cells showed a trend of AUC glucose elevation at the higher dose ( Fig. 4B ).

• Both high (1000 nmol/kg) and low (100 nmol/kg) doses only showed a trend in functional improvement.

OS also showed a trend that favored continuous nivolumab.

Effects of the resident workshop Residents’ teaching effectiveness and their impact on students’ rotation experience showed a trend of increase after the workshop, but this did not reach statistical significance ( p = 0.35).

Our study first of all showed a trend for an increase in stiffness over time, which is not surprising.

Caribbean women showed a trend towards greater odds of functional limitations than White British women throughout adulthood, while African women demonstrated higher odds after early adulthood.

Spinach and clover showed a trend of increasing Cd from roots to the leaves, above-ground.

Plasma IL-12, IL-23, IL-27, and IL-35 Levels Were All Closely Associated with the Presence of CAP The clinical characteristics, including male gender, elderly, overweight, smoking, drinking, nondipper, T2DM, HLP, SAHS, hypoxemia, CRP, tHcy, and the IL-12 members, were used to perform univariate analysis, and the results showed that IL-12, IL-23, IL-27, IL-35, male gender, elderly, overweight, drinking, nondipper, T2DM, HLP, SAHS, hypoxemia, and tHcy showed a trend.

On the contrary, in the large nonrandomized registry, the Coronary Revascularization Demonstrating Outcome (CREDO)-Kyoto Registry Cohort-2 [ 43 ], prolonged thienopyridine therapy beyond 1 year did not reduce ischemic events, but showed a trend toward increased bleeding.

Han (2019) analyzed the temporal and spatial evolution characteristics of China’s marine fishery ecological efficiency from 2006 to 2015, the results showed that the average value of marine fishery eco-efficiency in China was at a moderate level and fluctuating downward, while the regional differences showed a trend of fluctuation and expansion [ 17 ].

Comparisons between the two groups showed a trend towards older age in patients with bone invasion.

In the neoadjuvant chemotherapy subgroup, the PFS and OS curves after 20 and 30 months respectively showed a trend towards gradual distinction favoring HIPEC, allowing the authors to conclude that more long-term follow-up is needed to confirm the impact of HIPEC in this population [ 35 ].

In our series, a high variability in antibodies titers at baseline was shown; however, most patients showing a protective titre against the tested agents showed a trend to maintain it.

For the inter-day reliability, all ICC values were higher than 0.8 and the 95% CI also showed a trend of (ICC+0.2; ICC−0.2), except for rotational range of the CP group (ICC = 0.53) with a wide 95% CI.

Compared to sham animals, animals receiving 15%, 30% and 45% erythrocyte transfusion showed a trend to increase in dry:wet ratio over sham, however these changes were not statistically significant ( Fig 6B ).

Survival analysis showed a trend toward a longer median progression‐free survival for patients with high SRD5A1 expression levels and high AR pathway activity scores.

The results from most studies showed a trend toward decreasing cell density (Table 4 ) and increasing cell variation with aging.

Compared with SQSTM1-NUP214, the binding of SQSTM1-NUP214 FGmut showed a trend toward lower binding across all genes but the difference was not statistically significant.

The results of this trial indirectly support the rationale of such an approach, as an unplanned analysis showed a trend in favour of the SF schedule when the results are reported by preserved ambulatory rate-collapsed categories.

Longitudinal samples showed a trend for type III collagen turnover to change over time in dcSSc.

3A ), they found that diet-induced obesity also showed a trend for increased stiffness, and that exercise augmented this further [ 36 ].

Conclusions Use of WeChat self-monitoring showed a trend of increasing medication compliance and decreasing ischemic endpoint event rate compared with traditional monitoring.

1e ), while the distal segment (−1550 bp to −1350 bp), segment 3, only showed a trend of reduction, but did not reach statistical significance (Fig. 1e ).

In TCGA, all the top 10 deleted genes displayed significantly reduced levels of expression, whereas seven out of the top ten amplified genes showed a trend of increase in expression (although not statistically significant) likely due to the small number of samples harboring gene amplifications in heterogenous pri-PCa cohort (Supplementary Fig. 11a ).
