“showed a trend”

The results of the follow-up of HIV-related lung cancer patients were compiled and log-rank test was applied, and the results showed that there was no significant difference in overall survival (OS) between the high and low CTSG protein expression groups, but the Kaplan-Meier survival curves plotted showed a trend of longer OS in the group with high expression of CTSG protein, which is consistent with the Kaplan-Meier survival curve of the impact of CTSG on the survival of non-small cell lung cancer patients in the database, and the expression of CTSG protein may also be a possible predictor of prognosis of patients with simple lung cancers as well as those with HIV-related lung cancers.

Surprisingly, we found that as nursing students’ anxiety levels increased before and after internship, their TI showed a trend of first increasing and then decreasing.

As shown in Figure 6 C, the DEGs that were down-regulated in the CG showed a trend of up-regulation in the IG.

With ARNT as the reference between groups, we showed a trend of lower expression of STMN1 in the oAβ group compared to the control and statistically significantly lower STMN1 expression in the mAβ group compared to the control ( Fig. 3F , statistics in Fig.

6 , CD8Cre-CD27fl mice showed a trend of increased production of IFN-γ, TNF-α, and Granzyme B.

In several studies, this technical advantage showed a trend towards better response rates at the first treatment as compared to standard non-occluded transarterial procedures, either with Lipiodol-based TACE (c-bTACE), drug-eluting microsphere TACE (DEM-bTACE) or radioembolisation [ 5 – 9 ].

In this study, CoronaVac® showed a trend to protect against hospitalization and severe cases, though without statistical significance.

As depicted in Figure 5C , the control group showed virtually no PA signal, whereas the ACFDG group showed a trend of initially increasing and subsequently decreasing PA signals, with maximum intensity at 24 h, indicating the peak accumulation of ACFDG in the periodontium.

Moreover, target therapy and immunotherapy showed a trend of occupying higher proportions (Fig. 1 D).

Overall, the CV data showed a trend of F1 < F2 < F3. 2.6.

In 2005, 2010, and 2015, the overall Gini coefficient of the development level of China’s national physical fitness showed a trend of first decline and then rising, the lowest in 2010 (0.0167), and 0.07 and 0.1 percentage points higher than that in 2005 and 2010 respectively.

In the middle to late stages of succession, the phylogenetic structure of the community showed a trend of dispersion, showing that competitive exclusion gradually becomes more prominent in clustering the community ( Webb, 2000 ; Webb et al., 2002 ).

Although iRBD groups showed a trend toward worsened gait during dual-task walking, a larger sample size is required to determine whether these changes would have statistical significance.

These studies indicated that iTBS showed a trend toward improvement of cognitive function.

Of note, HSCT-MSC showed a trend towards a greater residual proliferation in comparison to the other study groups, but this difference was not statistically significant (B-MSC 25.84% [IQR 16.82–39.30], GT-MSC 25.84% [IQR 16.82–39.30], and HSCT-MSC 42.23 [20.54–53.13], p = 0.13) ( Figure 3D ).

In male, the group with ∆RHR ≥5 increase showed a trend of higher DM risk compared to those with stable ∆RHR, although the statistical significance was not achieved.

While FGF19 concentrations showed a trend to increase in CG compared to NCG ( Table A3 and Figure 9 ), neither comparison resulted in statistical significance ( P > .05) within this relatively small patient cohort.

A prior study of diverticulitis epidemiology from 1980 to 2007 showed a trend shift in sex differences around age 50–59 years. 6 The younger trend shift in our study may reflect increasing prevalence of diverticular disease in younger patients. 3 , 4 Although the pathophysiology for these sex differences are unknown, possible explanations include sex differences in lifestyle and environmental factors associated with diverticulitis, including obesity, physical activity, and menopause. 3 , 7 , 8 Despite a higher prevalence of diverticulitis in women, women had lower odds of complications and admissions compared to men.

2 , 3 , 4 A report of a limited number of cases showed a trend toward lower postprocedure invasive mPG and higher rates of procedural success. 5 It is hypothesized that similar to the coronary and peripheral vascular application of Shockwave lithotripsy, fracking thick valvular calcium allows more expansion of valvuloplasty balloon and renders the calcified mitral leaflet tips pliable to prevent significant mitral regurgitation after the intervention.

The study also showed a trend not to use medical records when completing the DCs in deceased of advanced ages, but rather to choose a ‘most likely diagnosis’.

However, major bleeding was not significantly increased in patients with amyloidosis in our study, although it showed a trend toward increased bleeding tendency.

In grain, the preceding maize treatment showed a trend of increasing Ndff but decreasing Ndfs compared with the preceding rice treatment.

The correlation and agreement with FFR are significantly better for OCT-μFR than μQFR; (2) Using FFR ≤ 0.80 to define physiologically significant coronary stenosis, OCT-μFR showed a trend toward higher overall diagnostic performance over μQFR; (3) For vessels with suboptimal angiographic image quality or tandem lesions, OCT-μFR is superior to μQFR in identifying physiologically significant stenosis; (4) The diagnostic performance of OCT-μFR remains comparable in vessels with patients with prior MI or bifurcation lesions; (5) OCT-μFR has high usability in vessels with incomplete lesion coverage by OCT.

Education level showed a trend toward higher odds of psychological distress among caregivers with some college education or a college degree compared to those with a high school education or less.

In some isolated cases, the modal pattern on the skull surface showed a trend for an upshift (∼1/2 octave) in the observed natural frequencies for drained heads.
