However, in regions where HR crops are widely adopted, there is a clear trend toward monoculture and crop rotation and diversification are reduced [ 59 ].

The volcano plots and heatmap did not show a clear trend of discrete lipid metabolites in the three groups of mice (Fig. 9 F and G).

This heterogeneity is considered the main cause of the lack of a clear trend regarding the number of oral bacteria in the ACO group.

We discovered that the majority of modular robots do not have exteroceptive sensing capabilities and that in recent years there is a clear trend toward the robotics community incorporating proprioceptive and exteroceptive sensing into their new systems.

In the present study, the H-D relationship did not show a clear trend with such a large range variation of altitude (275–1250 m) at four sites.

A statistically significant confirmation of the Richter study was not possible, presumably due to small study power, but we found a clear trend towards higher false-positive rates under strictly standardized experimental conditions compared to pseudo-heterogenized ones.

However, a clear trend was observed with the A. niger 1988 conidia whereby the greatest spore clustering was observed on the anionic surfaces and the cationic surfaces following the use of the A. niger 1957 conidia after the attachment and retention assays, suggesting that the spore shape influenced the pattern on clustering.

A clear trend was observed with higher frequencies and treatment times generally correlated with higher yields of both phenolic and flavonoid compounds.

The absolute value of GLS had a significant positive linear correlation with LVEF at Month 4 ( r = 0.4649; P = 0.0224) and Month 6 ( r = 0.4625; P = 0.0231) and with LVESV at Month 6 ( r = −0.5246; P = 0.0106), while the association of PAS was overall less strong, but a clear trend was recognized ( Figure 4A–D , Supplementary data online , Table S1 ).

However, in the phase III randomized, double blind, multicentre CheckMate-459 trial, nivolumab failed to show statistical significance in OS benefit though there was a clear trend of improvement in OS for patients treated with nivolumab compared to sorafenib [ Table 1 ] [ 77 ] .

In contrast, there does not appear to be a clear trend in the values accepted for the other parameters.

In spite of these variances, the PDF patterns show a clear trend for increasing the dimension of the domains following the sequence: Pi < MPi < Bi.

The frequency distributions of the g-ratios indicated a clear trend for KYNA-infused ONs to show larger g-ratios, indicating a relative loss of myelin ( Fig. 3 A, C and E).

Contrarily, patients with hypermetabolism and BMI < 19.8 exhibited a clear trend of prolonged survival.

Although there was a clear trend towards further reduction of endoscopic scores in mice that received TIF-Gel-TAC, this was not significant (Fig. 4e ).

In our study, we did not find a statistically significant elevation in serum IGF-1 levels in the GH-treated group; however, there was a clear trend toward elevation in the treated group and we believe this likely represents a type-II error.

All of these indices indicated a clear trend in which the gut microbiota alpha diversity increased temporarily after exposure to C. albicans and returned to the pre-infection levels on day 12.

Unfortunately other authors demonstrate a clear trend toward worsening aesthetic outcomes over time [ 29 ].

The lack of a clear trend between job satisfaction and sociodemographic factors could be attributed to the fact that most opticians receive similar remuneration and service benefits regardless of age, gender, marital status, or the number of years in practice.

In many regions there was a clear trend for better agreement between rCPS estimates at higher injected doses.
