“a clear trend”

16 found that the accuracy and reliability of arthroscopic percent area estimates on the femoral surfaces were generally poor, and there was a clear trend to poorer reliability with larger lesions.

A clear trend toward centralisation was observed, with Level 1 hospitals admitting the most severely injured patients.

Despite these limitations, we observed a clear trend of decreased Pb concentrations during FIR exposure, which may indicate a possible link to VGCC activation and calcium influx.

The main results are as follows: (1) a higher level of affinity and a lower level of unpleasantness for the stimuli used resulted in a stronger CPM effect; (2) significant differences were observed in the extreme categories (high and low) of both variables, whereas the ‘indifferent’ group did not show a clear trend; (3) within-subject analysis demonstrated that affinity for the CS had a clear impact on the CPM effect; (4) no correlations were found between the CPM effect and the additional variables, except for the extraversion variable with the CPM effect of the ischemia protocol, and CS duration variable with CPM effect in the cold water protocol; and (5) only the affinity variable explained the CPM effect in both protocols in the multiple linear regression analysis.

In Figure 6 b, a clear trend is visible in the G − peak profiles, evolving from a broad shape in M1 to a sharp form in S3, which indicates a continuous enrichment of semiconducting SWNTs through the separation process.

On correlation of abundance of RSVs with glucose level measurements, we found a clear trend of negative association of B. acidifaciens ( r = −0.44, q value = 0.14) and P. goldsteinii ( r = −0.41, q value = 0.14) in the group 3 animals with elevated glucose level.

5 a, both YPEDILDKHLQRVIL- and YPEDILDKHLQRV-based extensions show a clear trend of increasing rank differences during fine-tuning, demonstrating that our fine-tuning strategy can enrich “good” peptide binders and is thus more likely to generate peptides with higher affinity for β -catenin.

Interestingly, a previous study evaluating mean telomere length over age showed a clear trend for age‐related attrition in the substantia nigra of healthy controls (Hudson et al., 2011 ).

Dilated Cardiomyopathy End-stage dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) shows a clear trend toward elevated COL1 in the heart.

A clear trend was observed: as the severity of sarcopenia increased, RF csa and CS mean decreased, whereas RF mgv increased.

Fourteen compounds met the criteria for selective resistance in the ATRX mutants, including three different histone deacetylase (HDAC) inhibitors and two different aurora kinase inhibitors, where a clear trend towards relative resistance was identified for multiple compounds from both classes of agent ( Fig. 3 a, Fig.

A clear trend cannot be deciphered for the dependence of the parameters on drug content from the expected increase of φ 1 .

Overall, we found a clear trend in each of the food outlets, except in supermarkets and street markets.

A clear trend can be observed in both material systems.

Scatter plot analysis Age versus number of extracted teeth The scatter plot analysis of age versus the number of extracted teeth revealed a clear trend: as individuals age, the number of extracted teeth tends to increase.

Furthermore, our modeling suggests that enzyme inhibition is negligible under the employed experimental conditions, as the obtained enzyme activity rate constants (see Figure S6 ) do not exhibit a clear trend, except for minor deviations observed at high RNA blocker concentrations.

Japan), where there has been a recent introduction of improved sanitation methods, there has been a clear trend toward a lower rate of H. pylori infection.[ 13 ] Chen et al .[ 14 ] showed that the prevalence of H. pylori infection has been steadily declining in industrialized and emerging countries, which is probably a reflection of improved sanitary conditions, as well as widespread use of antibiotics.

While this increase was not statistically significant after correcting for multiple comparisons ( P = 0.0323), the data show a clear trend that at the very least indicates that the ADA response to AvFc did not undermine the drug efficacy in this model.

Our results show a clear trend of reducing IL-9 levels in spleen cell cultures collected from treated DCs (tDC and nDC) compared to the control group ( Fig 5 ).

A clear trend towards lower BV/TV in the apical and higher BV/TV in the coronal part is visible. 3.2.

Characteristics of immune microenvironment in thymoma As shown in Figure 1 , there was a clear trend that IMRS3 and the TREM2 hi signature increased with the increase in the WHO grades.

A clear trend between fibrosis grade and spleen response rate was observed for patients achieving a spleen response at Week 24 or at any time during the study, with response rates decreasing with increasing fibrosis grade ( Figure 1 B).

We can observe a clear trend that the score decreases with an increase in shared information among the datasets.

While no considerable difference in the distribution of scenario DVHs can be observed, the SDVHs present a clear trend of mean standard deviation reduction with the increase of sample size.

yellowstonensis showed a clear trend of decreasing relative abundance from TP1 to TP3, with an increase at TP4 ( Fig. 2D ).
