“a clear trend”

It shows variation between cases, but a clear trend for an increasing mismatch between dose painting plans with higher dose levels is observed.

Cox proportional hazards models using the periodontally healthy dentate group as the referent population in unadjusted models demonstrate a clear trend and a gradient with increasing periodontal disease severity increasing the hazards ratios (HR) from 1.90 (95% confidence interval: 1.28–2.83) to 2.22 (1.44–3.41) and 4.66 (3.21–6.78) for edentulism.

However, a clear trend was not reported.

Although we observed no significant difference in the liver, there was a clear trend toward a decrease in phosphorylation levels of both AKT at the Ser473 site and insulin receptor substrate-1 (IRS1) at the Tyr612 site in WT-PM mice; however, these levels were increased in the CCR2-PM group ( Figure 5C ).

Vicker’s hardness test, which is a bulk method showed a clear trend of increase in hardness on going from base to deformed region, however, such a trend is not observed in nanoindentation.

Our data revealed a clear trend: reduced PER1 expression was associated with poor prognosis, while elevated PER1 expression correlated with improved overall survival ( Fig. 1 D).

Four of seven machines show a clear trend that offset increases with off‐isocenter distance.

A clear trend of increasing hospital stay duration with higher complexity scores was also observed; the median stay was 2 days for scores 1 and 2, 4 days for score 3, and 9 days for score 4 ( p < 0.001 for all).

Autoencoder feature extraction performance The autoencoder training loss curve in Figure 2 illustrates a clear trend of rapidly decreasing reconstruction loss, starting from an initial value of approximately 0.70 and sharply dropping to nearly 0.50 within the first two epochs.

Even though there was a clear trend towards a reduced revision rate in patients without division of the SGV and fundophrenicopexia when compared to those without division of the SGV and without fundophrenicopexia (1 group C vs. 7 group D, p = 0.075), it missed statistical significance.

There is a clear trend with BDO resulting in lower monomer conversions (when compared with HDO and ODO) for each of the pyridine diesters, shown in Fig. 1 .

A clear trend observed in all study groups; the average maximum valley height (Sv) was higher than corresponding average maximum peak height (Sp).

P7 striatum also showed a clear trend for decreased phospho-CREB ( Figure 6G ).

In the Worm Neuron dataset, higher k values led to more accurate and stable clustering, while in other datasets the effect was less consistent and did not follow a clear trend.

Meanwhile, a quantitative comparison of the full width at half maximum (FWHM) of the (111) peak reveals a clear trend: the Pt-loaded catalysts exhibit progressively broader peaks than the pristine CeO 2 support, following the order CeO 2 < Pt/CeO 2pre < Pt pre /CeO 2 < Pt pre /CeO 2pre .

Because the extensive metabolizer group has been broadly defined as having “at least one” active allele, an analysis was performed to determine if a semi-quantitative dose effect could be observed amongst different allele combinations.( 13 , 15 ) After assigning a score of 1 for each fully active allele, 0.5 for alleles with decreased activity, and 0 for inactive alleles/deletions, a clear trend towards decreased metabolism with lower semi-quantitative dose was noted with regards to peak metoprolol concentration and AUC (see Table 3 ).

However, a clear trend between increasing coal rank and methane production rate could not be determined.

The higher binding energy agreed well with the values found for oxidized Pt (Supplementary Table 4 ), although a clear trend in the literature is missing.

A clear trend of higher P max with higher T cryst is noticeable, coming presumably from a higher degree of crystallinity as expected at higher temperatures, with 39 μC cm −2 for 700/30 and from the more columnar grain structure, which is known to show higher polarization values.

Therefore for imaging of hyperpolarized [1- 13 C]pyruvate, there is a clear trend to improve spatial coverage at the cost of minimizing the spectral information.

There is a clear trend that the voltage plateaus increase with current density.

These studies show a clear trend across several domains; there is a hesitation to accept and adopt VR despite the evidence that it can be a useful tool.

Although a minority of patients reported using opioids, anticonvulsants, and muscle relaxants, there was a clear trend in the treatment group toward a decrease in these agents as compared to baseline.

For the middle-distances ( Figure 2B ), changes in sex gap with rank position are similar; there is a clear trend toward a gradual expanding of the sex gap from 1st to 13th rank, after which the gap is relatively stable at ∼14% for higher ranks.

There is a clear trend: patients who develop SICD tend to have higher routine laboratory inflammation markers, slightly elevated troponin, and high NT-proBNP levels upon admission.
