In studies of T cell activation to CMV peptides in vitro , there was a clear trend for enhanced activation of CD8 positive T cells from COVID-19 patients as compared with T cells from controls [ 66 – 68 ], but too few individuals were studied to demonstrate a statistical significance.
Introduction Over recent years, a clear trend towards the use of wearable technologies has emerged across many neurological conditions. 1 Digital outcomes allow objective, continuous, and precise quantification of disease progression. 2 The higher temporal resolution and real-world relevance of digital outcomes potentially provide significant advantages over conventional assessments, which are often limited to periodic in-clinic visits and subjective evaluations.
Conclusion MSD pose a persistent and growing health and economic challenge for WCA, with RA and OA showing a clear trend toward younger age groups.
The present study also indicated a clear trend that patients with postoperative HD had a lower survival rate, although the hazard ratios was not significantly different compared to patients without HD.
Non-structural carbohydrates between treatments did not show a clear trend over time or a specific response to treatments over years.
In the young adults and the adults, the medial condyle had lower rod volume density than the lateral condyle, suggesting a clear trend of microarchitectural changes during growth, so that the lateral trabeculae were more rod-like structures, whereas trabeculae in the medial condyle were more plate-like structures [1] ( Table 2 ).
There is a clear trend of aggregation for the distribution of Mn.
There was a clear trend of increasing sensitivity in the direction of the thick arrow in the [ , , ] subspace ( Figure 4 D), but no trend visible by eye along other directions of the nine-dimensional parameter space.
When the published results are grouped under these constraints, Acropora spp show a clear trend to respond with increased linear growth and reduced skeletal density to replete supply with N and P.
Although there is a clear trend between copy number and luciferase levels, as might be expected, this pattern is absent for clones with a smaller transgene copy number (<5).
Neither graph exhibits any evidence of a clear trend preceding the change in closing hours.
As for the LV, although systolic performance was unaltered there was a clear trend for unloading and impaired relaxation and filling, most likely due to ventricular interdependence.
It assumes that for the estimator to be effectively unbiased and to show the effect only of the intervention being evaluated, there must not be a time trend in the outcome variable, that is, the outcome variable cannot have a clear trend over time that can be confused with the results of the intervention.
As expected, a clear trend was seen for all three liquids: the compressive strength decreased with an increase in porosity. 4.
However, evidence for such trends is conflicting 13 – 15 , probably because (i) changing vegetation communities, (ii) changing N deposition rates, or (iii) alternating dry and wet conditions with peat formation over time override a clear trend of C/N with increasing decomposition 10 .
Even though the number of participants between groups was different in the current approach, a clear trend of viral exposure was observed (DPs in BL and follow-up 1 and RT in follow-up 2).
However, at least with regard to HB, a clear trend toward a better clinical outcome is apparent, if HB patients are switched to prophylaxis with EHL.
There is a clear trend toward increasing lifetime for both the fast and slow decay components at increased depths in the film.
Systemic thrombolysis, in contrast, demonstrated a clear trend toward faster administration over time.
Additionally, evaluation of preclinical studies did not note a clear trend for efficacy based on immunotherapeutic agent alone ( Figure 3 ), which suggests that other factors (timing, frequency, delivery medium) also strongly impact treatment outcome.
A clear trend emerges when examining the effect of alkyl chain length on antimicrobial activity.
There was a clear trend for increasing magnitudes of association with lowering childhood SEP.
Although the difference was not statistically significant, a clear trend towards an increased expression pattern was observed in the CIP group compared with the CTL group (Supplementary Fig. 3d , e ).
Root growth Allelopathic effects on root growth varied across needle physiological stages, with a clear trend to increasing negative effects according to the following order: green needle < senescent needle < needle litter (Figure 5 a,d).
Nonetheless, with increasing concentration, sucrose followed a clear trend as visibly observable in Figure 3 .
