“a clear trend”

No association was found between FAF area and average logMAR BCVA ( p = 0.087); however, a clear trend was illustrated graphically in which a patient with a larger area of hyperautofluorescence tended to have worse vision.

However, often results for CD patients were not significant, probably due also to the low sample size, but a clear trend was present.

Further, our data demonstrate a clear trend toward reduced numbers of GLP-1-positive cells in HFD mice.

However, there seems to be a clear trend toward a decline in sperm quality in our society [ 8 ].

A clear trend of decreased expression of this gene was observed after 3 weeks of training, which persisted until the sample collection after 6 weeks, followed by an increase to initial values during the follow-up period, indicating a lasting effect (similar directional changes as FTH and FTL , although noted after 3 weeks of exercise). 3.3.

Although definitive protocols for combined therapy are still lacking, since the introduction of radium-223, there has been a clear trend toward the use of radionuclide metabolic therapy in the early stages of bone metastatic disease with curative intent, rather than in late stages only for pain palliation and after the failure of other therapeutic measures. 30 Other bone-targeting agents Bone-modifying agents are able to affect the biological activity of osteoclasts, osteoblasts, and osteocytes.

By contrast, the pattern of technical change in China’s west does not follow a clear trend, experiencing periods of decline after 2005 and then again after 2012.

There was also a clear trend in the A2UCOE-eGFP LV transduced cells giving a higher percentage of eGFP-positive colonies compared to PGK-eGFP in the case of BFU-E and CFU-E and EF1α-eGFP in the CFU-E lineage ( Figure 3C ).

Although statistical significance was not achieved ( p = 0.093), there is a clear trend suggesting higher concentrations of caproic acid (C6) in AG heterozygotes in the overdominant model.

Given the uncertainties, it was difficult to pin down an exact value for the FIP bias (ratio of coronal to photospheric abundances), but for R1, there is a clear trend indicating improvements in the solution as the FIP bias was increased.

In the case of GAS 1 samples, the skin thickness does not show a clear trend with the part thickness, as instead observed for GAS 2.

Despite our results did not show statistical significance, it should be noted that the positive expectation group shows a P -value equal to the statistical level of significance selected, therefore with a clear trend towards significance.

However, we did not observe a clear trend in positive and negative ion migration ( Figure S5 ).

We observed a clear trend where pseudotime ends in cluster 2, LAM, and cluster 3, MHC-II high.

41 A clear trend for the isolation of nanobiochar fractions with larger surface areas is achieved after centrifugation ( Figure 12 a).

We found that alike in RPE1 cells, the number of cells expressing UFBs was significantly increased in DMSO treated H3.3K27M compared to H3.3WT U251 cells, and there was a clear trend towards an increase in APH treated H3.3K27M cells ( Fig 4E ).

The hazard ratios for an association between the lipophilic index and total ischemic stroke did not indicate a clear trend across quintiles either ( Table 2 ).

The distribution of outbreaks has extended beyond traditional tropical boundaries, showing a clear trend of diffusion into temperate zones.

At that time, laboratory results were as follow: i) there was a clear trend of increase in alkaline phosphatase (ALP) level (720 IU/L in 2019 that recently had reached 1738 and 2340 IU/L), ii) the patient’s parathyroid hormone (PTH) was normal, iii) serum calcium concentration was 9.6 mg/dL, serum phosphate level at several times was 2 mg/dL and 1/2 mg/dL (range 2.5-4.5), serum sodium and potassium levels were 138 mEq/L and 4 mEq/L, respectively, creatinine was 2 mg/dL.

Comprehensive hourly comparison of basin temperature performance between CSS and DSS The temperature data for the basin over the course of the day shows a clear trend for both CSS and DSS systems, with temperatures rising in the morning, peaking in the early afternoon, and then declining toward evening, as shown in Fig. 7 .

A clear trend was observed across these samples: the C 12 and C 14 homologs produced well‐defined hexagonal mesostructures, supported by both experimental data and stability in simulations.

Although each ChIP-seq’s background is modeled by a unique combination of controls, a clear trend is that many controls are combined—approximately 26 on average.

This indicates a clear trend where increasing salt concentration results in a decreased growth rate for A. corniculatum .

Furthermore, there is a clear trend toward an overall delay in childbearing among young women in the coming period. 11 According to the National Bureau of Statistics, the age of first birth for Chinese women has gradually moved toward 30 and above over the past two decades, and delayed childbearing has become another important trend accompanying the declining marriage rate, fertility intentions, and fertility rates. 12 Social Influencing Factors 1.

We observed one individual with a clear trend; however, when running our models without this individual, we did not find results to differ and did not exclude this individual.
