“a clear trend”

Conclusions The large number of DAAs approved or pending approval signals a clear trend away from interferon as a first line therapy in the treatment of HCV.

Encouragingly, the studies presented here showed a clear trend toward more invasive coronary therapy even in cancer patients [ 3 , 11 , 25 , 26 , 27 , 28 ].

Although the differences are relatively small, a clear trend appears: the surface area decreases as the station distance increases from 5 m to 30 m, representing a reduction of nearly 20%.

On the other hand, a clear trend emerged for the Zn(II)-functionalized MSNs, regardless of pore size, as every TrzN:MSN biomaterial exhibited significantly lower activity than the corresponding nonfunctionalized TrzN:MSN biomaterial ( Figure 2 ).

In the liver and spleen, CD8 + MAIT demonstrated a clear trend, rising in LT1W and LT2W, peaking in LT3W, and declining in LT4W (Figure 4A,B ).

Additionally, there was a clear trend of increasing model scores from noncancer, to post-surgery, to pre-surgery samples ( Figures 2 G and 2H).

This analysis showed a clear trend where the ratio of DE compared with non-DE ciliome was lower at lower LOEUF (higher constraint) and increased at higher LOEUF (less constraint), providing further evidence that genes in the non-DE ciliome are under a greater level of selective pressure than genes in the DE ciliome.

Direct comparison on silica-treated samples showed a clear trend of reduced Ifng expression ( Fig 3C ).

However, when genes associated to cell junction or bicellular junction formation (GO:0030054, GO:0070830, and GO:0005911) were considered, we noticed a clear trend toward an induced gene response, including claudin-12, plakophilin 2, and FLRT3 (Figure 4 D).

Combined with a detailed case series analyses, it allowed us to visualize the patterns of risk and protective factors and showed a clear trend toward distinctive cognitive characteristics in both gifted groups.

Although analyses of the impact of cost on treatment preferences is not as robust as the full DCE, there is a clear trend that suggests that cost is important to some patients when evaluating treatment options.

From the analysis of the comparative data on accuracy and loss function values for each algorithm under three different data-distribution conditions, as presented in the above figures, a clear trend can be observed: the greater the degree of dispersion in the data distribution among clients, the more significant the impact on the training of the global model, resulting in a notable performance degradation in edge computing scenarios compared to an ideal environment.

For example, the U13 group showed a clear trend towards decreasing the space explored as the thirds progressed, while the U15 group despite decreasing from the 1st third to the 2nd, was kept constant to the 3rd third.

While the boron-containing molecules are air-stable in solution, they appear to dissociate in situ unless measured under a rigorously inert atmosphere. We observe a clear trend between the decreasing conductance of the intact compounds and Δχ and find that the decay in tunneling conductance with length extension is most rapid in molecules containing boronate ester groups.

Neonatal Outcomes The results show a clear trend toward lower birthweight in the newborns of the intervention groups, but no significant differences were found by Mackillop et al [ 38 ] (WQ) ( P =.18), Miremberg et al [ 41 ] (SQ) ( P =.878), or Yang et al [ 39 ] (MQ) ( P =.988).

However, a clear trend towards a lower proportion of venous thromboembolic history in the after group was observed (1.4% after vs. 6.2% before for DVT and 2.8% after vs. 4.3% before after for PE), suggesting that use restrictions have been partially applied in current practice.

The recombination lifetimes show a clear trend from DB < CDCA < BIAC01C < BIAC05Q < BIAC03L.

However, a clear trend in terms of aeroallergen, food allergen or animal allergen sensitization could not be observed.

The SIS treatment showed a clear trend of further improving SOM content across both years. 2.6.

There is a clear trend of coastal populations growing globally, with an estimated 230% increase (from 2000 to 2030) in the size of urban areas within the Low Elevation Coastal Zone (LECZ)—defined as “the contiguous area along the coast that is less than 10 meters above sea level”, and which accounts for only 2% of the planet’s total land area [ 3 , 4 ].

As shown in Figure 8 a, there is a clear trend of increasing the MTBE flux with an increase in temperature for all membranes.

The assay results showed a clear trend of increased ROS expression after re-polarization (Day 7) when compared to day 5 for all polarization types.

Consequently, the existing data did not show a clear trend regarding the effectiveness of proton irradiation under hypoxic conditions relative to photons and none of these studies accounted for the long-term interaction with the tumor microenvironment, the host immune system, or the therapeutic outcome.

All in all, there is a clear trend: Statements that affect the concerns of the children were given significantly higher point scores than statements that affect the parental concerns.

Although we had a limited number of samples, a clear trend could be observed towards an increased expression of EFEMP1 in glioblastoma samples at the time of progression (Fig. 6C ), suggesting that EFEMP1 could be used as a marker for tumor progression after TMZ treatment.
