Collectively, these studies reveal a clear trend: cellulose modification for osmotic energy conversion has progressed from straightforward ionic surface grafting toward increasingly precise control of network architecture and nanofluidic asymmetry.
In the current context of global connectivity and with a clear trend toward the democratization of scientific tools, it can be expected that the distribution of social bioentrepreneurs will also move toward greater geographic parity.
This is the first meta-analysis to focus on the risks of PMRT with respect to each type of complication encountered with immediate implant-based breast reconstruction, and it provides a clear trend based on 15 well-controlled cohort studies that were published in the past 15 years, comprised of more than 8200 prosthetic reconstruction cases.
A clear trend can be seen in Fig. 1 e in which the orientation coherence length decreases with the initial collagen concentration, indicating that the cell orientations vary more rapidly with distance when the collagen coatings on the culture dishes are denser, resulting in the cells forming more swirling patterns overall.
In feature extraction and classification, a clear trend towards the increasing use of machine learning techniques, particularly deep learning, is evident.
Padded impacts show a clear trend of worsening bias with increasing gap size, while rigid impacts, which are sparser, show that gap conditions are generally worse than no gap (Fig.
Long-term outcomes have now been reported to show a clear trend toward improved patient and graft survival.
The results demonstrated a clear trend: pull‐out force increased with increasing material hardness (Figure 10c ), consistent with the expected mechanical behaviour of stiffer soft‐tissue analogues.
For biological DMARDs, a clear trend was not observed until 2004.
As the concentration of rsMICA increased, we noted a clear trend of increased NKG2D downregulation on NK92 cell surface (Fig.
A clear trend is observed: a decay in the HOMO population of the dimer system and an accumulation in the LUMO population, indicating a direct CT from the HOMO to the LUMO of the dimer.
For chlorine‐substituted phenols 2 – 4 , a clear trend in the substituent as a function of its position can also be seen.
In general, there is a clear trend that the higher the cluster ID, the higher the mortality.
Although discordant sites are observed all over the chromosomal positions, they are not uniformly distributed, but have a clear trend of aggregating at certain genomic locations.
The clusters exhibit a clear trend: as the duration of extreme heat increases, so does the mean customer outages.
The experimental values do not show a clear trend and are well distanced from the models.
The results showed a clear trend in the proportions of the two ecological categories along the taxonomic scale ( Figure 4 : class level; Supplementary Figure 3 : other taxonomic levels and Supplementary Table 3 ).
Even though some of our confidence intervals were wide, there was a clear trend in the estimates, indicating confounding by genetic factors as we have described.
The quantitative phase analysis revealed a clear trend: the fraction of α-Ti decreased with an increasing Ni content, while the Ti 2 Ni phase increased proportionally.
There was a clear trend in the diagnoses of patients who were independently managed by the CSP.
For all the schemes considered in this paper, there is a clear trend of the overhead ratio increasing as the number of vehicles rises.
The occupancy of most states exhibits a clear trend with temperature.
Surprisingly, we did not find a clear trend in either sucrose synthesis or the tested SUT gene transcript levels.
There was a clear trend: patients in the 10–14 or > 14 drug groups had more DRPs, whereas those in the < 5 or 5–9 drug groups had fewer DRPs.
When a clear trend was observed, the absorbance was measured at 489 nm by using a spectrophotometer.
