“a positive trend”

A positive trend was also observed for the mean values for almost all components of the EWGSOP2 steps, which was evident both at the end of the programme and persisted 12 weeks after the end of the programme.

Eighteen sites reported a positive trend exceeding 10 ng/L.

Longitudinal cortical network dynamics support shortening of EDTs Considering the number of rewarded lever pulls per session, we found that between the first and last days of the experiment three of the mice (M2, M3, and M6) increased the number of rewarded lever pulls while one additional mouse (M5) also had a positive trend (with pval of 0.13); one of the mice (M1) decreased its number of pulls per day and the remaining mouse did not have statistically significant changes ( Figure 4a ; Pearson correlation values provided in figure insets; see Methods).

The AIQ‐21 scores showed a positive trend with regard to the burden of disease in the intervention group only.

Although there was a positive trend, none of the egg counts obtained with any of the techniques can be reliably applied in order to infer the number of adult nematodes infecting the host ( F = 3.05, 2, 66 d.f., p = 0.054; Fig. 2 ), and counts in urine can, therefore, provide only guidance on the parasite intensity in wild boar.

More than one year in RCS showed a positive trend for higher interest levels in rural practice at baseline.

Since opposing results are already published, it is not surprising that the present sample showed no significance, but only a positive trend between BUA, SOS or stiffness-index and NSA.

However, the average hard coral mean effect size of ARC for the Northern, Center, and Southern regions were all positive thus supporting the mean effect size for ARC for the overall MC towards a positive trend (2005-2016; Fig. 5A ).

Although this group also exhibited a positive trend towards promoting cell proliferation and migration in the colony formation and Transwell assays, respectively, these effects did not reach statistical significance.

5C ), a proxy for addition of sediment-derived melts 42 , 68 , defining a positive trend.

In the present study, FPG, 2-h-PG, 2-h insulin, HOMA2 %S, and HOMA2 IR showed significant improvement, and changes in other factors showed a positive trend.

Although Lef-1 expression showed a positive trend in the minoxidil-treated group, no such trend was observed in the finasteride-treated group, and neither increase reached statistical significance.

The mean BLUPs of seed yield displayed a positive trend, indicating that genotypes with a higher number of favorable alleles generally produced greater yields, suggesting additive and complementary effects of favorable loci on yield performance.

Group P exhibited the highest increase in body weight, while other treatment groups also showed a positive trend in body weight gain, though they were not statistically significant.

This can therefore be regarded as a positive trend.

Semaglutide continued to exhibit a positive trend, with a coefficient of 27.3 (CI95%: [15.1, 39.6]).

However, they may show a positive trend with age, which may be a significant reason for older participants’ step length and step time being less affected by cell phones ( Spreng and Turner, 2019 ; Verissimo et al., 2022 ).

Preliminary results indicate a positive trend between target neutralisation of the IFNGS and reduction in disease activity in dermatomyositis or polymyositis patients, an observation that needs additional confirmation.

4.2.2 Dynamic evolution characteristics of coupling types From 2001 to 2020, the coupled development between urbanization and the eco-environment in the Chengdu-Chongqing urban agglomeration showed a positive trend, gradually transitioning from a state of coexistence between disorder and low stability to a state of coexistence between low and medium stability, and further to a state of coexistence between low, medium, and high stability.

If no trend or a positive trend in abundance is evidenced, candidate 2 is equivalent to candidate 1 .

Multivariate M gradient did not show a positive trend in the HomL M group of the Male Experiment (where large males were exposed to large females; see Fig 5A , Table 2 , S6 Fig ).

The overall results for completion time indicated a positive trend of improvement across all learning groups, evidenced by the downward slope of their trendlines.

Figure 10 shows the plot of cycles length versus average persistence of cycles of the corresponding length: despite some noise, a positive trend appears clearly.

Data showed a positive trend for both the observed couple and the overall number of males over the project years. 3.4.

In this regard, the increase in bike usage is a positive trend, which can be maintained after the pandemic, given sufficient investments in bike infrastructure and bike sharing systems.
