“a possible trend”

This difference was notable for all three samples, as confirmed by Raman spectroscopy, and suggests a possible trend in the heavy metal sorption selectivity.

Although our data indicate a possible trend with wild-type Wnt1 showing the highest levels of protein on the surface and Wnt1 C93A/S224A having the lowest levels, none of these differences are statistically significant (Student's t-test p = 0.11 for the comparison of Wnt1 and Wnt1 C93A/S224A).

Although this difference was not statistically significant, it suggests a possible trend toward a higher prevalence in the MPI-positive subgroup.

However, the outcomes analyses did reveal a possible trend toward increased pain and reduced function in some participants who had chronic neck pain and were assigned to the hatha yoga class.

A comparison of needle gauge and total passes was completed using data from previously reported cases to establish a possible trend.

Septa prevalence did not differ significantly across age groups ( χ 2 = 9.084, p = 0.059); however, this borderline value suggests a possible trend toward an age‐related variation that did not reach statistical significance (Figure 4 ).

4 , our findings suggest a possible trend toward a relationship between hearing phenotypes and genotypes, in terms of both hearing levels and hearing loss onset; genetic variants with high impacts on the protein were associated with more severe hearing loss and earlier age of hearing loss onset.

Though the difference in overall survival was not statistically significant between the groups with high and low expression of the Th17 metagene (log-rank p -value > 0.05), a positive %∆MS of +10% indicates a possible trend that the strong expression of the Th17 metagene is associated with prolonged overall survival (Suppl.

Moreover, these same effects appear to be present in KO Slc1a1 -/- mice and are an equivalent magnitude; 2) Slc1a1 +/- mice display reduced thickness of DMPFC, particularly layer V, which is also consistent with neuroanatomical findings in schizophrenia; 3) Slc1a1 +/- mice exhibit a lower ratio of reduced to oxidized glutathione (GSH/GSSG) as well as a possible trend for increased oxidative DNA damage in the brain; 4) There appears to be compensatory or downstream effects in the brains of Slc1a1 +/- mice, that lead to significant changes in the expression of genes and pathways involved in synaptic and cognitive functions; 5) There are robust changes in the expr

To sum up, the evolving of game-based rehabilitation reveals a possible trend: more and more game-based rehabilitation systems are built using commodity hardware, such as tablets, Kinects, and Wii remotes most studies have focused on creating games from scratch, rather than adopting (already done and successful) designed-for-fun video games however, there is not enough games

We did find a relationship between poor OHRQoL and worse respiratory health status and a possible trend towards worse dental exam measures among those with severe COPD exacerbations.

While previous meta-analyses and RCTs report no consistent difference between absorbable and non-absorbable sutures [ 44 , 45 ], our data suggest a possible trend favoring absorbable sutures.

Moreover, and essential, this study outcomes prove a possible trend between overseas University students toward resilience and coping with current pandemic conditions—an important step toward a return to pre-pandemic living conditions.

The data showed a possible trend toward confirming our hypothesis despite the limited sample size.

Some form of oncological data has been reported only by eight studies[ 20 - 22 , 24 - 28 ] and, even though no differences have been reported in terms of disease free survival and overall survival in this systematic review, a recent meta-analysis highlighted a possible trend towards a lower 5 years overall survival for patients treated with a laparoscopic approach for ICC when compared to those operated by open approach[ 39 ].

This result may represent a possible trend of the acupuncture research in the future to motivate the potential of the mechanism of the body recovery in osteoarthritis of the knee or other diseases.

This difference approached statistical significance (Fisher’s exact test, p = 0.050), suggesting a possible trend toward lower technical success in sleeve gastrectomy-related fistulas.

The change from baseline to six months was borderline (p = 0.079), suggesting a possible trend had there been more data.

Thus, considering the two retained articles, we observed a putative difference in standardized mean difference with a possible trend toward a higher mean methylation level in patients with neuropathic and inflammatory pain, although without a clear statistical significance.

A greater percentage of GT individuals required surgery compared to GG individuals, suggesting a possible trend for extended rehabilitation.

In the first large retrospective study, there was a possible trend of inferior response and survival in dual mutants treated with lower intensity FLT3 inhibitor based regimens, particularly in the older AML population ( 61 ).

A weak positive association was observed between the loss of papilla height and the buccolingual width of the vertical bone defect (ρ = 0.178, p = 0.365), suggesting a possible trend toward greater papilla loss in cases with wider osseous dimensions.

However, the occurrence of new strokes exclusively in the MMD subgroup suggests a possible trend toward more aggressive disease in idiopathic cases, although statistical confirmation was limited by the small sample size.

Finally, we compared the proportion of nutrition and health claims recorded on the food products to the proportion of NHCs obtained in the 2012 study to estimate a possible trend in the use of NHCs.

Then, the functions estimateGLMTrendedDisp() and estimateGLMTagwiseDisp() were used to estimate genewise dispersion allowing a possible trend with average count size as recommended for experiments with multiple factors.
