“a slight trend”

Among the 454 contigs, there was a slight trend for increased coverage depth to result in higher coverage of the coding regions ( r 2 = 0.02, β = 0.015, P < 0.0001), although a substantial number of deeply covered contigs fail to cover complete coding regions of their A. thaliana ortholog (Fig. 6A ).

However, for self-injurious behaviour, there was a much stronger SES gradient for the 7–11 age group, with only a slight trend apparent for the 12–17 age group (χ 2 = 27.01, p -value < 0.0001, Figure 4 B).

Interestingly, there was also a slight trend for longer wing length in early arriving males (simple linear regression, p = 0.0002, F 1,87 = 15.4, R 2 = 0.14).

A significantly lower proportion of patients reported use of any PPI at all subsequent postoperative follow-ups, although a slight trend towards increasing use over time was noted (1-year: 4.8%, p < 0.001; 2-years: 19.4%, p = 0.002; 3-years: 12.5%, p < 0.001; 5-years: 18.8%, p = 0.063; Fig. 2 C).

A slight trend towards an increase in the indication of repeat biopsies was observed throughout the study period, increasing from 16.6% in 1994–2000 to 24% in 2014–2019 (P < 0.001).

There was also a slight trend towards declining frequencies of stillbirth and pre-mature delivery over the years (overall p-value < 0.001).

A slight trend toward higher T1ρ values was observed in the apical segments for both automated and manual processing ( P < 0.001).

Vice versa, there is a slight trend towards a more frequent occurrence of malignancies on the skin of the face (C43.4, C44.4, D03.4) in women than in men (30.4% vs. 25.7%, all p < 0.001).

These results indicate a slight trend toward improvement at 2 weeks, with a significant ( p < 0.001) enhancement observed after 4 weeks of Low-Peony PDRN formulation application. 2.9.

hindsii ), genetic distance has a slight trend (R 2 = 0.073) with geographic distance, showing minor evidence of isolation by distance ( p = 0.001).

Trial number was a significant negative predictor of reported valence, indicating a slight trend toward more negatively experienced valence over time ( b = −0.03, SE = 0.005, p < 0.001).

Subgroup Analysis Age stratification: Overall the age did not impact the outcome; however older patients aged > 60 years with positive ctDNA at baseline had a slight trend towards poor PFS compared to ctDNA negative patients [pHR = 1.62; 95%CI: 0.72–2.52, p < 0.001; I 2 = 71.28%], while younger patients (age ≤60 years) showed no difference ([pHR = 1.11; 95%CI: 0.39–1.84, p < 0.001; I 2 = 98.26%]; Supplementary Figure S3a ).

In line with our prediction, we saw that while in the true chase condition, socialness ratings increased with chase directness ( b = 0.471, p < .001), in the invisible chase condition, if anything, there was a slight trend in the opposite direction (socialness ratings decreased as directness increased; b = −0.146, p < .001; Supplementary Figure S3b ).

We recorded a slight trend towards fewer heterozygote delta F508 carriers (p=0·0022), more people with no delta F508 genes (p<0·0001), and a greater proportion of non-white patients with increasing level of deprivation (p<0·0001).

Only CpG −241 showed a slight trend with diabetes duration (p = 0.004).

Based on the graphical depiction, the addition of a spline knot at the 3-year mark demonstrated a slight trend towards increasing correctness of care up until the 3-year mark (OR 1.022, 95% CI 1.005 to 1.038, p=0.009), followed by decreasing correctness of care after that point (OR 0.978, 95% CI 0.970 to 0.986, p<0.001), with an improvement in model fit based on the QIC values ( table 4 ).

In multivariate analysis, male sex showed a slight trend towards increased transfusions (OR 1.6, p = 0.0116), as did age over 65 years (OR 1.6, p = 0.00676).

There was no significant dependence of first-spike latencies in the chronically deaf animals for IN stimulation ( p = 0.58) but a slight trend for CI stimulation ( p = 0.013, F = 2.8, d.f. = 6,254) stimulation.

A slight trend was observed indicating a stronger increase using longer incubation periods (DGJ: 1.9-fold (5 days) vs. 2.3-fold (14 days), P = 0.0173; BTZ: 2.1-fold (5 days) vs. 3.0-fold (14 days), P = 0.0921, unpaired two-sample t -test).

A median of four patients with DR Beijing strains per year was observed, with a slight trend of increase over the years (p = 0.0175, significance level of 5%) following the overall increase in DR isolates (p = 0.0421, significance level of 5%) during those years ( Fig. 1 ).

However, the AC estimates did not significantly differ between the two groups at T2 in any of the selected regions, albeit there was a slight trend in the RH_Cont_PFCl_3 (F (1,17) = 8.61, p = 0.02, uncorrected for multiple comparisons).

We also found that while there was only a slight trend towards a higher platelet count in smokers (Fig S3), the plateletcrit (Pct, i.e., total platelet mass) was significantly ( p = 0.02) elevated in smokers (bottom right panel, Fig. 5 ).

On the other hand, germline POL + lung cancers showed increased association between high TMB and FLT1 alterations, and a slight trend towards reduced TMB in cases with oncogenic driver mutations in EGFR , ERBB2 , and KRAS (FLT1, p=0.02; oncogenic driver mutations, p=0.28; Fisher’s exact tests).

There is a slight trend that younger strata are more likely to have genes that are female biased (univariate regression, P value = 0.024) (Fig. 2 ).

There was a slight trend toward studies with longer longitudinal periods having lower effect sizes than studies with shorter longitudinal periods ( Q = 5.07, p = 0.024, r = −0.046).
