“a slight trend”

There is a slight trend toward increase in the levels of GFAP and Iba1 in the blast group.

The RRT group also had patients with significantly higher rates of in-hospital arrests, ventricular tachycardia/fibrillation as their initial rhythm, bystander cardiopulmonary resuscitation and defibrillation, and a slight trend toward targeted temperature management administration ( Table 1 ).

Although there is a slight trend to activation of caspase 3/7 activity upon knock down of ESE-1 in both cell lines, the results were not statistically significant compared to the siScr control, indicating that ESE-1 KD does not induce apoptosis (Figure 4B ).

After neurodevelopment and maturation, the indices preserve almost constant values with a slight trend toward functional decline.

Nevertheless, no significant changes in HDL-C in HC- and HCO-fed groups, but a slight trend to decrease in HC-fed group compared to the control group, were appreciated.

3F through I ), we find that HAdV-F40 and F41 display a very similar behavior with small and mostly non-significant differences in all conditions, albeit showing a slight trend toward higher mobility for HAdV-F40 over F41.

However, analysing the Bland-Altman plot (Figure 1A ), a slight trend for the FloTracTMsystem to underestimate high CO values and to overestimate low CO values could be observed.

In addition, treatment with rIL-17A also increased the expression of S6K1 in CD8 + T cells from Il17a -/- mice, albeit the expression of PIK3ca and mTOR showed a slight trend of increase after the treatment, but the change was not statistically significant ( Fig 6B - D ).

Accordingly, we have examined RNAP efficiency and found a slight trend toward higher rates of transcriptional efficiency for two of the three mutations in codon 572 of rpoB.

Even though there was no statistically significant difference in the AF knowledge scores across the different age groups, there was a slight trend suggesting that older individuals had better AF knowledge scores than younger individuals [mean percentage score 60.9 (age group 21 to 30 years) versus mean percentage score 69.2 (age group 61 and above)].

As addition of mannosylation only showed a slight trend of enhancing the generated T-cell response to gp100.2L, the mannosylated VLPs were tested in a therapeutic tumour trial.

There was a slight trend for lower exposure in the upper arm and thigh compared with the abdomen.

There was a slight trend for the parenchymal volume in control mice to increase over time, and this was similar in the bleomycin treated mice.

We did not detect a significant difference in TNF- α levels when we assessed the effect of the genetic variants within the PTLD cohort however there was a slight trend for higher TNF- α levels in the variant groups ( Figure 3 ).

A slight trend was observed where a high-strength shock exhibited a slightly longer delay.

Therefore, the fact that our study did not thoroughly investigate executive function may mean that it underrecognized a slight trend of difference that emerged between the two main clusters.

Furthermore, a slight trend was observed in some parameters, such as a greater percentage of men, a greater number of patients aged < 60, patients with hemoglobin below 8 g/dL, and a greater number of patients classified as having adverse risk in the FC < −1 groups.

Yet, we observed a slight trend of decreasing BMI coefficients with decreasing BMI category.

We noticed a slight trend of higher total and linear plasmid numbers in pathogenic than in nonpathogenic isolates, but the difference was not significant, and results should be interpreted with caution due to limited sample size of nonpathogenic isolates.

Here, the distribution of votes indicated a slight trend towards favoring the infrequent name, i.e., the name that had been coupled with task-irrelevant negative information less often, though the distribution did not differ significantly from chance level, 41.6% ( N = 89), 95% CI = [31.3%; 51.8%], X 2 (1) = 2.53, p = .112, w = .169.

In the USA, a study of 624 patients with SII receiving different treatment regimens showed no conclusive (statistically significant) results regarding the aggressive use of fiberoptic bronchoscopy, although there seemed to be a slight trend toward shorter hospital stays in those who underwent more than one procedure during their hospital stays.

Although there may be a slight trend in decreasing residual variation at higher fitted values ( Fig.

We also detected a slight trend toward fewer patients with the TT genotype who were being treated with fewer than five antihypertensive drugs or who required no adjustment in the dosage of antihypertensive medication.

In fact, there was a slight trend towards reduced time in the “Agreement – arrival in neuroradiology” and “Door-to-groin” variables, bearing in mind that times from other hospitals are included in these.

Although all analyzed parameters did not reveal significant differences, patients with autism showed a slight trend towards a reduction for some of the assessed variables, as seen visually in Figure 2 .
