“a slight trend”

However, there was a slight trend towards decreasing post-vaccination PRPs with increasing age, with a point estimate of −0.28 percentiles per year (95%CI: −0.68, 0.11), i.e., not statistically different from 0.

These observations are in line with previous studies that only showed a slight trend for negative methylation-gene expression correlations 36 – 39 .

These results of p53 ubiquitination were consistent with the total protein level of p53, where a significant reduction of p53 was seen in Mdm2 f/+ - Emx1 -Cre- cultures but a slight trend toward elevation of p53 was seen in Mdm2 f/+ - Emx1 -Cre+ cultures after Tg treatments ( Fig 4D ).

Some studies showed a slight trend of higher mortality in the COT group with actual PaO 2 < 80 mmHg and in medical ICU settings.

A slight trend toward a higher relative risk of culling in more inbred animals was also found by Sewalem et al.

However, we observed a slight trend of increasing cell survival against STZ-induced toxicity when XMU-MP-1 was added at a lower dose (1 μM).

Indeed, enhanced AMPylation levels showed a slight trend toward lifespan extension of FIC-1(E274G); polyQ40-YFP animals ( Fig. 4 A ).

On the other hand, SSP5 would indicate a slight trend towards increasingly extreme drying conditions, e.g., -2.0 (Jan/Nov/Dec), where >-40% or lower from Near Normal boundary falls within the possible ‘’Severity’’ or ‘’Extreme severity’’ drying categories, possibly having less marked wet periods (e.g., + 0.2, ~+5% from average).

However, there was a slight trend in favour of the lower dose in the psychometric tests, which was not observed in the physiological tests [ 160 ].

We report three main results, which partially contrast what has been suggested by previous work: in our setting (i) the critical mass has no effect on cooperation; (ii) group size has a positive effect on cooperation; (iii) the most chosen option (played by about 50% of the subjects) is All Defection, followed by All Cooperation (about 10% of the subjects), whereas the rest have a slight trend to switch preferentially from defection to cooperation as the group size increases.

Although there was a slight trend towards more severe damage in males than females, there were no statistically significant differences between sexes or litters (Fig.

One could argue that there may have been a slight trend toward improved body weights and lower numbers of rib fractures in FTI-treated Lmna nHG/+ mice, but these differences did not achieve statistical significance.

In fact, there was a slight trend towards better results in patients who underwent weekend cycles.

When MGEs were split according to family (excluding integrons which are rare in the human gut microbiota 53 ), there was a slight trend for higher colocalization of defense genes with ICEs/IMEs irrespective of the environment (Fig. 4b , Methods), in agreement with recent observations 52 .

Results There was a significant difference in RPE between weeks ( p = 0.015, W = 0.19) with a slight trend in decreasing RPE.

There was also a slight trend of a higher abundance in CTRL NMGs compared to DLB NMGs (fold change: 1.5), which was consistent with the quantitative comparison, but it did not pass the threshold for significance (adjusted p -value: 0.24). α-synuclein was found to be significantly more abundant in NMGs of DLB cases, while its abundance in all other sample groups was comparable ( Figure 6 B).

While significant differences between these values were not found, it could be observed a slight trend of increasing HB in the colonies fed with the HE.

A slight trend was observed in the CWRES versus concentration plot, which appeared to be driven by a small number of observations at higher concentrations where the model tended to underpredict the observed values (Figure 2 ).

Modules down‐regulated upon chronic LSD treatment do not show a clear pattern, with only a slight trend toward down‐regulation at 24h and 48h of the GTP‐binding module (Figure S2 ).

In terms of absolute numbers, Il13 −/− mice only exhibited a slight trend for increased neutrophils compared with controls on D2pi and D4pi ( Fig 2B ).

Although there was no significant correlation for healthy donors, we do not exclude the possibility that an association may have been identified with an increased cohort and indeed, our data did suggest a slight trend.

Health-related QoL After treatment initiation, IFN-treated patients showed a slight trend for deterioration of both general and HCV-specific HRQoL, measured using EuroQoL 5-dimension 5-level (EQ-5D-5L) and HCV patient-reported outcomes (HCV-PRO), respectively.

( 26 ) found a slight trend for priming patients by assessing their expectancies for side-effects vs. no assessment on subsequent nausea.

At the more mature stage, no significant changes were detected, although a slight trend toward decreased expression was observed.

There was a slight trend towards improvement in ChatGPT-4 performance throughout the test, as observed in the logistic regression curve.
