“a slight trend”

A slight trend of reduction was also observed for T helper cells double positive for IL-4 and IL-17 (Fig. 5 C).

There was a slight trend towards an increase in the groups treated with vitamin C, aptamer, and Aptamin C compared to the control group (control: 0.33±0.07 g, vitamin C: 0.36±0.03 g, aptamer: 0.35±0.03 g, Aptamin C: 0.35±0.03 g), but this was not statistically significant.

The 2007 Cochrane meta-analysis showed a slight trend toward effective treatment using paromomycin, but the overall relative risks for decreased stool frequency and oocyte clearance were modest and not statistically significant. 25 Compared with randomized trials for nitazoxanide, paromomycin therapy had appreciably more disappointing and contradictory results.

With mature overall survival (OS) results pending, a slight trend favoring pembrolizumab was observed; in addition, pCR was significantly higher in TNBC patients receiving pembrolizumab plus neoadjuvant chemotherapy than among those receiving placebo—chemotherapy [ 17 ].

Our results do not offer support for this prediction: There was a slight trend for survival to decrease as CT max increased under warm as well as under cold‐acclimated conditions.

While CRT showed a slight trend toward greater nodal downstaging, SCRT offered comparable oncologic outcomes with fewer treatment-related complications and more options for surgical timing.

Only a slight trend of diagnosis × age on cortical thickness was found ( Table 2 ).

Including the less informative half did not improve prediction accuracy; in fact, it showed a slight trend toward reduced accuracy.

Brain, spleen, and heart tissues also showed a slight trend towards increase in DNA damage ( Figure 4—figure supplement 1 ).

The protein content remained under 0.4 g/100 g extract in distilled water and under 0.2 g/100 g extract obtained in sea water, with a slight trend to increase with medium, high temperatures, and time studied.

The results are largely invariant to the number of pre-vaccine years, with a slight trend towards decreasing impact as more years are added.

Despite this, the extent of angiographic disease was similar between groups as was the initial therapy although there was a slight trend towards medical therapy for those not participating in CR (Table 2 ).

Three out of seven microRNAs ( miR-7b , miR-22 and miR-199b ) display a slight trend to increase in ileum collected from APC Min/+ mice, while the others ( let-7e , miR-29b , miR-378 and miR-486 ) are significatively downregulated in cancerous lesions, thus indicating a closer association of these microRNAs to differentiation process rather than proliferation one ( Fig 4 ).

There is a slight trend toward more deliveries to white women than to black women over the 3-year period.

There was a slight trend toward higher (i.e., more patient-centred) scores among students who lived in villages but this was not statistically significant ( P = 0.071).

As in the IHC, WB measurements showed statistically significant higher expression of VEGF-A in the Med EtOH group treated with EGCG ( p = 0.03) and a slight trend in the Bin EtOH treated group in comparison to the EtOH groups.

Conclusion While the majority of laboratory mice are still housed in standard cages for testing in external apparatuses, a slight trend in the literature striving toward more naturalistic settings becomes apparent ( Vyssotski et al., 2002 ; Hess et al., 2008 ; Lewejohann et al., 2009 ; Mieske et al., 2021 ).

Asymptomatic carriers may exhibit significant thickening of the temporal RNFL compared to age-matched controls, with a slight trend towards inferior RNFL thickening in male carriers ( 21 ).

None of the performance parameters was significantly correlated with population size, although there was a slight trend to interdependence between fruit set, number of seeds and number of flowers.

However, at day 14 post-irradiation, despite a slight trend of increasing perfusion in irradiated limb, there was no significant difference between experimental groups (Fig. 1 g, h).

In the Choice Light condition (repeated here with either 10 or 20 second delays), a slight trend toward impairment did not reach significance, and post-hoc power analysis revealed that an n of 37 animals/group would have been required to detect a paired difference given the observed effect size.

Knocking down Pin1 didn’t have a strong effect on the accumulation of PF11 in dendritic spines, but a slight trend toward larger PF11 clusters was observed (data not shown).

Although we observed a slight trend, we did not show any statistically significant prognostic difference according to the sEGFR values when adjusting the sample for sex, age, and smoking habits.

Similarly, a slight trend exists for ANNs trained with the set of All Available Data when the tendons are compliant (i.e., Low stiffness) that disappears when the stiffness increases.

A slight trend toward lower perinatal mortality was observed in the insulin aspart group compared to the human insulin group (14/1000 versus 22/1000, respectively), but no statistical significance data was reported [LOE: 1-] .
