“a slight trend”

Statin use showed a slight trend towards protection, especially in the first 30 days, but this was nonsignificant.

A higher dose of 80 mg/kg administered in two 40 mg/kg doses showed a slight trend towards prolonged survival (9±1.4 days), however, all animals still rejected before day-10.

In the analysis of cumulative antibiograms from our hospital, a slight trend of susceptibility decrease to nitrofuran derivatives was observed.

According to the indications in the literature and the results reported in Table 2 , a slight trend towards an increase in the energy gap can be observed when introducing the solvent effect for both titled molecules resulting in a lower reactivity in the aqueous phase.

75 copies in glucose), whereas the absolute abundance of Pxa1 showed only a slight trend towards higher numbers (424 vs. 279 copies; difference statistically not significant).

The jet probability decreases drastically for cone angles between 40–60°, with a slight trend of decreasing jet percentage for lower Alfvén Mach numbers.

There was no statistical difference between the validity score of the three different experience levels and primary roles, however a slight trend towards a higher validity was observed for more experienced observers ( Fig 4B ).

pinnata shoots showed a slight trend to be inversely correlated with S supply, the negative effect of increasing sulfate levels on Se accumulation was only 2–3-fold, much less pronounced than for B. juncea (Figures 1A,C ).

Looking at the individual lesion TBRs, we observed a slight trend towards higher TBRs in score comb 2 and 3 compared to score comb 1.

The effect of the 388G allele in these studies was largest in patients with at least one copy of the 521T>C variant allele, and there was a slight trend toward progressively increased clearance with each copy of the 388G allele, although clearance values for the 388AG and 388GG genotypes within each 521T>C genotype were overall similar. 7,11 Similarly, we found that for subjects with at least one variant 521T>C allele, those with the 388AG or 388GG genotype had increased clearance compared with 388AA, 15% and 13% increase from that of 388AA, respectively, with the heterozygous and homozygous variant subjects having similar clearance values ( Figure 3c ).

Unexpectedly, MCL1 showed a slight trend towards upregulation in p53+ cells; the densitometric quantification of the corresponding bands (of three independent assessments) revealed that MCL1 was elevated by 37% (vorinostat), 26% (entinostat) and 3% (tenovin-1).

When comparing patients on DAPT to patients without any antiplatelet therapy, we found a slight trend towards an increased bleeding incidence in DAPT patients, which did not reach statistical significance.

There is a slight trend that the maintenance dose decreases with increasing body weight.

Compound 1 did not produce statistically significant results in our experimental setting, although a slight trend to decrease in IκBα phosphorylation could be observed ( Figure 6A ).

Besides, we also detected a slight trend to a decrease in MHC class II expression on HD’s CD14 + cells stimulated with Mtb -Ag in the presence of PGE2 (Fig. 2 E).

Similarly, a slight trend towards an increased association with CRC was observed in both female (OR 1.11; 95% CI 0.97 to 1.26) and male (OR 1.12; 95% CI 0.98 to 1.28) patients with psoriasis.

Although a slight trend toward a reduced LK compartment was observed ( Figure 4C ), no significant alterations were noted with respect to CD34+ CD16/32- CMPs (common myeloid progenitors), CD34+ CD16/32+ GMPs (granulocyte-monocyte progenitors) and CD34- CD16/32- MEPs (megakaryocyte-erythroid progenitors) ( Figure 4D ).

While not statistically significant, a slight trend suggests higher weight and BMI in the highest NBDQ quartile.

Past 30 ms, the group assigned to downward F0 shifts (top-right) exhibited a fairly stable production up to about 250 ms, followed by a slight trend downwards.

The tangent value of dielectric loss changes minimally on the whole and shows a slight trend of decreasing (Fig. 6 c).

At day 1, all bivalent antibodies were present in serum at similar concentrations (1000–3000 nM), comparable to a non-targeted control IgG (~2500 nM), with only a slight trend toward higher levels for weaker binding antibodies ( Figure 3A ).

There was a slight trend toward more numerous and less intense polycomb bodies, but the relevance of these minor alterations would require more detailed study.

However, at the moment we cannot count these results enough reliable: One more work has shown only a slight trend to this direction [ 107 ], and the last one did not find any correlation between current HLA-E allele and clinical outcome of HSC transplantation [ 108 ].

Constipation was the least improved IBS symptom during both approaches; additionally, only a slight trend was witnessed for improved diarrhoea in the low FODMAP group by Staudacher et al.

With regard to the IL-17A-producing cells, at 1 week, the effect of antibiotics was minimal, with a slight trend towards reduced numbers of Il17a -GFP + γδT cells and ILC3s in skin of mice treated with antibiotics ( Figures 6 A and 6B).
