In the Early Breast Cancer Trialists’ Collaborative Group (EBCTCG) meta-analysis, PR expression was not significantly predictive of tamoxifen treatment response in ER-negative breast cancer, although there was a slight trend, which failed to reach statistical significance [ 14 ].

Nintedanib's mechanism of action is downstream of TGFβ signaling, and while there was a slight trend to lower TGFβ1 with both nintedanib and formoterol, this was not significant (Table 2 ).

Despite a slight trend for elevated IFNA1 and IFNB1 mRNA expression at 16 h, levels failed to reach significant upregulation at 4, 16, and 24 h, when compared to mock‐exposed cultures (Fig 2B ).

Although malaria does not cluster on any specific region, there is a slight trend towards the fourth quadrant of the 1 × 2 factor map (Fig. 5 a) and the fourth and first quadrants of the 1 × 3 factor map (Fig. 5 b).

Although there was a slight trend towards better training status in individuals randomized to the exercise group than to the control group, both groups did not differ significantly: baseline peak VO 2 was 35.8 ± 3.7 mL/min/kg in the exercise group versus 29.9 ± 7.1 mL/min/kg in the no-intervention group ( p = ns).

Safety There was a slight trend in lower occurrence of fibrosis, with IRay subjects developing fibrosis in 13.6% after 12 months vs. 18.0% of the control group, but this did not achieve statistical significance ( P = 0.219).

No significant associations were observed for social support (either measured continuously or dichotomously) and GDM (Table 4 ), although a slight trend suggesting a protective effect of high levels of social support during pregnancy for GDM development was noted.

Intraperitoneal glucose tolerance tests revealed no obvious differences between the groups, although there was a slight trend toward reduced glucose excursions in the GLP-1 nonapeptide-treated mice.

There was a slight trend to better sensitivity when using modified DIVERT scale, especially in older age groups, but the specificity was the same or somewhat worse.

While the adjustable-loop group showed a slight trend toward better knee stability and extension in early follow-ups, these differences did not reach statistical significance at the two-year mark, refuting the hypothesis that device type significantly impacts long-term outcomes.

Despite the variation of biomarker expression with CB-5083 treatment, we found a slight trend towards reduced p62, LC3I/II, and TFEB levels (Fig. 6 ).

As illustrated in Figure 1 , the MEB condition showed a slight trend of earlier improvement compared to the HBS condition.

Another biomarker of oxidative stress resulting from peroxidation of PUFAs, 4-hydroxy-2-nonenal, also showed only a slight trend for increased abundance during the fasting+rest phase and otherwise remained within a normal diurnal physiological range ( S6A Fig ).

However, increased locomotor activity was observed in NEX (Cre/Cre) mice compared to C57BL/6J mice, with NEX (+/+) and NEX (+/Cre) mice showing a slight trend toward increased locomotor activity (Figure 1K ).

Corresponding values were 7% and 7% for higher unemployment rate, 19% and 20% of adults without a high school diploma, and 22% and 25% in the lowest quintile of household income, suggesting a slight trend towards higher socio-economic status among participants, a feature commonly encountered. 3.2.

However, a slight trend towards sharing with the scientific community has been observed with the introduction of new open sensor datasets.

Although there is a slight trend suggesting that the Mutant (GG) genotype has higher mean PPAR-alpha levels compared to the Wild (CC) and Hetero (CG) genotypes, this difference is not statistically significant.

A slight trend between the change in butyrate concentration and change in A1c was observed, only for the WBF-011 group ( online supplementary figure S5 ).

4 B left), we found that WM capacity for coloured squares did not seem to significantly benefit from longer encoding time ( F (1,11) = 3.72, p = .08, η p 2 = 0.25), despite a slight trend consistent with Experiment 1 and previous literature.

This study revealed that hospitalizations showed a slight trend from county hospitals to the THCs, but no obvious changes were observed in terms of outpatient care.
