“a slight trend”

Thus, we have further examined BMI as a trend1 influence in the V1.1 cohort and have identified a slight trend towards higher BMI in declining anti-RBD/S1.

There was a slight trend towards a higher MxA mRNA level in clinically stabilized NAb negative patients, but the mean MxA mRNA level did not significantly differ in patients irrespective of relapse status ( Fig 4 ).

Time-dependent associations with PHE growth After excluding patients with HS treatment, linear regression analysis adjusted for peak ICH volume revealed a slight trend towards a negative association of mannitol administration with edema evolution (i.e. reduced PHE development) shortly after initiation of mannitol therapy (PHE development between days 2–3 and days 4–6: b=-2.62, 95% CI -6.423-1.183, p = 0.176; ANOVA: corr.

There was a slight trend toward age and failure to use sequential compression device with increased risk for developing VTE, but it did not reach significance.

This, however, would completely change the outcome of the study (no effect on Q10 and only a slight trend towards decreasing B).

A slight trend towards reduced TDL was detected in these experiments, which, however, did not reach the level of significance in both groups (Kruskal-Wallis-test following Dunn’s post hoc -test; p = 0.17).

While hours of ABA did not significantly vary across racial/ethnic groups, estimated marginal means suggest a slight trend in which Hispanic youth received fewer hours per month than the other groups ( Table 3 in Supplementary Materials ).

Moreover, a slight trend toward shortening of the ECN-Tyr201 H-bond is observed in the presence of BTA.

reported no or a slight trend toward improvement in caregiver burden after involving caregivers in their CBT program.

In the sinusoids of the pericentral regions there was a slight trend to higher neutrophil numbers in the HFOV+ECLA group.

We observed a slight trend toward more similarity among cohabiting MZ pairs than DZ pairs ( Fig. 3 ), but as previously shown in the gut ( Turnbaugh et al. 2009 ), this difference was not statistically significant.

However, when the last year of analysis is considered in Figure 3 d, it is possible to perceive a slight trend change, with signs of recovery especially for the provinces located in the northern central part of the country.

One possibility is that there is an independent association between PA and cognition, but it was not seen in our cohort because there was a slight trend toward better educated individuals with healthier lifestyles (less midlife smoking and binge drinking) in our cohort.

The D * values are almost constant at a fixed temperature for each membrane, but there is a slight trend toward higher D * values with increasing r .

HHcy increased both basal and maximal OCR, from 49 ± 8 pmol/min in control cells to 90 ± 12 pmol/min in HHcy treated cell for basal OCR and 70 ± 10 pmol/min to 120 ± 9 pmol/min for maximal OCR, while the ATP-coupled OCR was not altered, although with a slight trend of increase (Fig. 1 C).

Accordingly, the EQ-VAS of our patients showed a slight trend towards increasing over time, suggesting that previous health status may be perceived better as time passes.

In NCD-fed Mig-6 AdKI mice, there was a slight trend toward smaller adipocyte size, but this difference was not statistically significant.

Furthermore, in a sub-sample of AD and LB dementia cases, there was a slight trend of a direct effect with tau PC 2 (temporal-limbic pattern) on cognitive progression.

There was no clear correlation between penetration depth and back-flow volume ( r = −0.2), although a slight trend towards decreased back flows at higher delivery depths could be observed (Fig. 5 ).

Our study highly indicates that AMAC had a better prognosis than typical ACC; and AMAC might have a slight trend of worse prognosis than ASCC.

A total of 29 studies (28%) used only remote sensing data, indicating a slight trend towards the use of remote sensors for grapevine disease identification in recent years.

A slight trend towards higher levels of these cell populations was seen in the subcutaneous tumours.

46 – 48 The mMCP4 −/− mice did not differ significantly from the controls at any 5-min interval, but a slight trend toward higher pain responses during the last 15 min of the formalin test was observed; at 45–50 min, they demonstrated 124.0 ± 17 s of pain behavior versus 69.5 ± 20 s for controls ( Figure 1(a) ).

The calculated Pugh’s ratios of 1.510 for Mg 3 AsBr 3 , 1.596 for Mg 3 SbBr 3 , and 1.597 for Mg 3 BiBr 3 suggest that all materials exhibit brittle characteristics, although the higher values indicate a slight trend toward increased ductility with increasing pnictogen size.

There was a slight trend for the sputum neutrophil count to decrease with SFC although the change was not significantly different from that seen with FP/M (mean difference in change in neutrophil differential count [SFC – FP/M] -9.4%; 95% CI -26.5%, 6.40%; p = 0.13; Table 2 and Figure 3 ).
