“a slight trend”

However, a slight trend was observed toward increased incidence among subjects with pelvis and hip index fractures ( Table 2 ).

There was a slight trend of higher EBV VL in children presenting with inflammation, with one patient displaying particularly elevated EBV VL in the context of their HIV co-infection.

The models of the full dataset with equal variance (estimate [full] = -0.02; 95% Confidence Interval (CI) [full] = -0.31, 0.26) and of the reduced dataset for which variance could be calculated (estimate [reduced] = -0.06, 95% CI [reduced] = -0.18, 0.06) both showed no significant effect of protein on offspring viability, although there was a slight trend towards reduced viability with high protein, particularly in the reduced dataset model ( Fig. 1 ).

other non-exercise-based interventions), there is a slight trend in favor of education, although it is not significant.

The analysis resulted in a distribution of data points devoid of clearly separated subgroups but indicated a slight trend of increased aliphatic indices and melting temperatures for llama-derived nanobodies ( Fig. 1B ); To reveal common signatures of enhanced protein stability within the nanobody fold, we performed a Global Sequence Signature (GSS) analysis [ 51 ] on a multiple sequence alignment (MSA) constructed from the amino acid sequences of the 78 nanobodies.

Finally, we performed a similar analysis to evaluate the associations of the analysed biomarkers with treatment response outcomes as reflected by the change in ASDAS scores over 1 year and the disease activity after 1 year of TNFi treatment, showing a slight trend towards improved ASDAS scores when biomarker levels were higher at baseline.

Finally, because the herbal preparation shows a slight trend toward lower efficacy [10] , one could argue that the specific pattern may reflect a flare rather than a primary mechanism.

A slight trend but no statistically significant improvement in performance was observed (Fig. 4 B).

The model showed a slight trend where, with the increase in precipitation from one plot to another, the tree's D b increased (Table A5 ).

Although a slight trend toward lower sufentanil consumption was noted in Group 1, this difference was not statistically significant.

However, despite being previously published to improve blood glucose in db/db mice [ 10 ], 0.15 % NEN in the current study did not affect blood glucose control or any of the parameters measured apart from a slight trend for mildly decreased gonadal fat pad mass and liver triglyceride content.

A slight trend toward reducing the weight of upper limb devices over the years was observed, but there is insufficient statistical evidence to support this claim.

The other three mutations to hydrophobic residues show a slight trend towards lower RMSF.

As shown in Table 1 , there is a slight trend towards less product in the supernatant at higher biomass concentrations.

Nevertheless, there is a slight trend that broad enhancers tend to be linked to target genes of significantly greater expression breadth (lower τ values) compared with narrow and intermediate enhancers ( fig. 3 b ).

For MLR methods there was a slight trend of decrease in mean empSE as the number of assessments increased, but for the SLR method, varying the number of assessments had broadly no impact.

The analysis of cytokine production showed that the T cells deriving from the AH were able to produce a cytokine panel that was similar to that found in the PB; however, there was a slight trend towards an increase in the frequency of CD161+IFN-ɣ+-producing T-helper cells among the CD3+CD8- T cells (4.8% 2.12 CI in PB vs. 7.4% 4.17 CI in AH; p = not significant).

Changes in growth rates Mussels collected and reintroduced in 2015 showed a slight trend for decreasing shell growth rates over time, consistent among species but not statistically significant in any of them.

A slight trend can also be described based on the bonding descriptors, namely the weakening of the Y → Sn interactions with the increasing number of phenyl substituents (WBI = 0.28, 0.25 and 0.23; H = −0.016, −0.012 and −0.009 for 1 O+ , 2 O+ and 3 O+ , respectively), however, these differences are less substantial than those observed for the dependency on the chalcogen centers.

However, the viability profiles indicate a slight trend, showing a lower drop in the viability on day 6 for increasing CSPR profiles ( Figure 4a ).

In male mice, the Hetero control group showed only a slight trend toward reduced movement compared to Wild controls, and KDS2010 treatment had no significant effect (Figure 3B ).

Studies, for example, have shown that rates of nonviolent victimization are relatively similar for males and females, a finding that has been shown to be robust and stable across time and space, with only a slight trend towards a greater proportion of female than male victims ( Rand, 2009 ).

A slight trend in the glassy modulus ( i.e. , the plateau value of storage modulus, G ′, at higher frequencies) was noticed whereby the modulus increased with increasing numbers of methoxy groups.

A higher adherence to this type of diet is observed in the region of Murcia and, on the contrary, a lower use of the diet is observed among the population of La Rioja, but this difference is not statically significant, it just marks a slight trend.

There is a slight trend toward over‐prediction in exposure for those mAbs with high AC‐SINS score (mAbs 26–28 in Tg32 mouse); however, these mAbs were still correctly categorized as high CL mAbs.
