“a slight trend”

Following challenge, there appeared to be a slight trend of gradually increasing antiviral CD4 + T EMRA .

In the case of the acid pulp, the lignin content was 17.71 ± 1.94 (treatment 9), similar to that of the untreated fibers, with a slight trend to increase, possibly because the hemicelluloses and lignin were removed at a lower degree than with the alkali treatment.

in a recent systematic review, analyzed the association between GSTM1 and GSTT1 deletion and survival, concluding that most studies showed no effect or a slight trend towards a worse survival 13 .

While there was a slight trend for a positive correlation between total reservoir size and time of ART initiation after birth, these trends were not significant ( Figure 1 L).

Regarding disease severity class 3, TPRs of 60 and 74% could be shown, implying a slight trend towards better detection of Esca symptoms with higher disease severity.

Interestingly, we also find a slight trend that the WW pattern becomes more preferred, and the TT pattern less preferred, when we exclude more repeated activities with relatively shorter time intervals (and thus a smaller ξ ).

Compressive modulus testing of these BColl scaffolds revealed a slight trend toward reinforcement at lower boron loadings (Figure 3f ), followed by a drop‐off in modulus, likely to be related to the increased porosity of the higher loading scaffolds (Figure 3g ) – this increase was observed for the highest boron loading, and it is posited that it is due to a slight dilution

For six of the nine patients, there is a slight trend in SyncSmart to miss some AEs (about 10% as detailed in Table 2 ) as exemplified with the AT shown in Figure 1 ( t = 738 s) that is considered as a normal cycle.

Figure 11 shows the rapid changes in TCC, showing a slight trend for the stochastic model to have reduced cloud cover compared to the deterministic model.

A slight trend of weight reduction was observed in treated fish, possibly due to the ceased feeding behaviour observed through the experiment, but no significant statistical differences were found in weight or length analysis.

Across all 9 test days, a slight trend was noted for EYFP control D1 mice to mildly prefer their laser spout over the alternative spout by nearly 2:1, but this failed to reach significance on any day (9 touches SEM±4 on laser spout, 4 SEM±3 on non-laser spout).

The order of selections within each trial provides us with information on which values were being prioritised; there was a slight trend towards selection of values further from the mean towards the latter half of the trial, seen in Fig. 3 A.

There was a slight trend toward a decreased proportion of homozygous C allele carriers among recipients with BKV-associated nephropathy due to BK viremia (3 of 30 patients (10%)) than among recipients without BKV-associated nephropathy (14 of 71 patients (20%); p = 0.23; Table 5 ), although the difference was not statistically significant.

Conclusions The volatile fraction of the brandies was strongly marked by the young wine spirit and presented a slight trend to increase over the aging process as a result of the growing concentration attributable to the merma phenomenon.

S3 shows a slight trend that decreasing pH increases structural stability.

It was found that the PLS-DA plot showed a clear separation of the HM sample from the AR sample, with a slight trend of dissociation from the AR group ( Figure 5B ).

At the larger concentrations, there is a slight trend toward lower spreading fractions with increasing current density, which is potentially related to the activation of additional nucleation sites.

Post-COVID Fibrosis Gene Ontology Results Show Activation of Host Immune Response and Decrease in Cilium Movement and DNA Repair Gene ontologies for the common upregulated post-COVID fibrosis genes revealed a slight trend towards the adaptive immune system, with two entries related to antigen processing and presentation ( Figure 4 D and Supplementary Table S9 ).

There is a slight trend of increasing mutagenicity with increasing PAH, but with a p value of .33, the correlation is not significant.

Although there was a slight trend of growth inhibition during MSA treatment, this inhibition was not significant because the tumors were rather small.

NMDS ordination of the OTU results demonstrated that, despite a slight trend toward treatment-based clustering at the last sampling time, the total coral-associated microbiome was not significantly affected by EE2 contamination, and was clustered only by time (days 0, 3, 9 and 17, i.e.

For fruit samples, there were no significant ( P >0.05) differences in alpha-diversity, with a slight trend to decrease alpha-diversity after 30 days of fermentation.

While we did detect a significant increase in knowledge among women in the intervention arm about the ideal birth weight of the baby, and a slight trend for increasing knowledge on this topic with longer exposure to mMitra, we did not observe a significant impact of mMitra on infant birth weight.

The “With Milk” group demonstrated a slight trend versus other pairwise comparisons towards improved mean adherence.

For ADSC/Mb a slight trend in favor of the control group was detected.
