“a small trend”

When compared to M1 macrophages at day 0, fusion related genes showed no upregulation in M1 FBGCs anymore after fusion (Day 5), except for a small trend in CD44 ( Figures 6C , 9C ).

In reality, results also show that although the influence is not so relevant, a small trend seems to suggest that the lower the height, the lower the fatigue performance.

Contrary to these results and our hypothesis, no difference in motility was observed for BPS-treated sperm in this current research, although a small trend in reduced progressive motility can be seen within the cryo-thawed groups.

For cellulose synthase encoding gene, the transcript abundance was relatively stable in the whole diel cycle, although there was a small trend of increase throughout the dark period and the first 6 h of the light period, with an apparent peak at the 6th hour of the light period (G1 phase) ( Figure 3B ).

For BTf-ZnTf 2 GPEs Tm values show a very steady value of about 110 °C with a small trend to lower temperatures.

There were no differences between the different sessions showing no effect of Scenario, also, there was no significant effect from long-term interaction either, although there was a small trend that participants rated the agent as easier to use in the later sessions.

Therefore, a small trend to more overestimation of the keratometric approach is observed in keratoconus once a CXL treatment is applied.

However, there is a small trend in favour of private schools as can be observed in Fig. 15 .

Our data shows no significance but a small trend for improvement in visual acuity in both subgroups.

Results Post-intervention scores revealed a small trend toward increased emotional exhaustion and depersonalization scores, and with increased personal accomplishment scores.

However, a small trend is observed in all assays, with SMM being more potent than SMV.

Exercise tolerance—graded exercise tests and time to exhaustion A recent meta-analysis detected only a small trend toward improvement in graded exercise test performance, and a subgroup analysis revealed a statistically significant improvement in time to exhaustion following nitrate supplementation.

However, in the PARAGON-HF trial, sacubitril/valsartan did not significantly improve AF incidence, HF hospitalizations, and cardiovascular death, although a small trend toward benefit emerged among women and patients with lower EF ranges [ 103 ]. 8.2.5.

No significant differences between HF and HF + flavonoid were observed in the serum lipid levels; however, some of the flavonoids showed a small trend towards the levels found for NF (Fig. 3 a).

Keywords macrophage recruitment NG2 proteoglycan pericyte-endothelial cell interaction tumor vascularization tumor microenvironment Tests of life span in tumor-bearing mice reveal that Mac-NG2ko mice exhibit a small trend toward increased survival compared to control mice ( Fig. 1E ).

A small trend could be observed for a slightly higher HLI in prognosis areas with a better nSES compared to those with a worse nSES (Table 2 ).

Conclusions Planned cesarean delivery in twin pregnancies shows a small trend toward improved neonatal outcomes but is associated with higher maternal wound complications.

Furthermore, endothelial β1 integrin expression increased in the calf, while only showing a small trend towards higher expression in the thigh (Supplementary Fig.

The analysis regarding HbA1c revealed no statistically significant overall effect despite a small trend toward improvement.

There was a small trend in p-Erk1/2 increase in the SHR group but it was not statistically significant ( Figure 3(c) ). 3.4.

Our trial and previous literature suggest a small trend of benefit from antibiotic prophylaxis regardless of trial limitations.

the combined Groups 2, 3, and 4 did not reach significance (p = 0.15), though a small trend was observed in favor of Group 1.

In another study, the treatment of participants with exPH defined by peak exercise mPAP > 30 mmHg, PAWP < 20 mmHg, and PVR > 1 WU led to significant improvement in exercise pulmonary hemodynamics including PAC, symptoms, and functional status, though with only a small trend toward improvement in VO 2 [ 110 ].

Two phase 3 studies (EXPEDITION and EXPEDITION2) did not achieve statistical significance on the primary outcome, but a small trend for slowing of progression was evident, with most secondary outcomes achieving nominal statistical significance ( Doody et al., 2014 ).

Even though the pulse series are acquired above the switching threshold, only the dG corresponding to the first pulse stands far from the x axis, while the next points follow a small trend at intermediate conductance levels which is highlighted by the soft bound law, then they accumulate along the x axis.
