“a strong trend”

( C ) Kaplan-Meier curve analysis shows a strong trend towards a reduced overall survival for sarcopenic patients with a pre-interventional PMI below 13.39 mm/m 2 .

Discussion Summarizing our findings, data suggest that European ethnicity is a risk factor for cutaneous melanoma, with a strong trend toward greater risk associated with the number of European grandparents.

Although there was no significant difference in mortality at 12 month follow-up, there were patient subgroups that seemed to have a strong trend towards a reduction in mortality: elderly over 75 years of age, diabetics, renal insufficiency (as defined as a creatinine clearance less than 60 mL/min), unstable angina, or any previous heparin therapy ( Lincoff et al 2003 ).

Particularly, those disease genes which are also essential genes show a strong trend to encode hub proteins [ 28 ].

Similarly, lower levels of protein C showed a strong trend toward predicting worse clinical outcomes, independent of other predictor variables (Table 4 ).

Following univariate analysis to determine factors associated with overall survival, Cox multivariate analysis included variables that were either significant or showed a strong trend to statistical significance on univariate analysis.

CS-exposed NHPs also had a strong trend toward reduction in forced expiratory volume in 0.1 second, which may reflect the small airway disease that develops after 12 weeks of CS exposure. 47 Dr.

For both groups, there was also a strong trend of increasing viral RNA levels in these samples as dpi progressed.

The findings indicate a strong trend in welfare performance in accordance with the degree of farming intensification.

S5i ), with a strong trend towards lower total release compared to Syt1 WT with EGTA-AM (Supplementary Fig.

Results of international collaboration publications: 11 out of 21 papers (51%) involved authors from multiple countries, demonstrating a strong trend of global cooperation in this study area.

Vitamin D was the one exception in the current and other studies [ 39 , 41 ] where vitamin D intake was well below the EAR and did not show a strong trend of increasing with age.

For diagnosis and nodal staging, PVC yielded a strong trend of increased sensitivity at expense of specificity.

Our key findings were (a) Quality of life was significantly more improved in SCS responders than nonresponders, (b) SCS nonresponders had significantly abnormally inefficient CPM and a strong trend towards abnormally low sgACC PAF, (c) higher PAF power significantly correlated with a lower degree of pain relief in the ANP and SN and (d) whole group correlations between pain relief and PAF power may be driven in the ANP by males and in the SN by females.

After propensity score matching, they could not find significant differences concerning anastomotic leakage rates, but a strong trend favoring RAMIE could be shown as well ( 29 ).

The rate of severe bleeding did not differ significantly between these groups, although a strong trend towards an increased risk was observed in patients receiving clopidogrel plus ASA.

Since in the C57BL6/J strain, females mice heal significantly faster than male mice on days 4–5 post surgery, with a strong trend towards faster wound healing on days 1–3, we followed the recommendation to exclude sex differences when investigating wound healing (Rowland et al. 2023 ).

Adult bone mesenchyme stem cell lines showed a strong trend on the blood vessel differentiation and cell motion, 48/49 vascular related differential expressed genes showed higher expression in adult bone mesenchyme stem cell lines (Abmsc) than fetal bone mesenchyme stem cell lines (Fbmsc). 96/106 cell motion related genes showed the same tendency.

We observed a strong trend towards higher expression of the Scx and Tnmd genes in tendons after ADMSC application in relation to the control group, supposing differentiation of ADMSC applied and/or endogenous stem cells into tenocytes.

In the bone marrow compartment, a strong trend of reduced eGFP expression in mCherry positive T cells was seen (Fig. 6 B, Suppl.

In recent years, there has been a strong trend towards non-operative and minimal invasive management of iatrogenic tracheal injuries [ 6 ]; however, thoracoscopic minimally invasive techniques are seldom mentioned in research literature [ 15 ].

In recent years, there has been a strong trend in the social sciences to examine only direct, unidirectional effects between variables, which is limited in explaining the multi-layered and dynamic nature of social phenomena.

We found a strong trend between increased cumulative anthracycline dose in patients with accelerated ECG aging ( Figure 2 A).

TAR showed a strong trend towards decreased graft stenosis and long-term mortality.

Compared to vehicle-treated septic mice, recAAT-treated mice showed significantly lower plasma TNF levels and a strong trend toward lower CCL2, IL-6, and IL-10 levels ( Figure 5A ).
