The focus is no longer only on credit for investment in microenterprises (Ledgerwood 2013 ), but there is a strong trend to innovations which have led to a combination of microfinance with non-financial services, including business training (Dunford 2002 ; Valdivia et al. 2008 ) which is an education aspect.
Although not statistically significant, initiative category posts demonstrated a strong trend toward higher reach.
Therefore, there is a strong trend of the samples to be classified based on the ILs used and on the type of substrate.
Furthermore, a strong trend toward a mortality benefit from antagonists compared with agonists was observed, as has been reported elsewhere.
Gestational diabetes as a strong predictor for poor birth outcomes is not surprising given the rich medical literature on this association; however, finding such a strong trend across two of the three outcomes given that only 1% of our sample screened for gestational diabetes underscores the importance of screening for gestational diabetes during pregnancy, particularly among populations that have increased risk factors, including high levels of overweight and obesity among women.[ 31 ] The low prevalence of these complications may reflect that mothers were young with a median age of around 26 years.
Fecal excretion of cholesterol was increased and there was a strong trend for doubled fecal excretion of free fatty acids, while excretion of triglycerides was unaltered, indicating dampened lipid absorption.
The results indicated that MHS efficiency demonstrated a strong trend in the East but was weaker in the West and Central.
This reduction showed a strong trend toward statistical significance, and, had it reached significance, the number needed to treat to prevent the occurrence of one primary endpoint would be 22.
Conversely, a strong trend towards a negative correlation between NDEVs’ STX-1A/VAMP-2 concentrations and RBDSQ total score was also observed, although this correlation did not reach statistical significance.
The Δq NPA values for the major regioisomers 4-R-a also showed a strong trend with our observed selectivities ( SI Figure S131 ).
Our data confirm a strong trend toward studies using human induced PSCs (iPSCs), while human embryonic stem cells (ESCs) continue to be used in a significant portion of roughly 50% of all studies.
in patients with CrCL 30–49 ml/min demonstrated a strong trend for a decrease in the rate of stroke/systemic embolism with rivaroxaban versus warfarin and a good safety profile.
There is a strong trend in the field of study, namely drastic increase or significant decrease.
We did, however, find a strong trend towards an association of both the clinical risk group (according to the D’Amico classification modified by Zumsteg) and the Gleason score, with progression-free survival.
Participants carrying the rs2516513 T allele or the HLA-DRB1*07:01 allele exhibited a strong trend for benefit of bezlotoxumab treatment in the high-risk rCDI category.
We found that hAPLN was associated with aCL, but a strong trend between hAPLN and anti-β 2 GP1 or LA was also detected.
The finding that lower magnesium, sodium and albumin were independently associated with ionized hypocalcemia, with a strong trend for higher phosphate, suggests these biochemical derangements should be specifically considered in the assessment of hypocalcemic patients.
However, these three risk factors should be at least considered as constituting a strong trend of risk factors for COM/ROM.
A Wilcoxon Signed rank-sum Test corrected with false discovery rate ( q = 0.01) for multiple comparisons (across 121 frequency bins) revealed a strong trend of increment in relative power spectrum for the low, compared to high, SCH-PRS group within the frequency interval 30–40 Hz.
A study of 13,994 CRC patients from the UK General Practice Research Database found a strong trend towards a reduction in overall mortality; however, this failed to reach significance (HR 0.91, CI 0.82–1.00) [ 29 ].
Finally, there was a strong trend that being a male caregiver was positively associated with caregiver HRQOL.
Using Tukey’s HSD post hoc test indicated that Master’s students were more likely to disagree with the following statement when compared to Faculty/Professors: “I would feel more comfortable attending Brain Barrier conferences/seminars in person, but was glad to attend virtually due to COVID19.” A strong trend emerged when Master’s and Ph.D. students were grouped together and compared to Post-Docs and Faculty/Professors in an independent-samples t test.
41 In combination with MT, the MR CLEAN-NO IV (Endovascular Treatment for Acute Ischemic Stroke in the Netherlands) trial reported a strong trend toward lower rates of death in the IVT group, but none of the noninferiority trials found a significant treatment effect on mortality. 15 , 16 , 29 , 40 The reduction of death rates should be treated with caution until further evidence becomes available.
Continuous monitoring of unrestrained, non-anesthetised mice via radio-telemetric catheterization showed that although resting heart rates were unchanged in all mutants relative to wild type controls (n = 7) through diurnal variation ( Figure 1A ), there was a constitutive hypotensive state in K14cre-HIF-2α mice (n = 7) and NOS2 mutants (n = 6) ( Figure 1B ) and a strong trend towards a hypertensive state in K14cre-HIF-1α mice.
We found no consistent evidence for ageism in the demand for or delivery of healthcare services, although older people were significantly less likely to use healthcare services in Cuba and rural India, after adjusting for health status and other variables, with a strong trend in that direction in rural China.
