Ineffective malarial treatment would have reduced the differential in health consultation frequency between those correctly and incorrectly diagnosed with malaria and despite this the data indicated a strong trend towards increased health consultations in adult patients who were overdiagnosed with malaria.
Beginning with Edelman and colleagues' ( 1998 ) and Haxby and colleagues' ( 2001 ) seminal studies, applications of MVPA to functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) data have become increasingly popular, leading to a strong trend towards investigating representations and predicting “information” (i.e. the content of cognition) in cognitive neuroscience (for reviews and comments see: Davis and Poldrack 2013 ; Haynes 2015 ; Haynes and Rees 2006 ; Heinzle et al. 2012 ; Hogendoorn 2015 ; Mur et al. 2009 ; Norman et al. 2006 ; Kriegeskorte et al. 2006 ; Tong and Pratte 2012 ; Woolgar et al. 2014 , 2016 ) and to the publication of several toolboxes (Hanke et al. 2009a ; Hebart et al. 2015 ; Oosterhof et al. 2016 ).
Serum insulin exhibited a strong trend towards being higher in Perk +/− mice injected with glucose ( Fig 2E ) but was not quite statistically significant.
This algorithm is based on the approaches proposed by the authors in several previous studies and allows unbiased estimates for the trend and seasonal components for data with a strong trend containing different periodic (including seasonal) variations, as well as observational gaps and omissions.
Likewise, a strong trend towards an increased secretion of IL-1B by peripheral blood polymorphonuclear cells was described for carriers of allele 2 as compared to non-carriers [ 38 , 39 ].
22 Despite the effect of DAPT, however, meta-analyses have revealed a strong trend of higher stroke rates after PCI versus OMT. 18 While the absolute stroke risk is rather small, its clinical impact is substantial given the potential for disabling neurologic impairment, and such risk should be discussed openly and transparently with patients before PCI.
The long-term durability of BPVs is becoming an even more crucial issue nowadays, as there is currently a strong trend for implanting BPVs in younger patients with longer life expectancy.
Although no significant moderation effects in outcome trajectories were observed, a strong trend is evident.
14 In their analysis, Gabler and colleagues found a strong trend toward poorer response among AA as assessed by change in 6MWD over 12 weeks.
Results: Lower kallistatin levels on days 1 & 4 showed a strong trend toward increased mortality with a p-value of 0.043 & 0.04 respectively.
This is in contrast to the neighboring non-ECA area, where neither quantity has a strong trend, except in 2020 when the new global fuel standard takes effect.
Post hoc paired t -tests of the perfusion changes in right STG over time within the IG revealed a strong trend (after correction for multiple comparisons) for perfusion increase from T0 to T4, but no significance between T0 and T2 and T0 to T6.
For headache, a strong trend indicated that the risk was higher on workday 3 compared with workday 2 for night shifts (OR 1.13, 95% CI 0.99 to 1.28).
These findings confirm a strong trend toward hybrid architectures, where microservices and event-driven mechanisms integrate with blockchain, layered, or edge-computing solutions to deliver flexible and resilient infrastructure.
Using the NCEP ATP III criteria, there was a strong trend of higher proportion of MS (44.15%) in COPD as compared to non-COPD (31.16%); however, the difference did not reach statistical significance ( P < 0.096).
We found a strong trend suggesting that the lower the SEP, the less likely the participants were to recognise each cancer symptom.
Examination of the number of publications per year ( Figure 2A ), illustrates a strong trend of research proliferation—with an average publication growth rate of 14.74%.
Among these, one found a statistically significant beneficial effect [ 17 ], one found a strong trend towards a beneficial effect [ 18 ] and six showed no effects [ 12 , 19 - 23 ].
Major findings from recent studies [ 36 , 143 ] and our own recent pilot study of men receiving ADT demonstrated a strong trend between elevated C-peptide and more rapid progression to CRPC.
Consistent with this, we find a strong trend of MCKa bones to early fracture under a bend test.
Increasing serum antioxidant capacity in patients during RT showed a strong trend towards compromised local control.
In general, we observed a strong trend toward upregulation of microRNAs in patients with type 2 diabetes ( Fig. 4A ).
The results suggest a strong trend of higher satisfaction among SG patients compared to CG patients (Table 4 ).
Importantly, after PL therapy, the lipid-to-protein ratio in the myelin of CMT rats showed a strong trend toward normalization, although the majority of individual lipid classes does not reach significance compared with non-treated Pmp22 transgenic controls (Fig. 5c ).
The impact on inflammatory pathology, though not clinically significant, demonstrated a strong trend toward small bowel protection.
