“a strong trend”

In general, there was a strong trend for greater absolute consumption of all food categories by the less healthy diet quality groups (results for absolute consumption are available from the investigators).

Contrary to expectations, the subgroups predicted to be chemoresistant still demonstrated significant survival benefit post-chemotherapy, or a strong trend for this ( Figure S4E and F ).

[ 124 ] The pro‐angiogenic effect is also backed up by a strong trend for enhanced VEGF release from a human ELISA assay on the BColl samples (Figure S11, Supporting Information).

Recent years have seen a strong trend towards implementation fidelity despite the fact that, at a micro level, contexts can vary quite significantly [ 7 ].

However, there was a strong trend for difference in adaptive trajectories, and final fitness, between asexual-WT and asexual-mutators.

The timing of ACS showed a strong trend towards the need for less CPAP, surfactant, and ventilation in the subgroup ACS ≤ 7days.

Overall, cases classified as AD by the CSF biomarker profile, had significantly higher levels of AT8-positive tau aggregates and a strong trend for higher total tau (CI 95 = −2.62, 54.65) and Aβ (CI 95 = −2.83, 71.54) aggregate levels.

that there was a strong trend in both sexes towards increased premature responding in long-delay trials, but these remain non-significant based on our set statistical significance threshold (p female = 0.112, p male = 0.173).

However, a recent meta-analysis of rEpo used in both patients with anemia and without anemia suggests a strong trend towards a survival advantages in favor of the use of rEpo ( Bohlius et al , 2005 ).

While historically the first examples of OFPs (e.g., spiropyran) were designed by synthetic chemists and were employed qualitatively to visualize force-induced reactions in polymers, 8 , 13 recently a strong trend to quantitative measurements has been promoted by researchers applying OFPs as tools to investigate mechanical phenomena in soft matter. 14 − 16 Specifically the application of high-resolution microscopy methods, such as confocal laser scanning microscopy, 17 , 18 enabled the quantification of bond scission processes on the locally resolved sub-micrometer scale. 14 , 19 This information aided in developing and benchmarking computational models and polymer theory.

Located in the urban network node and the surrounding villages, the basic conditions are good, the population density is large and relatively concentrated, driven by the location factors, it develops well and has a strong trend of new urbanization.

Moreover, the levels of anti-inflammatory IL-10 showed a strong trend to be higher in the FECD + cataract group compared to the control group.

No significant differences were observed for the percentage of steps relative to pumps across conditions (χ 2 = 7.045, p = 0.070), though there was a strong trend toward more steps and fewer pumps in the congruent and faster optic flow conditions than in the random and no optic flow control conditions.

A strong trend for a reduction in dendritic spine density was also reported by Selemon et al.

29 , 30 Moreover, very recent data from the randomized EXPIRA trial (Sardella, personal communication at TCT 2007 meeting) and the randomized TAPAS trial showed respectively a strong trend toward lower mortality at nine months 26 and a significantly lower mortality at 12 months in the group of patients treated with thrombectomy. 10 Therefore the available data support the possible advantage of thrombectomy on long-term clinical outcome.

A strong trend towards a significant treatment effect on plasma NfL concentrations was observed over the 6-month interval in response to 50 μg HTT ASO treatment initiated at 8 months of age (Fig.

To that end, EXE 4 levels in the BALs positively and significantly correlated with blood eosinophils counts while there was a strong trend between EXE 4 and BAL eosinophils counts.

Combination of Active and Intelligent Hydrogel-Based Packaging Currently, there is a strong trend of combining the properties of AP and IP.

Epileptic mice also showed a strong trend towards a higher probability for induced behavioral seizures ( Figure 7I ; control: 3.1 ± 0.6%; epileptic: 5.3 ± 0.9), which appeared to depend on the spatial extent of the spontaneously epileptic network ( Supplementary Figure 7D ).

As stated earlier, there was a strong trend for improvement in the treated groups, but in the placebo group, there was no clear trend, with some participants decreasing in anagen ratio and some increasing, resulting in a median change of 0.

Morphology Available studies show a strong trend toward using working and sporting dog breeds for conservation work, breeds with morphological characteristics which allow them to maintain performance in the face of challenging search environments, long working hours, and unfavorable weather conditions ( 16 ).

There was a strong trend toward higher SWV in pitchers as compared to volunteers, although the difference did not reach statistical significance ( P = .056).

The RAMSES-01 regimens resulted in significantly better LPFS and showed a strong trend for a higher rate of improvement of motor function.

Subgroup analyses indicated a strong trend of prognostic powers with pre-/post-treatment EBV DNA.

woesei TATA-box binding protein demonstrated a strong trend of increasing affinity for DNA binding with increasing salt concentration (0.8 to 1.2 M) [ 17 ].
