Although the p-value for experienced readers did not reach the conventional threshold of significance in McNemar's test (p = 0.0604), a strong trend was observed, and significant improvement was found for less experienced readers (p = 0.00173).
In addition, there was a strong trend towards increased respiratory quotient (RQ) during the light phase.
Nevertheless, as the table demonstrates, there is a strong trend towards better QOL in patients who received r-HuEPO.
Previous study reported that pSS patients had a strong trend to present dyslipidemia when compared to healthy individuals ( Cruz et al., 2010 ).
A strong trend in dental applications is to apply nanotechnology and smart nanomaterials such as nanoclays, nanofibers, nanocomposites, nanobubbles, nanocapsules, solid-lipid nanoparticles, nanospheres, metallic nanoparticles, nanotubes, and nanocrystals.
3 , RCS showed a strong trend toward non-linear positive association of RC, Lp(a), and hsCRP with MACEs in our patients.
We further observed a strong trend towards less obstetric complications in second pregnancy (Fig. 1d ).
However, there was a strong trend toward a better cure rate among female school-aged children than that of their male counterparts (92% vs. 81%), which could be impacted by a mild trend toward more light infections in female children.
One possible exception to the general lack of benefit of more aggressive RBC transfusion is the patient with acute myocardial infarction, with the recently reported MINT trial showing a strong trend in outcomes ( Carson et al., 2023 ) interpreted by some ( Bloch and Tobian, 2023 ) as supporting a more liberal transfusion strategy in these patients and, by extension, a recognition that one size does not fit all in RBC transfusion decision-making.
Two high-quality analyses [ 61 , 62 ] have both noted a strong trend toward a greater protective effect with dual-ring variants when compared to devices constructed with a single external ring and associated semi-adhesive drape.
In bivariate analysis, gender showed to have a significant effect on the AP angle ( p ( t -test): 0.0164) but not on the lateral pelvis angle, despite a strong trend ( p ( t -test): 0.0884).
In particular, the statistically significant increase of ACAN , SMAD3 , TGFB1 , and ID1 was confirmed in physiologically compressed samples even with n = 4, while the upregulation of ALK5 , BMP2 , and COL2 did not yet reach significance ( p = 0.06), but presented a strong trend following the same pattern shown in Figure 5 .
Interestingly, whereas 10% CO 2 had no effect on cued and context fear memory in Asic1a –/– mice, there was a strong trend toward a decrease in NOR in Asic1a –/– mice, suggesting that ASIC1A might mediate the fear conditioning, but not object recognition memory.
Despite sampling an older age population, our findings show a strong trend to sero-reversion in this community.
For comparison, MS-Gal-3 activated both DC subtypes to produce more of each cytokine, either significantly or with a strong trend, than those induced using sGal-3 at 100 ng/ml.
Although the percentage of CypHer5E + RTECs that ingested one of more apoptotic Jurkat cells did not differ between Elmo1 +/+ and Elmo1 –/– RTECs, we noted a strong trend toward the reduced number of engulfed cells per Elmo1 –/– RTEC (compared to control), as evident by the reduced geometric mean fluorescence index (MFI) of the CypHer5E signal (Fig. 3C ).
"Back-to-bedside", we observed a strong trend (even if not statistically significant, due to the size of our cohort) toward an increased radiologically-assessed response to MAPK inhibition therapy in BRAFV600- metastatic tumors containing a lower proportion of HuR Low cells (lower Z-score < −2SD) [35] .
While MONALESSA-2 [ 5 ] has demonstrated a significant overall survival (OS) benefit with the addition of the CDK4/6-inhibitor ribociclib to letrozole and MONARCH-3 [ 6 ] showed a strong trend towards OS significance with the addition of abemaciclib to endocrine therapy in its interim analysis, PALOMA-2 [ 7 ] did not demonstrate similar statistical improvement in OS with the addition of palbociclib to letrozole.

Thus, assuming that O -methyl-alpha-glucopyranoside levels reflect that of glucose, we observe a strong trend with the levels of its derivative myo -inositol ( Fig. 5 ).
Overall, our analyses identified a strong trend toward a significant difference in the binding motif composition between pDHSs and iDHSs.
Actuarial survival from diagnosis did not differ between groups, being 33 months in Val122Ile and 36 months in SSA, but there was a a strong trend to better survival from symptom onset in SSA (66 months in SSA v 51 months in Val122Ile).
Moreover, significant inhibition and a strong trend for the decrease of TGFB2 and vimentin were found in CACHD1kn Huh7 and HepG2 cells, respectively ( Figure 3 D). 2.2.2.
There were no significant differences in the changes of UPDRS total or motor scores, although there was a strong trend toward improvement in motor scores.
There is a strong trend towards standardization for the use of tubes that are free of chemical additives.
