“a strong trend”

As was previously observed in other experiments [9] , there was a strong trend towards baseline mean arterial pressure (MAP) being slightly elevated in GR EC KO mice compared to controls (78.4±0.73 mm Hg vs. 73.1±1.91 mm Hg, p = 0.05).

In the Italian comparative study of standard versus more aggressive surgery [ 15 ], the addition of RT, administered preoperatively or postoperatively, seemed to result in LR reduction ( p = 0.023) and a strong trend towards increased OS ( p = 0.050).

In the subgroup of lung cancer patients, we observed the following differences that were significant or showed a strong trend when compared to baseline: sFLT (at RTduring, p = 0.05), PlGF (at RTduring and RTend, p = 0.01), VEGF-C (at RTduring and RTend, p < 0.001; at FU1, p = 0.04), VEGF-D (FU1, p < 0.001), INF-γ (FU1, p = 0.008), IL-8 (at RTend, p = 0.02; at FU1, p = 0.03; and at FU2, p = 0.03) and HGF (at FU1, p = 0.01).

In GCA, there was a strong trend toward lower NK-cells in treatment-free remission compared to HCs ( p = 0.05).

Moreover, a strong trend was demonstrated for decreased LDL cholesterol (100 ± 8 mg/dL (2.59 ± 0.21) to 93 ± 7 (2.40 ± 0.18); p = 0.05) and a decline in TC:HDL ratio from 4.0 ± 0.3 during control to 3.7 ± 0.2 during the fiber intervention ( p = 0.02) period.

[ 6 ], assessing the movement of the BN and base during voluntary MPFC and VM in 60 asymptomatic and 60 incontinent women, found a strong trend for the continent women to have greater BN elevation (p<0.05).

3f ), while the level of significance was not reached for CD8 + T cells in spite of a strong trend (HC: median of 37.4; p = 0.05; Fig. 3b ).

While the serum IL-18 levels were similar in the hypertensive compared with the normotensive group, normotensive men had a strong trend of increased IL-18 levels compared with corresponding women ( P =0.05; Figure S7C ).

However, normalized chamber variances of all experiments were within the same range (−0.4 < ∆ ab < 0.4), with a strong trend of LAB experiments being slightly more variable compared to field experiments ( p = 0.05).

Densitometric analysis of Western immunoblots demonstrated that Tacr-1 protein levels were increased in human mesenteric preadipocytes isolated from Crohn’s disease patients, and there was a strong trend for increase in UC patient preadipocytes ( Figure 2 D , P < .05, n = 4).

25%], with a strong trend of better survival over time ( P = 0.05).[ 55 ] Central nervous system (CNS) metastasis was the most common cause of relapse and death.

There was a strong trend to a decrease in epigenetic age acceleration in female participants with the novel InflammAge clock ( p = 0.05, Suppl.

Furthermore, a strong trend for an interaction of ‘sex’ with ‘genotype’ [F(1,39) = 4.0, p = .05] indicated that the impaired spatial reference memory of female mice in the probe trial was more pronounced in Abca7 −/− females than WT females ( Fig. 4B ).

This is supported by a strong trend (P = 0.05) toward improvement in the mean T bili level (in mg/dL, 1 (standard deviation (SD) 1.7) vs. 2 (2.5), P = 0.02) in the ICI group.

On the other hand, at P110 SOD1 animals displayed a strong trend ( P = 0.05) toward an inverse correlation between bending stiffness and maximum bending force ( Figure 1F ), indicating a decoupling between these two measures.

6 A meta-analysis of 18 studies involving 146,372 octogenarians reported a strong trend toward reduced mortality in OPCAB patients (odds ratio, 0.75; 95% CI, 0.56-1.00; P = .05), although statistical significance was not reached. 4 The ability of OPCAB to dampen systemic inflammatory responses, to minimize organ dysfunction, and to reduce physiologic stress may account for its lower 30-day mortality rate. 7 Although OPCAB patients received fewer grafts overall, their ICOR was significantly higher compared with ONCAB patients.

There was a strong trend for NT-proBNP levels at discharge to independently predict 30-day mortality ( P = 0.05).

Specifically, between‐group differences for PEF%p, PEF, FVC, FEV1%p, and FEV1 for the change from baseline to week 52 were statistically significant and between‐group differences for FVC%p reached a strong trend ( P < 0.05 at weeks 13, 26, and 39; P = 0.082 at week 52). 17 Overall, the results of the study indicate a consistent slowing of the decline of these pulmonary function outcomes.

Diffusion-based tract volume (DTV) of the tracts between ipsilesional primary motor cortex and contralesional anterior cerebellar hemisphere showed a strong trend ( p = 0.05) for a predictive power for long-term motor outcome as measured by MI.

8 mg/kg FA fortification prevented the occurrence of radiation-induced defects in the cervical region, whilst the 12 mg/kg diet group also showed a strong trend (henceforth defined as P = 0.05–0.08) toward prevention ( Figure 4 , cervical vertebrae).

There was a strong trend of reduced relative CSA and reduced lesion CSA of fdESC treated tendons compared to that of CONT tendons (one-tailed P = 0.05 and P = 0.06, respectively; Table 1 ).

In addition, a strong trend in increased expression of HO-1 could be observed ( Fig 4B , p = 0.05) and the expression of NQO1 was elevated in response to shear stress ( Fig 4C , p = 0.004).

We therefore exposed neurons to astrocyte-conditioned medium (CM) for 3 days and observed a strong trend toward an increase of puromycin puncta in Syn-Homer synaptosomes ( p = 0.05; Figure 4A ii ), which became significant in post- ( Figure 4A iii ) and presynaptic compartments ( Figure 4A iv ).

5b ), a strong trend for a significant difference in EAE clinical score could be detected 11 (xCT +/+ vs. xCT −/− BM mice: 0.75 ± 0.23 vs. 0.21 ± 0.12; p = 0.050; n = 13–14) and 14 days (xCT +/+ vs. xCT −/− BM mice: 3.31 ± 0.26 vs. 2.46 ± 0.21; p = 0.054; n = 13–14) after immunization, with a better outcome for mice lacking xCT in their immune cells (Fig. 5a ).

There was a strong trend for an effect of genotype [ F (1,18) = 4.3, p = 0.05], suggesting Nrg1 TM HET mice tended to show higher reinstatement lever responding when controlling for extinction lever pressing (Supplementary Figure S4 A).
