Here, a weak trend toward the lowered level of apoptosis in the prostatic epithelium in mice of 1 month of age was noted as measured with immunohistochemical analysis of activated Caspase-3 staining, but the tumors did not show a similar trend.
There was no apparent distinction between fynbos species and IAP species in terms of their flammability, although there was a weak trend of IAPs burning at higher intensities than fynbos and thicket species.
Morphological traits did not differ between islands, aside from a weak trend toward longer hind femora in Mou Waho individuals.
Further analysis of these data showed a weak trend of increasing genome sizes toward higher salinities, especially in the small size fraction ( Figure 7a ).
The RRs for GSD showed a weak trend between 28 and 40 g/day with a plateau occurring above 40 g/day, with RRs of 0.62 (0.58 to 0.66) and 0.61 (0.52 to 0.71) at 40 and 60 g/day, respectively.
Our analysis revealed a weak trend in cohort 1, where increased HLA heterozygosity appeared to be associated with reduced TCR diversity, as indicated by both P gen and P post (fig.
Macrophyte assemblages showed a weak trend toward taxonomic differentiation between periods (mean dissimilarity increase of 0.08 ± 0.17; Table 2 ).
After three days, there was a weak trend for increased Upk1b , Tagln and Acta2 expression.
Our results support this hypothesis, although, given the limited number of patients, only a weak trend in favor of those patients with a high PMA (≥ 0.36) was found.
Phylogeny-based correlation analyses indicated only a weak trend for solitary species to be cryptic, and for gregarious ones to be conspicuous.
However, we found only a weak trend for eggs to be bluer in areas where a parasite was present, which differs from the generally brown cuckoo egg.
Interestingly, a study by Siegel found that pets had an effect in mediating the relationship between AIDS diagnosis and depression and that there was a weak trend towards dogs being more successful in this role than cats [ 33 ].
After quantification by high-resolution sector field inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (HR-SF-ICP-MS), no statistically significant differences were detected in blood metal levels in SAC receiving the probiotic or milk control, although we noted that there was a weak trend of reduced blood levels of lead and arsenic ( Table 4 ).
A weak trend to the increment of Dex-CD86 occurred in patients with stable disease, while those in clinical progression showed low levels in all instances.
According to a survey of private practice pathologists that Dr Richard Horowitz performed in 2005, community practice hospitals are utilizing more and more molecular tools in their daily practice, and the senior pathologists “depend on young pathologists to bring these techniques with them from the university.” 8 Interestingly, although there is a weak trend toward more weeks of molecular pathology in larger programs, there is a wide range in weeks assigned across all program sizes.
longifolia individuals, but indicated a weak trend towards 15 N enrichment in the neighbourhood of very large canopies, which accounted for approximately 1‰ increase (Fig. 3b ).
identified a weak trend of higher liver inflammation correlating with longer liver T1rho ( 10 ), whereas rats with no or minimal inflammation could still have very high T1rho values amid collagen deposition ( 13 ).
No significant interaction between food size and TSFA was observed (p = 0.099, Greenhouse-Geisser corrected), though the uncorrected value was marginal (p = 0.057), suggesting only a weak trend.
50 Data for sVCAM‐1 and sICAM‐1 only showed a weak trend with LEAD severity, which was attenuated after adjustment for baseline risk factors. 30 Furthermore, Edlinger et al. did not find any relationship between sVCAM‐1 and increasing disease stage according to Rutherford classifications.
We found only a weak trend that immature males were more likely than immature females to peer at adult males, even though visualizing the data suggests that there is a difference ( Fig 2A ).
No such trend is detectable in our data for petrous bones (P2, P3) and teeth (T3), and only a weak trend in other bones (B2).
The exposure‐response of efficacy and biomarkers were generally flat with a weak trend in favor of the highest dose/exposure.
In the aforementioned study, there was a weak trend of a comparably lower number of macrophages in the spleen tissue and higher number of macrophages in the bone marrow among the 3 mice with viral rebound.
The common signal showed a weak trend toward decreasing with distance from the stimulation source, but this effect was not statistically significant ( Figure S12D ).
We observed significant efficacy regardless of age among participants with previous vascular disease, whereas there was a weak trend towards smaller relative risk reductions with increasing age in the primary prevention setting (although there were too few such older participants for reliable assessment in that group alone).
