“an apparent trend”

[ 25 ] found no relationship between adiponectin and SCORAD score in a group of 64 patients aged 1–46 years, but noticed an apparent trend toward low adiponectin content in severe eczema.

An apparent trend of enhanced spheroid formation in paclitaxel resistant cells compared to cisplatin resistant cells might result from increased pluripotent gene expression at early stage.

Despite an apparent trend in Figure 3 A,B for nifedipine being pulmonary selective in rat and human PA, its effects were not statistically different when compared under oxygen vs. hypoxic conditions. 4.

Moreover, gradual changes of V 1/2 can be observed from both groups of α 1D E32 1F and α 1D E29 1S channels, indicating an apparent trend of V 1/2 modulations in accordance to the number of glycines ( Fig. 2C ).

Another limitation of this method is an apparent trend towards prioritizing implementation research questions over discovery questions.

Note that although there was an apparent trend for ethanol to increase the frequency of sIPSCs in the Gabrb1 +/ L285R MSNs, it was not significant in this sample.

In contrast, despite an apparent trend, no significant difference in MCT1 expression was seen between low and high %GP4 lesions (Fig. 3b , Supplementary Table 5 ).

As it can be observed, there was an apparent trend regarding the addition of m -CNCs with both ε-caprolactone and δ-decalactone, where there was a maximum in Young’s modulus close to 1 wt% of m -CNC, and then this property fell and increased back at 5 wt%.

NMDS ordination showed an apparent trend that ASC plots clustered separately from EDC and STC plots along axis 1 in each season (Figure 7 ).

Especially with the small sample size for patients with poor glycemic control, it was difficult to determine statistical significance, although there was an apparent trend according to the level of glycemic control.

also described an apparent trend when comparing residents below and not below Canal St.: the former had stronger associations between location and both any new-onset and persistent new-onset respiratory symptoms [ 9 ].

Although there was an apparent trend that additional repetitions were associated with lower correctness ( Fig 11 left), it might have been caused by participants correctly stopping the additional repetitions when they felt confident in their answers.

Although known diversity is higher for Mancalla , there is an apparent trend towards decrease in size for more derived members of the clade, with the larger Miomancalla and Mancalla lucasi placed basally in the resultant topology ( Fig. 15 ).

Alpha and Beta Diversity Patterns At the taxonomic and phylogenetic level, the alpha diversity of bacterial communities (randomly selected 4,000 sequences per sample) did not show an apparent trend along the elevation gradient ( Figure 3 ), which is consistent with our previous results (454 data in Shen et al., 2013 ).

As shown in both groups, an apparent trend of reduced cell viability was observed at an increasing DOX concentration from 0.75 to 6 μM ( Figure 4A ).

This effect is less pronounced in the Future scenario owing to a proportional increase in biomass costs and an apparent trend to the optimal scale for system operation, as indicated by the minimum in production costs for the Corner-Point scenario at a scale of 50 km 2 .

Analysis by SDI regions An apparent trend emerged across SDI regions ( Table 2 ), where higher SDI levels were generally associated with lower HIV incidence.

In same EF groups, we could not find an apparent trend that patients with hypertension or diabetes mellitus had impaired diastolic function.

Regarding the results of ANOVA analyses, we can identify an apparent trend between NDVI and IR.

Each method is equally valuable in furthering our understanding of the fundamentals in protein folding within a lipid environment. While there is an apparent trend emerging for a preference for charged headgroups and lateral chain pressure ( table 1 ), it is not universal across the proteins studied so far.

A 2015 review evaluating AMR in BRD pathogens conducted by DeDonder and Apley concluded that a quantitative assessment was not possible, but that “following these reports chronologically shows an apparent trend of a decrease in susceptibility of the 3 major BRD pathogens...” [ 5 ].

The association between CD1a count and the NPI was also not significant ( P =0.486), but again the raw data showed an apparent trend towards a higher, or a worsening, NPI and lower CD1a density.

Although there was an apparent trend of decreasing positivity over time, the small sample size was a limiting factor to detect statistically significant differences.

An apparent trend in the decrease in PA has been also identified in a wide population study in the U.S.A., where across 18 years, obesity had increased by 8%, and regular PA decreased from 53% to 43% [ 38 ].

Furthermore, while much more data are necessary to fully populate the feature space, there is an apparent trend that a T O T E X M L of 6–7 m corresponds with optimal game performance.
