“an apparent trend”

However, there is an apparent trend of performance loss as the number of cells is decreased.

Figures Descriptive analysis revealed an apparent trend wherein individuals with serum vitamin D3 levels in the range of 30–35 ng/mL tended to attain final visual acuity (AVf) scores between 0.8 and 1.0.

The results of both CGGA and TCGA cohorts consistently showed a significant positive correlation between IKBIP expression and WHO grade, except for comparison between WHO II and WHO III in CGGA, which also showed an apparent trend ( Figure 1a and e ).

Chloride net flux rates The two‐way ANOVA did not detect a significant temperature effect on chloride net fluxes of Rio Negro fish ( F 1,28 = 3.89, p = 0.058), despite an apparent trend towards more negative J Cl net as temperature increased (Figure 3a ).

In addition, WRTDS includes a built-in “flow-normalization” algorithm to remove the noise of natural hydrologic variability, which can help reveal water-quality changes related to management actions. In rivers, streamflow and water-quality concentrations are often correlated, and thus a sequence of wet or dry years may induce an apparent trend that reverses direction once conditions return to normal.

Conceptually, if an interaction between PK and a known risk factor of OS was identified, this could translate into an indirect relationship between PK and OS, the resultant being an apparent trend of E‐R when this is explored in a simplified framework, such as KM plots.

An apparent trend in the evolution of the CHIKV IOL since its emergence in 2004 is its incremental, sequential increase in fitness for transmission by A. albopictus .

Deep biosphere and allochthonous sources of DNA Overall, microbial populations displayed an apparent trend reflecting the receding activity and slow death of microorganisms (Vuillemin et al . 2016 ) with a net decrease in cell abundance with depth (Fig. 2 ) during which the Bathyarchaeota and Chloroflexi became more abundant in the 16S datasets (Figs 3 and 5 ).

An apparent trend exists in the microbiota of people from industrialised nations, and it appears that these individuals have a higher abundance of Bacteroides , Bifidobacterium , Ruminococcus, Faecalibatcerium , Alistipies , Bilophila and Blautia [ 26 , 27 , 30 , 33 , 34 ].

In a post hoc analysis of the relationship between the number of exacerbations in the previous year with E max , there was an apparent trend of improving FEV 1 for patients with ≥ 3 exacerbations in the previous year.

The chi-square test for linear trend was applied to estimate the probability that observed changes in an apparent trend representing true differences rather than chance findings.

While not powered for statistical analysis, this study suggests an apparent trend of CHF patients tolerating NIV well during transport but being more likely to require intubation and inotropes at the receiving centre.

An apparent trend emerged with increasing biochar dosage, a virtually gradual decrease in density.

From this point of view, the development of a solvent-free variant of the Pechmann reaction is an apparent trend toward the synthesis of 4-arylcoumarins.

Even though statistically not significant, there was an apparent trend in Cab and HdrR strains which robustly responded to all color combinations, whereas the three additional inbred strains tested responded less well to blue/white and red/white color combinations.

Secondly, consistent with the air concentration at the sill position, there is an apparent trend of decreasing air concentration downstream of the PSB as the incoming Froude number ( Fr c ) increased.

Figure 16 presents an apparent trend for the percentage of H-bonded and free carbonyls in the B-GAP/DDI binder.

Although affective storytelling and arresting aesthetics remain central ( Somerville et al., 2021 ), there is an apparent trend toward more explicit conversations around biodiversity loss and anthropogenic causes of ecological change ( Aitchison, Aitchison & Devas, 2021 ).

There is also an apparent trend for increasing the percentage of falls as a cause of TICH as the age of patients advances.

However, an apparent trend was revealed by the results.

There was no evidence for deprivation group differences in lung cancer diagnosis at stages III/IV, in spite of an apparent trend towards lower frequency with increasing deprivation (p for trend=0.236) ( Table 3 ).

Conclusions A giant hiatal hernia is a rarely encountered entity with an apparent trend towards atypical presentations in elderly female patients.

3.3 Characterization of the microbiome of mealybugs To assess the bacterial community structure succession, the corresponding results revealed an apparent trend in the relative abundance of distinct bacterial taxa (Figure 3 b).

Importantly, we did not see compelling evidence of an association between effect size and study size for any of the meta-analyzed outcomes (an apparent trend for the outcome of any analgesia versus no analgesia when comparing Hispanic to non-Hispanic White patients is not significant, being based on just 4 studies, and is better explained as a regression leverage effect).

6 in Additional file 1 , there was an apparent trend towards decreased CAT score, increased BMI, and increased FEV 1 from randomisation to day 30 in the antibiotic group.
