“an expected trend”

The increase was not significant, but an expected trend was seen.

Nationally, over 50% of speakers and participants were represented by institutions from the Eastern and Southern United States, an expected trend given Puerto Rico's geographic proximity to the East Coast, which facilitates strong and long-lasting research collaborations.

The values obtained for both the FIA and the GEI are generally well correlated and increase in an expected trend for Lewis acids bearing increasingly electron‐withdrawing groups (see Supporting Information).

Only age was defined as an independent predictor for poor knowledge, where older participants were more likely to have a poor level of knowledge of ECs, highlighting an expected trend as the younger population was generally thought to be more exposed to knowledge and behaviors related to vaping and smoking from their peers and social media [ 31 , 32 ].

The mean ingestion rates follow an expected trend with low ingestion rates associated with infants (who are largely shielded from soil and dust), the highest ingestion rates associated with toddlers, and a gradual tapering off in older aged children, for whom hand-to-mouth behavior is expected to decrease.

The TOF-based SNR gain showed an expected trend with BMI for both OSEM only and PSF reconstruction; however, due to the induced image noise by the low counting statistics, the benefit on TOF was not seen at count levels below 50%.

Furthermore, the results showed an expected trend of increase in intertemporal decision making at retest suggesting that intertemporal decision making benefited from repeated task exposure.

We also noted that as radiation dose increased, synergy generally decreased, an expected trend as when the radiation dose is more lethal there is less scope for the added benefit of starvation (Supplementary Fig.

As an example, the polydispersity of droplet sizes (excluding the first two droplets) decreased from 30 to 10% for increasing flow rates from 21.5 to 61.5 μL/min ( Figure 6 B), identifying an expected trend where higher flow rates produced more monodisperse droplet populations.

The results reveal an expected trend in which cells with a greater number of expressed genes typically display higher cumulative weights for the corresponding phenotype ( Fig 4B ).

In general, prostate tissues from mice in the same treatment group demonstrated an expected trend compared to control mice, however, with noticeable heterogeneity, particularly with respect to p-Akt/Akt in mice in the Gnetin 35 -Diet group ( Figure 4 A, right ) ( Supplementary Figure S1 ).

We observed a very strong promoter bias for peaks of H2AK119ub1 co-occurring with H3K4me3, an expected trend given that H3K4me3 is known to strongly associate with gene promoter (Fig. 2F ).

The primary outcome of all-cause mortality was reported by a national database with up to 17 years of follow-up, demonstrating an expected trend of worsened outcomes with incrementally higher LVEF range and significantly worse with LVEF >70%.

We can see higher PM 2.5 exposure or temperature was associated with worse chronic health in an expected trend, but the overlapping CIs in Figure 4 suggest that age is not always a significant factor to boost the effects of air pollution or temperature on multimorbidity at the life-course span.

However, we observed an expected trend of association of cholesterol levels among the three stenosis groups in this subgroup where highest levels of TC were observed in the ≥70% stenosis group, intermediate in the 30–69% group, and lowest in the <30% group ( Table 1 ).

We found an expected trend, where intensity of OLDN occupancy overall mimics mononucleosome occupancy over TSSs (Fig. 2 a-c; left plots), but over gene-distal DHSs, there was a slightly less clear trend (Fig. 2 a-c; right plots).

Because the distinction between RP, NP, and SP was determined based on progressive CD4 changes, individual CD4 slopes were dispersed in a continuum distribution where the difference between adjacent groups would not be significant but there would be an expected trend that produces significant differences between the extreme groups (RPs and SPs).

The results obtained through using more methods led to the statement: “the fusion of multiple technologies is an expected trend,” which can be interpreted as a necessity to develop systems that combine more technologies.

The results confirmed an expected trend in the effectiveness of the three dot samples, which correlated well with the increasing –NH 2 population on the dot surface from the sample −1 to the sample −3, and thus suggesting the dominating role of the charge status governing the interactions of the dots with bacterial cells.

Moving forward to the point labeled X2 in Figure 3 , the direct opposite witnessed at point X1 is depicted in that that threshold at 6 × 10 − 4 deviates from the norm while the threshold at 4 × 10 − 4 follows an expected trend.

, 2016 ) was probed in our study and we found an expected trend for balanced excitatory-inhibitory modulation in healthy control subjects.

That p(correct) decreases more rapidly for fast intervals is an expected trend because the temporal window for a correct response is narrower for short intervals.

Here we present an approach which is based on analyses of patterns of recent change, where the aim is to identify time series in which the most recent values deviate significantly from an expected trend, possibly indicating unexpected change.

This was an expected trend because the tandem cell was not optimized for the current matching point under indoor lighting conditions, resulting in a current mismatch between the two subcells that made up the tandem.

The older adult group shows distinctly lower average shear stiffness values, which is an expected trend in the aging brain [ 62 – 64 ].
