“an overall trend”

These observations demonstrate an overall trend of increased UTS with increasing total number of fibers.

Period estimates from genes that lost rhythms in expression profiles are used here to illustrate an overall trend, rather than provide information on individual genes.

The line graphs showed an overall trend of falling first and then rising in individual prevalence rate of clinical symptom. 3.4 Nonlinear association between total duration of high-altitude exposure and clinical burden by RCS As demonstrated in Figure 3 , a clear U-shaped relationship was existed between total duration of high-altitude exposure and clinical burden.

Therefore, we performed a comprehensive correlation analysis using the following indices of treatment sensitivity and sought to obtain an overall trend: (i) the surviving fraction at all examined dose points, except 5 μM cisplatin (i.e., 2, 4, 6, and 8 Gy for X-rays, 1, 2, 3, and 4 Gy for carbon ions, and 0.2 and 1 μM for cisplatin).

Sleep disturbances were reported by 54% to 65% of women in the five countries, vaginal dryness was experienced by 32% to 45%, and sexual dysfunction was reported by 13% to 24%. In terms of women’s current experience of menopausal symptoms, the prevalence of hot flushes showed an overall trend of diminishing with age; however, women in France exhibited a higher prevalence of hot flushes at ages 55 to 64 years compared with ages 45 to 54 years ( Figure 2(a) ).

In biomarker prediction, an overall trend towards higher performance with larger models was also observed 10 .

We used a cumulative logistic random-effects model to test for an overall trend and additionally tested if the smear results were significantly different between the different time points with the Wilcoxon signed-rank test (for paired samples).

Although a significant variability within patients with regard to the relative expression of HPRT both in normal and malignant tissues has been observed, an overall trend showing upregulation of HPRT in cancerous tissues has been reported.

The genes GmWOX11 and GmWOX29 showed an overall trend towards higher expression under cold conditions, with the exception of the 6 h time point.

It is not known whether increased c-di-GMP levels constitute a necessary or sufficient condition for surface commitment: That increased c-di-GMP correlates with increased tendency for biofilm formation seems to be an overall trend that holds true, but there have also been many observed exceptions to this model, especially at the single-cell level.

Here again, this plot alone led to an overall trend for a decrease in the high wood density group (−0.12 [−0.30, 0.04] % y −1 ).

Additionally, the Kaplan-Meier survival curve based on cumulative IC scores classification in this study showed an overall trend that the lower the cumulative IC scores were, the higher the CMM risk was.

A wider range exists in inter-slide correlations, with an overall trend toward antibody predominance in plasma.

In addition, an overall trend of decreased mRNAs and increased proteins is not reasonable.

When we compared the effects of treatment zones in the development of myopia, we noted that there was an overall trend toward more severe myopia in eyes treated closer to the posterior pole (zone 1 vs. zone 2), which varies from a previous report where no difference in myopia severity was noted between zone 1 and posterior zone 2 ROP [ 25 ].

An overall trend for better response was observed for patients treated for more than three cycles.

Specifically, CsMYB28 exhibited an overall trend of up‐regulated expression in response to time after inoculation on the first leaf, except for 24 h after inoculation (Figure 2b ).

There is an overall trend of reduction in genetic diversity for most invasive plant species during introduction ( Dlugosch and Parker, 2008 ), although there have been rare cases of successful invaders that have shown higher levels of within population genetic diversity in the introduced range than in the native range ( Novak and Mack, 1993 ; Genton et al., 2005 ).

Our results matched with those of the study by Abdel-Ghaffar et al., who reported that compared to the placebo group, the intranasal ketamine and fentanyl groups had significantly lower visual analog scale (VAS) scores in the first four hours, with an overall trend toward lower values at all time periods [ 14 ].

Moreover, even for the rest of the 441 genes that did not cross the twofold threshold, we observed an overall trend of upshift, which suggests that inefficient establishment of H3K9me2 contributed to inefficient silencing of these genes.

The data have indicated an overall trend of increased mortalities associated with emerging NCDs in the urban population, who were twice more likely to die from these diseases than those from rural areas.

There was significant seasonal variation with the highest prescribing rates in the summer months and the lowest rates in the winter, and an overall trend of increasing prescribing over the study period.

While there seems to be an overall trend of increasing SWC corresponding with higher rates of open fractures and fractures requiring repeat procedures and staged fixation involving an external fixator, this trend is disrupted for the latter 2 categories, with fractures within Class II demonstrating the highest rates of both fractures requiring repeat procedures and staged fixation.

Due to reimbursement issues, there is an overall trend to higher hospitalization rates with shorter durations in Germany.

Compressive Strength Figure 4 a demonstrates that, under the standard-curing conditions, throughout the observed erosion cycles, the compressive strength of the mortar specimens exhibited an overall trend of increasing at first and then decreasing with the rise in the number of erosion cycles.
