Kaplan-Meier survival curves also showed a trend toward poorer prognosis for patients with high FANCD2 expression compared to those with low expression, in terms of both the risk of recurrence ( Figure 1(b , d )) and death ( Figure 2(d )).

Moreover, inverse translation studies in mice also showed a trend to lower levels Cd163 ‐PBL in diet induced mildly hypercholesterolaemic animals, and Cd163 ‐expression was highly up‐regulated in mice lacking Lrp5 , suggesting a direct relationship between high LRP5 and low CD163 levels in macrophages of FH patients.

As the spacing increased, the groups with 2, 4, and 6 mm spaces between the upper boundary of the bone cement and the vertebral body's upper endplate showed a trend of gradual increase in the maximum stresses under the seven loading conditions. 3.4 Observation of the Maximum Displacement of the L1 Vertebra in Each Model The maximum displacements of the L1 vertebrae of the four models are shown in Table 4 and Figure 10 .

Comparison of LD, SLD, and motor issue prevalence in the ITC and non‐ITC populations showed a trend towards higher rates of developmental issues in the non‐ITC population.

eubayanus hybrids) Group 1 strains obtained from different brewing processes and studied by aCGH analysis, showed a trend to lose the S. cerevisiae genome fraction [ 22 ].

We also found that CPF, an acetylcholinesterase (AChE) inhibitor, showed a trend to suppress the differentiation of oligodendrocytes in the triple-Tg zebrafish.

In phase II KEYNOTE-100 study, patients with OCCC showed a trend toward greater benefits from pembrolizumab (n=19, ORR=15.8%, 95% CI: 3.4% to 39.6%). 15 In phase III study of platinum-resistant OC, patients with OCCC experienced longer OS with nivolumab compared with chemotherapy (gemcitabine or pegylated liposomal doxorubicin) (HR: 0.78; 95% CI: 0.46 to 1.32).

The orthopaedic ward and integrated care with geriatrician showed a trend in favour of showing the lowest in-hospital mortality, lowest length of stay, and lowest mean time to surgery. 3 This vision of orthogeriatric care is now being promoted by the Fragility Fracture Network (FFN), globally focusing on the optimal multidisciplinary management of the patients with a fragility fracture.

Although there was no significant difference between the two responses, the expressions of IL-6, TNF-α, IFN-α, and IFN-γ showed a trend towards lower levels in the non- or hypo-responders relative to that in the high responders (as shown in Table 1 ).

The second quantile group (Q2) and the third quantile group (Q3) showed no significant difference in the risk of disease compared with Q1 but showed a trend of decreasing risk as the quantile group increased (the trend P values were both <0.05).

For patients without on-going infection, markers of possible PSH at 3 weeks (in the form of tachycardia, hypertension or fever) showed a trend towards association with outcome at 1 year.

And the ASDR of female patients showed a trend of “rising-declining-rising” during 1990–2019, with an overall AAPC of −0.08% (95% CI: −0.40%–0.25%).

First, ICIs plus chemotherapy showed a trend toward better outcomes in terms of PFS, OS, and pCR, especially for the PD-L1 positive population.

They were significantly faster and showed a trend for higher accuracy compared to nonmusicians, which is in line with studies on increased pitch sensitivity for musicians in linguistic tasks ( Alexander et al., 2005 , Deguchi et al., 2012 , Maess et al., 2001 , Magne et al., 2006 , Schön et al., 2004 ).

Interestingly, among the three or four mutation viruses, this virus elicited the highest levels of MCP-1, MCP-3 and IL-18 and showed a trend towards production of higher numbers of CD8 + T cells, possibly underlying its superior protective efficacy.

In addition, HBV-infected HepG2 NTCP cells transfected with siHBc and siHBs both showed a trend of HBeAg and HBsAg recovery at day 21.

Recent medical visits showed a trend toward increased risk but did not reach conventional significance levels (OR = 1.314, p = 0.072). 4.4 Subgroup Analysis Results 4.4.1 Subgroup Analysis by Gender Table 3 presents the results of the logistic regression analysis stratified by gender.

[ 42 ] showed a trend towards reduced thyroid-stimulating hormone levels with physical activity, although it was not statistically significant.

The GLMM revealed no statistically significant differences compared to other age/sex classes; however, non-lactating animals showed a trend of higher call rates for high-amplitude calls (3.21 ± 2.29 calls h −1 ) and lower rates of low-amplitude calls (0.80 ± 1.15 calls h −1 ) compared to lactating females with calves.

The same results were observed for the CEA values that showed a trend of reduction although not statistically significant.

The expression levels of PRKAR1A and QPCT were significantly higher in ALS than in healthy controls, whereas TMEM71 showed a trend toward higher expression in ALS ( Fig. 6b ).

A meta-analysis of nine observational studies (6 cohort, and 3 case-control), however, showed a trend but not a significant association between metformin and the risk of developing pancreatic cancer [48] , indicating a significant heterogeneity in clinical studies on the relationship between metformin use and pancreatic cancer risk.

Aged Casp2 −/− BM cells also showed a trend of higher erythroid progenitor populations ( Figure 3c ) compared with aged WT BM cells.

From 2004 to 2023, a total of 9,566 ultrasound-related articles were published, and the number of literature showed a trend of steady growth from year to year.
