Those who carried a genotype with the variant C at rs56156320 showed a trend for higher FSCN1 expression, compared with the wild-type homozygous genotypes ( p < 0.05, Fig. 1 ).

In addition, they showed a trend effect for up-regulation of genes implicated in GABA synthesis: GLS (p = 0.050) and GAD1 (p = 0.050) and significant down-regulation of ABAT (p = 0.030) that plays a role in GABA metabolism.

Furthermore, out of the suggested loci found to be promising candidates for the antidepressant response in clinical applications after validation 34 , multiple SNPs at ABCB1, BDNF, CYP2C19, SLC6A2, CYP2D6 , and HTR2A showed a trend for influencing antidepressant response at a nominal significance in our study ( P < 0.05) (Table S17 ).

Hardness, gumminess and chewiness of samples showed a trend of increasing initially during the first 3 or 5 d, with subsequent slowly fluctuating or increasing (p<0.05).

Selection treatment showed a trend in affecting the priming sensitivity ( X 2 = 5.985, Df = 2, p = 0.050), with the primed-evolved pathogen exhibiting a trend (p = 0.058) toward higher priming sensitivity compared to the ancestral pathogen ( Fig 4A ).

RT-qPCR analysis showed a trend for increased miR-141 expression and decreased FOXC1 expression in HGC27 cells in response to si-LINC00242 transfection ( p < 0.05) (Fig. 3 k).

Conversely, the relative contents of sweet amino acids showed a trend of decreasing and then increasing ( p < 0.05).

Behavioral performance between A-substages Although some behavioral parameters showed a trend of performance decline with declining of A-substages, only the HR differed significantly between A1 and A2 ( p < .05; dz = 0.37) and between A1 and A3 ( p < .05, dz = 0.79).

Compared to the negative control, the fluorescent intensity of activated caspase-3 in A549 cells showed a trend of enhancing (15.50 ± 0.89 vs 15.50 ± 0.89 at 15 μM, p > 0.05; 18.43 ± 1.19 vs 15.50 ± 0.89 at 30 μM, p < 0.05; 22.90 ± 1.54 vs 15.50 ± 0.89 at 75 μM, p < 0.01; 42.83 ± 3.15 vs 15.50 ± 0.89 at 300 μM, p < 0.01) (Figures 6 A and 6 B).

The comparison between tumors ≤2 cm and those measuring between 2.1 and 4.0 cm showed a trend toward statistical significance (p = 0.05), whereas no significant difference was observed between the 2.1–4.0 cm and >4.0 cm groups (p = 0.13).

The group supplemented with Astragalus dregs showed a trend towards improved ADG and ADFI and reduced diarrhoea rates ( p > 0.05).

The requirement for a dental review showed a trend towards a longer time from referral to treatment initiation ( p > 0.05, Figure 2 b).

Of those VIP-expressing neurons, Nlgn3 mRNA expression levels showed a trend to increase in mutant mice compared to WT (27.1 ± 1.1 versus 30.4 ± 1.2 mRNA copies per cell; n = 623 and 449 cells; WT and mutant mice respectively; p = 0.05; t = 1.9, df = 1070 Figure 6 (C10)). 3.5.1.

Change in therapeutic strategy in cases of unfavorable results led to 50.0% restoration or symptom control and showed a trend towards favorable outcome ( p = 0.05).

While E2 levels in the Ctr-T group showed a trend toward lower levels than the Sham group, this difference was not statistically significant ( P > 0.05).

The age-standardized incidence rate showed a trend of increasing and decreasing, while AAPC was 5.2% (95% CI 4.2–6.2, p <.05) which showed overall increasing trend (Fig. 2 ).
