“showed a trend”

The total antioxidant levels showed a trend to decrease from 1061.6 ± 500.6 μmol/L in colostrum to 724.7 ± 302.4 μmol/L after six months of study.

These observations were supported by SANS analysis that revealed the highest proportion of unimers and dimers around the optimal salt concentration, although the coexistent larger aggregates showed a trend of increasing size with salt concentration, consistent with the DLS data.

Interestingly and despite fewer normal P O 2 values, the study of PITKIN et al ,[ 5 ] also showed a trend towards increased difference between arterial and arterialized P O 2 with increasing mean P O 2 values.

2-methoxy phenol, and the lilac aldehydes B and C were not significantly different in males and females, but showed a trend to higher emission in males.

After adjusting for potential confounders, the risk of breathlessness and skin symptoms remained significantly increased, and the risk of both of these symptoms showed a trend suggesting exposure-response relation with increasing glass microfiber exposure level.

reported that formoterol in combination with tiotropium elicited a significantly faster onset of action than tiotropium alone (but not formoterol alone) according to change in FEV 1 10 min after inhalation (p = 0.016) and showed a trend for greater maximum bronchodilation according to measures of FEV 1 performed over 24 h ( 44 ).

The results showed a trend of increasing minimum skin dose when the days of bolus application were increased.

Expression of the chaperone hspa 8 showed a trend towards increased expression at 3 hours.

Interestingly, another study linking NEAT1 to paraspeckle formation also showed a trend of NEAT1 /paraspeckle induction with differentiation: in this case, the differentiation of myoblasts into myotubes is associated with a threefold up-regulation of NEAT1 and an increase in paraspeckle size and number ( Sunwoo et al., 2009 ).

At higher loading frequencies of 10 Hz (36000 cycles) and 20 Hz (72000 cycles), which resulted in significantly more loading cycles, RANKL/OPG ratio showed a trend of decrease compared to no flow controls but neither group resulted in significant differences (p > 0.05).

The STEP trial, which had planned to enroll 3,000 participants, was stopped and unblinded before enrollment was completed, as an interim analysis showed that the vaccine lacked efficacy and showed a trend for higher HIV-1 acquisition in vaccinated individuals that were seropositive for AdHu5 virus at the onset of vaccination.

We therefore explored the impact of each of these individual variables on mortality in our study cohort, and found that patients who reported higher total vitamin D intake showed a trend towards lower risk of death ( P trend=0.08).

Park et al (2002) earlier showed a trend towards higher mRNA levels with increasing numbers of ERCC1 -118 T alleles ( Park et al , 2002 ).

Using the log-rank test to determine the significance of lymphocyte infiltration for survival, only stromal ( P =0.0534) and intraepithelial ( P =0.0402) CD3-positive T cells showed a trend and significant correlation with DFS for stage III patients with optimal debulking, respectively.

This difference showed a trend but was not statistically significant ( P =0.08).

In addition, infarcted hearts of TSP-1- null mice showed a trend towards decreased phosphorylation of the intracellular effector of TGF-β 1 , Smad2.

5E ; Tukey's, p<0.01) and also showed a trend towards a decrease in AE vs.

This effect was dose dependent because administration with 250 ng/ml of chemerin showed a trend toward induction of insulin resistance, whereas 1 μg/ml of chemerin provoked a significant decrease in insulin-stimulated phosphorylation of Akt and GSK3α/β.

Some groups showed a trend in opposite direction: Turkish women of second generation smoked significantly more than ethnic Dutch women, while the first generation did not differ from ethnic Dutch.

The evaluation of individual studies showed a trend towards a direct association between salt intake and risk of cardiovascular disease in 10 cohorts, with significantly higher relative risk in six.

Immunoblotting with a pan-PDE4A antibody showed a trend in sleep-deprived hippocampal tissue towards an increase in a 125 kDa species, which is of a size expected for the long PDE4A5, PDE4A10 and PDE4A11 isoforms 23 ( Supplemental Fig.

43 The combined analysis from both trials performed by the Cochrane Group showed a trend towards for beneficial effect favoring the treated group. 45 A third placebo-controlled trial has been recently completed. 44 There was no difference between treatment groups in the primary and secondary outcome measures after a two-year follow-up period. 44 In conclusion, r-IGF-I is well tolerated but, although so far is the only agent other than riluzole to show on any ALS markers of disease progression, can not be considered beneficial for patients with ALS.

However, even these tissues showed a trend towards increased expression of the Chodl-002 isoform in SMA compared to control mice ( Figure 5C ).

However, the TNFα-induced GAG release was significantly reduced by TIMP-3 by approximately 52% (Figure 1c ), whereas TIMP-1 and TIMP-2 showed a trend to increase the TNFα-induced GAG release, although this effect was not significant.

Although exemestane showed a trend to inhibit aromatase activity 15 min after its application in both cell cultures, this inhibitory effect was reversed 6 h later.
