“showed a trend”

Consistently with existing literature indicating a preference for a monotone diet in elders, the evaluation of the variety of diet in our study showed a trend in the whole sample of subjects in training on a poor quality diet, just based on few repetitive foods.

Female participants, low SES, negative skin prick test to food and no asthma diagnosis at age 1 showed a trend towards drop out.

The 6nmol dose showed a trend to be superior to the 3nmol dose, albeit tested in a sub-optimal regimen.

The differences showed a trend but were not statistically significant.

Nevertheless, the qRT-PCR comparisons between the different genotypes showed a trend in boi and ihog expression response to Dl overexpression that explains the cooperation between the miR-7 and Dl signalling, since there is the concomitant downregulation of the two functionally redundant Hh receptor genes, ihog and boi .

With the exception of Belgium and Austria, all Group One countries maintained or showed a trend to increasing overall DD rates 2000–2010.

Higher Mcm-2 PIs showed a trend to poorer survival, but statistical significance was not achieved.

While January 2006 was the only statistically significant cut-off point in our model, visually the change in rate appeared slightly before that and all cut-off dates between January 2005 and June 2006 showed a trend for a lower PTX rates.

MMP-7 mRNA showed no significant increase (fold change) in PBEC(A) for any of the stimulations [IL-9 stimulated: mean 1.7 (SD 1.4); IL-9/IL-13 combination: mean 2.2 (SD 2.0); IL-13 stimulation: mean 2.6 (SD 3.2)] however all stimulations showed a trend for increase ( Figure 5B ).

Interestingly, supplementation of K68 and FVF to HFFD groups showed a trend in decreasing the blood glucose, insulin, and HOMA-IR values at week 6.

The number of outliers showed a trend to be higher when the CD4 T cell count was expressed in absolute count (16/258 = 6.2%) than when it was given in percentage (10/258 = 3.9%), although the difference was not statistically significant (P = 0.22 by Student t test).

In contrast, female mice chronically exposed to UVB and treated topically with vitamin E alone showed a trend towards increased tumor growth rate and exhibited increased levels of overall DNA damage, cutaneous proliferation, and angiogenesis compared to vehicle-treated mice.

The operation time tended to be shorter, an earlier discharge from hospital was possible and the treatment showed a trend to be completed faster.

Three findings from our data support this hypothesis: 1) DRB1*15 is associated with OCB+; 2) the combination of non-HLA markers associated with MS susceptibility also showed a trend for association with the presence of OCB as suggested by our wGRS, although most of its predictive power comes from DRB1*15; 3) after meta-analysis of the Italian best associated markers with two independent data-sets, we found a non-HLA SNP on chromosome 6 that almost reached GWAS significance.

Treatment with D-ribose resulted in no significant change in body weight but showed a trend towards a decrease in weights.

Three mutants: R154K, T110N, and L6I, also showed a trend of reduced fitness, although not significantly different from the prototype (95% CI p>0.05).

On the other hand, the BLNAR strains showed a trend toward improved susceptibility after phase 2, when the number of BLNAR strains decreased and the MIC 90 value of each β-lactam antimicrobial agent decreased from one half to one fourth between phase 2 and phase 3.

Clinical and microbiological responses, stratified by baseline MRSA susceptibility, suggested that patients infected with MRSA of higher daptomycin MIC showed a trend of lower clinical success with a P value of 0.052 by Cochran–Armitage test.

Most inflammatory cytokines showed a trend of increased expression in endotoxemia and reduction in the presence of MAT.Ang-1.

Although statistical significance was not achieved, T 4 levels also showed a trend for a reduction following treatment ( Figure 7 B, ii).

It also showed that asthmatics with reflux showed a trend for a higher response to the other vagal tests and lower spirometry values in response to esophageal acid perfusion compared to those without reflux.

As the phylogenetic clustering showed a trend to form “genus”-groups we performed the taxon delimitation analyses using the five genera Anastrepha (including T . curvicauda ), Bactrocera , Ceratitis , Dacus , and Rhagoletis .

Additionally, H460 IID10 had an increased mean cell volume and showed a trend towards decreased plating efficiency as well as decreased colony radius, possibly due to the detachment of cells from the colonies.

4 ), the heterogeneity was evident (χ 2 = 26.34, Ι 2 = 77.2%, P <0.001).Subgroup analysis showed a trend that elevated HIF-1α levels were associated with vascular invasion in HCC patients with preoperative adjuvant antitumor therapy [OR = 2.32 (95% CI:1.14, 4.74)].

Despite failing to reach a statistically significant level, patients with STR showed a trend towards better postoperative visual improvement compared to patients with GTR.
