“showed a trend”

The age of arrival showed a trend toward younger age groups with 93% under the age of 45 years and 44% under the age of 18.

Quality of life For all the dimensions of quality of life (dyspnea, fatigue, emotions, mastery), all participants showed a trend towards better quality of life.

The survival curves for the AF end-point were superimposed, whereas the HF component showed a trend favouring SafeR.

In contrast, 6 of the 11 OS showed significant mortality reduction with the use of aPC; the remaining 5 studies showed a trend towards better lower mortality rate in aPC group.

After 20 months of pirfenidone therapy, the patient was less symptomatic with improved effort tolerance and lung function showed a trend towards improvement (FVC 58% and DLCO 54% predicted) [Ref Table 1 and Figure 1 ].

The regulation of bmpr1a showed a trend to the wild type value but this was not significant in the qPCR analysis.

DAI is indicative of the severity of intestinal damage and mice treated with acteoside showed a trend towards a reduction in the severity of clinical symptoms caused by MTX.

As shown in Figure 4 , migration of CFSE-labeled donor B cells into recipient spleens showed a trend to being reduced in MAb 5261-muIg-treated animals, indicating that this anti-CXCL13 specific antibody impedes B cell homing to a secondary lymphoid organ.

Although, not statistically significant, their results showed a trend toward increased success rates and faster resolution of the lesion in the 3 million IU/ml group.

In stark opposition, in the subjective context BOLD activity showed a trend to be lower for free trials in these five ROIs.

To support the interpretation of these results, we used graph theoretical concepts to examine the changes occurring in the functional organization of the sensorimotor network across ages, and found that all segregation and integration measures showed a trend similar to SL MEAN : during the first year of life these properties remained almost unchanged, whereas they increased significantly across groups afterwards, as assessed by a marked increase of both segregation parameters ( C and E loc ), by a tendency of L to decrease, and by a clear increase of E glob across age groups.

This observation is underlined by two findings: (i) residual PlsEtn in RCDP fibroblasts showed a trend toward increased proportions of AA at its sn -2 position; and (ii) in comparison to control fibroblasts or wild type brains, AA-containing PE species were strongly elevated in RCDP fibroblasts as well as in gray matter from Gnpat knockout brains, while DHA-containing PE largely remained the same.

1a ) and showed a trend to a decreased recall of the task (Fig. 1b ).

The EGR1 gene, also associated with NF-kB, showed a trend toward activated expression (Fig. 5 ).

Results The results showed a trend toward an increase in values of body composition and physical performance with the advance of age.

Similarly, mRNA levels of fetal hepatic PEPCK‐C showed a trend to increase from the most immature animals to the near‐term animals (Fig. 2 A); however, it did not reach statistical significance.

Level of Asp was significantly increased in GC and BC patients after surgery, and Ala level showed a trend of increase in BC patients after tumor removal (Figure 2 C and Additional file 7 ).

However, IGF-1R showed a trend towards more downregulation in the endocrine-treated group; IGF-1R was downregulated in 4/13 tumors and upregulated in 1/13 tumors.

When the CM patients were analyzed separately, the point estimate showed a trend toward improved outcome in the early arm. 105 , 106 A small study of CM patients in Botswana (n=27) compared early ART (within 7 days) with deferred ART (after 28 days), using intravenous amphotericin B as antifungal treatment.

This SNP showed a trend toward susceptibility to the risk of renal cell carcinoma. 25 This amino acid substitution might change mRNA stability or protein function, thereby influencing miRNA expression profiles to modify the CRC carcinogenesis.

Former patients showed a trend toward higher SNVs compared to latter patients, although not reaching statistical significance.

Our next series of experiments showed a trend towards lower O 2 consumption in MLC/mIGF-1 animals ( Table 1 ).

Although the mcrA copy number showed a trend for an increase in all rice genotypes under the influence of [CO 2 ] elevation, the rate of increase differed among the genotypes (a significant [CO 2 ] × rice genotype interaction, p < 0.01).

Though haplotype G AGC AAAA showed a trend towards increased risk of PD in the Italian material when the materials were analyzed individually, this haplotype decreased the risk of PD in meta-analysis (Table 3 , Figure 2 A).

One of the previous studies also performed early blood sampling with a median time window of 3 hours and showed a trend to increased NK cells in patients who developed an infection. 4 The transient increase in NK cells in patients with PSI was followed by a drop in all circulating lymphocyte subsets.
