“showed a trend”

Initial trials in NETs showed a trend to a better outcome for patients with pNETs treated with cytotoxic drugs over patients with carcinoid tumors [ 22 ].

This study showed a trend towards a significant increase in fat mass and blood glucose in the probiotic group after eight weeks of probiotic supplementation and six weeks after discontinuation compared with the end of the four-week acclimatisation period.

tabacum , CER6 showed a trend towards increased expression levels in PVY and CMV-infected leaves and reduced levels in TMV and PepMV-infected leaves.

These results are in agreement with data previously reported by Böhm et al, who showed a trend toward increasing MAU with increasing HR in patients with hypertension and/or cardiovascular disease. 14 , 22 , 23 Similarly, Hillis et al 15 noted an increasing risk of microvascular complications, including nephropathy, with increasing HR in patients with type 2 diabetes.

In addition, the SNPs TNFSF13B rs12428930 and rs12583006, and the haplotype TNFSF13B rs12428930∼rs12583006 (Figure 3 B) showed a trend of association with HBV-RS.

In patients with IgAN, the mRNA expression of TACI and BCMA in B-lymphocytes showed a trend of upregulation, although statistical significance was not reached (BCMA: 0.88 ± 0.90 vs 0.53 ± 0.39, P = 0.107, Figure 4 B; TACI: 1.70 ± 1.20 vs 1.26 ± 0.78, P = 0.137, Figure 4 C).

Mice infused with ISO for 3 days showed a trend towards increased cardiac function and heart rate, but the difference from control animals infused with saline was not statistically significant ( Fig. 3 F–G).

Tsuang YH 2 found that SCs showed a trend to survive without damage under an intensity of 300 mW/cm 2 ultrasound.

Large HDL particles showed a trend of increase during SR ( P before correction for multiple testing <0.05, not significant after correction).

These two SNPs showed a trend to association with HCMV infection after Bonferroni’s correction for multiple testing ( Pc = 0.063).

( 32 ) A study conducted in 10 asthmatic subjects showed a trend towards a reduced bronchodilator response at the lower flow rate, even if this did not reach statistical significance.

5 , brain tumors in the combination treatment group were non-visualized and an addition of PP2 to TMZ showed a trend toward volume decrease.

Further, individual skipping of exon 5 showed a trend of decreasing under OS, although this decrease was not statistically significant ( Fig 3B ).

Mucosal vaccination showed a trend towards higher titres compared to the parenteral vaccination.

Our evaluation of mRNA expression in the colons of mice treated with α-IL-25 showed a trend toward increased inflammatory cytokines in the Th17 pathway ( il-17a, il-22, and il-23p19 ).

Consistent with this suggestion, the mouse model did not show an equivalent fibre shift but showed a trend towards a reduction in the expression of all MHCs.

With regard to the graft site, only a history of additional operations showed a trend towards influencing increase in the size of the corresponding NAC.

In the current study, reduction of percentage peak uptake in the segments of accelerated sestamibi clearance showed a trend of being higher than that in normal perfusion segments.

Serum CRP and fecal calprotectin both showed a trend towards higher concentrations in the inflamed population compared to uninflamed and healthy controls (CRP data only for the latter group), but the variability was considerable and no statistically significant differences were observed.

Another noteworthy finding was that both the NAE and the non-native (NK) speakers showed a trend toward a greater enhancement of coda voicing contrast in the phonologically focused (PH-FOC) than in the lexically focused (LEX-FOC) condition consistent with findings of previous studies (e.g., de Jong and Zawaydeh, 2002 ; de Jong, 2004 ).

Blood cadmium concentrations of all subjects showed a trend of a statistically significant increase with increased monthly gejang intake; the group with a monthly intake of 200 cm 3 or less did not have a clinically significant increase in cadmium concentration.

The analysis showed a trend over time in improved accuracy, which became statistically significant only at the 15–20-month time point.

Vitamin treatment showed a trend toward a reduction of gastric cancer mortality which was not statistically significant (HR 0.55, 95 % CI 0.29–1.03) and garlic treatment did not affect gastric cancer mortality [ 9 •].

aMCI showed a trend toward decreased FC with fusiform gyrus, precuneus, cuneus, angular gyrus, thalamus, temporal lobe, and cerebellum.

The presence of an ESR1 mutation in the plasma also showed a trend towards enrichment in patients with luminal A status determined by PAM50 algorithm 22 , as 41.4% of patients with PAM50 defined luminal A tumours had ESR1 mutations compared with 31.8% of patients with luminal B tumours ( Table 1 and Supplementary Table 1 ).
