“showed a trend”

In fact, one of the studies showed a trend toward higher incidence.[ 4 ] However, a short course of postprocedure prophylactic antibiotic may be used on surgeon's personal experience and discretion.

This finding was already suggested by previous meta-analyses [ 7 , 8 , 25 ] but they were challenged by a recent large randomized controlled trial that concluded that the intra-aortic balloon pump was not useful in this context even if it showed a trend toward improved clinically relevant outcomes (major morbidity: 22 (40%) in the intra-aortic balloon pump group versus 17 (31%) in the control group, odds ratio =1.49 (0.68 to 3.33), P = 0.3, operative mortality: 4 (7.3%) in the intra-aortic balloon pump group versus 8 (14%) in the control group, odds ratio = 0.46 (0.13 to 1.43), P = 0.2).

Although danirixin showed a trend for improved respiratory and health status in patients with COPD ( 7 ), the absence of a clear efficacy benefit has been confirmed in a larger clinical trial ( 13 ).

Hormone therapy showed a trend for superior OS rate.

Notably, the EST group showed a trend toward greater gains in ADL scores (Figure 1C,D,H ). 2.

In the presence of Ca 2+ , incubation in high K + showed a trend toward attenuating the drop in PV pH after induction with zaprinast and a significant attenuation following ionomycin induction.

japonicus showed a trend of first increasing and then decreasing.

paracasei JY062 to Caco-2 cells showed a trend of gradually increasing and then decreasing.

Since NK_NKG7 showed a trend toward poorer overall survival (Fig. 5 D), it may contribute to immune tolerance within the liver metastatic TME by recruiting Tregs, potentially promoting immune evasion and leading to poorer cancer survival outcomes.

In a study by Cho et al.[ 23 ], ADHD subjects with the T allele (A/T or T/T genotypes) of the -3081 polymorphism showed a trend of higher mean score in response time variability of the CPT than those with the A/A genotype, while no differences were found between genotypes of G1287A polymorphism in the CPT performance measures.

On subgroup analysis, patients with tumors that had PD-L1 high expression (CPS ≤ 25%) showed a trend of potential benefit, with an HR of 0.59 (95% CI, 0.28–1.22) [ 35 ].

Similarly, the MDA content showed a trend of first increasing and then decreasing ( Figure 4 b), and the nisin treatment could significantly reduce the MDA content of the fresh-cut pumpkins, indicating that nisin treatment could inhibit the occurrence of membrane lipid peroxidation.

Neither adherence to medication nor changes were recorded in any study, although unmedicated participants who undertook IRT showed a trend towards a greater reduction in SBP than their medicated counterparts; mean difference −10.18 mmHg (−15.50 to −4.86) medicated versus −5.86 mmHg (−9.19 to −2.54) unmedicated.

Both increasing frailty and multi-morbidity showed a trend to better target attainment, but those with the highest frailty and most co-morbidities had wide confidence intervals, presumably due to small numbers.

At 6 months follow-up, cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and MIBI-SPECT showed a trend towards the improved LVEF as compared to the placebo group, accompanied by a significant reduction in the perfusion defect and infarct size.

Distribution by age showed a trend toward an increase in the late teens.

In our cohort, WPOI-5 showed a trend toward association with higher ENE prevalence, but this was not statistically significant and did not relate to the extent of ENE measured in millimeters, suggesting that invasive pattern alone was not sufficient as a stand-alone predictor of ENE in this cohort.

On the other hand, higher Cx43 in the parietal cortex (protein levels) and globus pallidus (puncta) showed a trend towards correlation with aggression (Table 1 ).

In agreement with previous findings ( Ahnert-Hilger et al., 1996 ; Grosse et al., 1999 ; Osen-Sand et al., 1996 ), we find that TeNT expression did not affect neurite length of WT neurons, but showed a trend toward shorter neurites in RPH3A KO neurons.

When the fat level was the same, the activities of ALT, AST, and LDH showed a trend of decreasing first and then increasing slowly with the increase in carnitine levels.

The change in the level of disialo-glycans showed a trend similar to that of total N-glycans during aging.

As the proportion of SDBS/MWCNTs increased from 0.26 to 0.34, the resistance value showed a trend of decreasing at first and then increasing.

This analysis showed that the NIHSS score of subjects who were started on anticoagulation during the ultraearly epoch (after 0–4 days) did not differ significantly from those during other epochs, and actually showed a trend toward a more-severe deficit as indicated by a higher admission NIHSS score.

We could not demonstrate a clear polarisation of the systemic cytokine levels towards Th2 in CRC, as our CRC patients showed a trend for increased levels of both Th2 (IL-4) and Th1 (IL-12 and IFN- γ ) cytokines.

Moreover, after TRPM7 was disrupted, it showed a trend consistent with OIP5-AS1 and CD147 , that is, the level of apoptosis was significantly increased, which was confirmed by apoptosis flow cytometry and western blot ( Figures 6I–L ). 3.7 OIP5-AS1/CD147/TRPM7 axis promotes apoptosis by impairing PI3K-Akt signaling Notably, the western blot results showed that the p-AKT protein level was significantly reduced, but there was no significant difference in AKT protein expression after si-OIP5-AS1 both in AGS and MKN-45 cells.
