“showed a trend”

Patients without symptoms at dismissal were statistically not different between the groups but showed a trend towards less symptoms in groups I and II compared to group III.

Diagnostic accuracy of FENO of the different patient collectives A comparison of patients from general practice and pneumologists’ practice showed a trend towards slightly higher sensitivities around the cut-off point >40 ppb in the general practices; there were no remarkable differences related to specificity ( table 2 ).

Blackcaps returning in one or several years following initial capture showed a trend towards higher multilocus heterozygosities than the remaining population.

6B , CAT activity showed a trend similar to that of SOD activity, as both CAT and SOD activities decreased after exposure to the three ILs.

At 12 months, zQ175 cortex had higher levels of TGF-β dimer and showed a trend toward having more TGF-β monomer when compared to controls ( Figure 6 D).

Two metabolites, 2-methylhippuric acid and 5-acetylamino-6-amino-3-methyluracil, were markedly increased in COPD smokers compared to healthy non-smokers, and also showed a trend of increase in comparison with healthy smokers, with P values approaching significance.

However, in comparing low with high-adherers, the latter showed a trend for larger reductions in errors made in the Stroop Stepping Test—a measure that was best in discriminating between fallers and non-fallers in a cross-sectional study [ 25 ].

Second, CSB participants were generally more anxious, depressed, and impulsive and showed a trend for more obsessive-compulsive features.

Subgroup analysis stratified by size of polyps showed a trend toward an advantage for AOS, though without statistical significance ( P value = 0.055 for beads < 6 mm and 0.365 for beads ≥ 6 mm).

(Right intraparietal sulcus and supramarginal gyrus were more strongly correlated with latency in session 2 but did not survive correction for multiple comparisons; left dorsolateral prefrontal cortex, left putamen, right lingual gyrus and cerebellar vermis also showed a trend toward stronger association with latency but the change in r -value was not significant).

Although no other significant differences were observed between coproAb titers to bovine RVA, calves in G1 showed a trend toward lower RVA Ab titers than animals in G2 and G3 ( Fig. 1 ).

Therefore, as the degree of differentiation decreased, EpCAM showed a trend of increasing expression, and, as a result, significant difference was observed between EC tissue sections showing 3different degrees of cell differentiation (p < 0.05) ( Fig. 1C ).

Patients receiving immunosuppressant and biologic drugs showed a trend toward an increased risk of VTE (OR 5.6).

Interestingly, the use of another G9a inhibitor (BIX-01294) also showed a trend toward increased frataxin expression to a similar extent in FRDA lymphoblastoid cell lines.

By contrast, Heat shock protein 68 ( Hsp68 ), which is a gene of the stress-inducible HSP 70 group [ 21 ], showed a trend for downregulation at 12 h post-cohabitation in N W as well as in W W beetles, whereas W N beetles showed Hsp68 upregulation potentially as a direct result of wounding.

Green tea extract significantly increased plasma FRAP in the context of resistance training workouts after 14 days and showed a trend after 7 days ( 50 , 51 ).

In contrast, silencing each target gene showed a trend or statistical significance toward inhibition of migratory and invasive capacities in RBE cells.

Our data, which showed a trend toward increased numbers of CD83-positive DCs in tumor-free SLNs compared with tumor-containing SLNs, further support this conclusion, and similarly suggest that the maturation state of the DCs predicts the metastatic potential of the tumor.

Though treatment with Car also showed a trend towards suppression of MCL-1, this was not statistically significant.

IGLL5 mutants showed a trend towards reduced transcript levels as compared with wild type ( Supplementary Fig. 1c ).

Although VS9, VS10 and VS11 secretions showed a trend toward reduced neurites with application, the trends did not meet significance ( Fig. 2D ).

Notably, in several Western population-based studies, mutant BRAF was either strongly associated with clinicopathological characteristics such as older age and female gender or at least showed a trend toward such associations, while this was not the case in the present study 41 42 43 .

The level of APLP1β27 showed a trend towards decreased levels in a dose-dependent manner in response to treatment but it did not reach statistical significance for either of the doses (Fig. 4f ).

In this study, we showed a trend towards cost reduction in the MMHU arm, and hence a trend towards superiority.

Out of the various determinants (for corrected model: F = 1.255; p = 0.293), only receipt of outside treatment showed a trend towards decreasing the duration of hospital stay although this also could not achieve statistical significance ( F = 2.978; p = 0.09).
