The phrase "a concordant effect" is correct and usable in written English.
It can be used to describe an outcome or result that is in agreement or harmony with something else.
Example: "The new policy had a concordant effect on employee morale, leading to increased productivity."
Alternatives: "a harmonious effect" or "a consistent effect".
Yet, not all studies could link improvements in clinical outcome to a concordant effect on TNF-α modulation [ 116].
Thus, a treatment effect on TTP/PFS translated into a concordant effect on OS, but with attenuated effect size.
However, a concordant effect on mRNA and protein stimulation with both cytokines was demonstrated for the α isoform of IL-32.
Fourteen SNP CpG associations had a raw p value < 0.05, and seven had a q value < 0.05, including four having a concordant effect sign with results obtained in blood (Additional file 10).
Of the three SNPs investigated with severe CP, one SNP (NPY locus: rs2521634) was nominally associated with severe CP in the Health ABC Study ORR = 1.64; 95% CI = 1.01 2.65; P = 0.046), with a concordant effect direction and magnitude as in ARIC (Table 3).
Although no signals met genome-wide significance criteria, we found that three of these loci (NPY, NCR2 and EMR1) had concordant effect direction in a replication sample, with NPY being nominally associated with severe CP.
Highly concordant effect estimates were observed in a GCTA joint model (Table 1), further highlighting the utility of this methodology.
Three of these loci had concordant effect size and direction in an independent sample of 656 adult EA participants of the Health, Aging, and Body Composition (Health ABC) Study.
Therefore, in the only study where divergent selection lines for mating system have been used in a mammal, sexual selection appears to confer a long-term fitness benefits to males and females, suggesting concordant effect on sexual and nonsexual traits.
Noteworthy, two of the six prioritized loci (NPY and NCR2) showed concordant effect estimates for all examined 'high periodontal pathogen colonization' traits in a previous GWAS (17), an observation that parallels the pathogenic oral microbial shift that is characteristic of periodontitis (8).
Microclimate had no concordant effect.
