The phrase "and supporting the notion" is correct and usable in written English.
It can be used when you want to indicate that something reinforces or backs up a particular idea or belief.
Example: "The research findings are compelling, and supporting the notion that early intervention leads to better outcomes."
Alternatives: "and reinforcing the idea" or "and backing the concept".
Although the overall small-world characteristics were observed at both baseline and follow-up, a scan-point independent significant deficit of global integration was found in patients compared to controls, suggesting dysfunctional integration of the brain and supporting the notion of schizophrenia as a disconnection syndrome.
Our study now reveals that Parp3 is essential for zebrafish development, implying that Parp1 and Parp2 cannot compensate for the biological functions of Parp3 during development and supporting the notion that Parp3 functions are distinct from those of Parp1 and Parp2 during vertebrate development.
Five days after Cre transfection, cells expressing M-GFP and mCherry were found to be separate populations, consistent with the stochastic and mutually exclusive choice of expression and supporting the notion that the selected cell lines had only single copy STARS transgene in the genome (Fig. 2b).
The acceleration of OVA-induced asthma in MyD88−/−NOD mice is in agreement with the pharmacological effects of TLR agonists in this model, corroborating their postulated mode of action and supporting the notion that environmental infectious agents contribute to the modulation of allergic reactions through TLR stimulation.
Family studies have demonstrated that undiagnosed relatives of individuals with autism show sub-threshold traits characteristic of autism (the 'broader autism phenotype'), suggesting that these behaviors are familial and supporting the notion that these behaviors lie on a continuum of impairment (Bailey et al. 1998).
This is perhaps not surprising since we found a moderate correlation between baseline and follow up meat consumption in this healthy population, suggesting relatively stable meat consumption over the 4 years period, and supporting the notion that nutrient intake is relatively stable and tends to be more stable with increasing age [ 28, 29].
This highlights a close developmental relationship between blood and cardiac lineages and supports the notion of plasticity.
Scientists in 2010 alternately challenged and supported the notion of a dry moon and the role of a single meteorite impact that closed the Cretaceous Period.
Together these studies provide insight into how peers influence young drivers' risky behaviour, and support the notion of using peer education tools in young driver safety interventions.
This is consistent with the stability of diffusion properties in this group and supports the notion that the significant interaction for the intervention subjects did not arise due to differences in measurement noise over time.
