The differences in mean item scores between groups and the tendency of differences in consistency, may justify separate subgroup evaluation, based on criteria like socio-economics, oral health of the child and differences in cultural background.
There were a tendency of difference, but not statistically different, in the percentage improvement or the improved scores of 5 sub-grouped symptoms after the 3-week treatment between C3435T genotypes and between G2677T/A genotypes.
Block letters: difference between variants with DMPP and those without (significant effect of DMPP P = 0.015); Significant effect of NH4 + molarity (P = 0.007); small letters: tendency of difference between treatments (P = 0.055) (mean ± SE, n = 4, One* and Two-way ANOVA, Tukey test, α = 0.05).
When separated by gender, the significant difference was found in females, whereas there was a tendency of difference in males.
In 11 studies that disaggregated the total costs between males and females there was no consistent tendency of difference in absolute total costs.
In 12 studies that disaggregated data by socioeconomic status group, there was no consistent tendency of difference in the absolute total cost incurred.
However, differences in response tendency of different population groups could be used as an argument for case-mix adjustment when comparing the results for practices serving different populations [ 26].
The pressure-gradient force expresses the tendency of pressure differences to effectuate air movement from higher to lower pressure.
The overall tendency of the differences of the receiver DCBs in Fig. 2 reveals that the values obtained from the single DCB estimation are larger than the estimates from the relative DCB estimation.
As opposed to the last suggestion, this can be taken as an indication for a tendency of genetic differences to dissolve the patterns of spatial clustering at the levels of nearest neighborhood.
