Effects of the leadership styles on nurses’ intention to quit The current study showed that there was a weakly significant effect of the leadership styles of nurse managers on the nurses’ intention to quit.

While a relatively lesser intention to leave the profession was observed with enhanced transformational leadership practice, there was an increasing trend towards quitting the job with respect to transactional and laissez‐faire leadership styles.

Among the elderly participants, there was a substantial improvement in competence between the pre-and post-test scores, with a highly significant p-value of 0.0001.

Similarly, an increasing trend was observed by other researchers too [ 7 , 21 , 22 ].

By six months post-op, the plate fixation group maintained significantly better DASH scores, reflecting greater functional recovery compared to the K-wire group, with a p-value of 0.01 indicating a highly significant difference and reinforcing the superior outcomes in the plate fixation group.

The difference in the operative time in all three treatment groups was found to be highly significant and was probably attributed to the smaller incisions in the PFNA group.

While no significant difference in the re-bleeding rate was appreciated, there was a favorable trend toward decreased re-bleeding in the TXA group [ 86 ].

The study showed a trend toward a decrease in SDF (measured using SCSA), but a statistically significant increase in aniline blue staining (AB).

The data reveals a clear trend of overprescription, with 30% of patients receiving antibiotics without documented EoI.

The age cohort of 30-39 showed a notable initial decline from 2000 to 2002 (APC: -40.8; see Table 3 , Appendix Table 9 ), followed by a more recent increase, which is quite significant (2002-2021).

At the 5 mm level, Group 3b (mean 0.60) showed a better centering ratio compared to Group 3a (mean 0.26), with p = 0.006 (highly significant difference observed).

Encouragingly, three-fifths of the participants experienced either no side effects or mild ones, suggesting a positive trend in promoting COVID-19 vaccine acceptance within our community.

In RLS, the TyG index was demonstrated to be a highly significant parameter for increased severity and high BMI (Table 4 ).

Additionally, CK levels showed a decreasing trend in the subsequent months, but normal values were only achieved after one year.

Although the overall incidence of BDI was low, use of ICG showed a trend toward lower BDI rates compared to WL, though the difference was not statistically significant.

However, in the postpartum period, the fibrinogen concentration shows a decreasing trend.

A mean severity score of 2.93 for dental caries and 3.05 for periodontal problems is associated with spicy food consumption, as indicated by a significant p-value of 0.07, suggesting a trend toward significance but not reaching conventional levels.

Finally, with a highly significant p-value of 0.01 for dental caries and 3.25 for periodontal diseases, poor fruit and vegetable consumption is linked to the highest mean severity ratings, highlighting the preventive role of fruits and vegetables in oral health.

In relation to the number of dental examinations performed annually, the patients who get 0-1 examinations had the highest mean caries index (3.20) and periodontal index (3.10), both of which show a tendency toward significance with a p-value of 0.07.

An apparent trend was observed towards better outcomes in the beta-blocker group, with a median overall survival of 9.93 months in the group not taking β-blockers versus 14.90 months in the β-blocker group (p = 0.291) and a median progression-free survival of 5.37 in the group not taking β-blockers versus 10.87 months in the β-blocker group (p = 0.151).

Fourteen indicators demonstrated a decreasing trend in job satisfaction amongst trainees from pre-pandemic to post-pandemic years, six of which were statistically significant (Table 3 ).

Postoperative physiatrist follow-up did not show a significant interaction with BMI change, but it approached significance, indicating that patients under physiatrist follow-up tended to gain relatively more weight.

When the duration of surgery was assessed, it showed a trend of increasing POH incidence with prolonged surgery.

On multivariate analysis, high tumour grade was borderline significant with a p-value of 0.051 (Table 6 ).

The prevalence of multimorbidity is closely linked to age, with a notable trend showing that polypharmacy increases as individuals grow older [ 9 , 26 , 27 ].
