Based on current evidence, this systematic review finds a clear trend that short EAs may enhance pregnancy rate, live birth rate and DFI.

In none of the strata considered could we detect a significant trend in 1-year NS ( Table 3 ) and in 5|2-year CNS ( Table 5 ).

In the age stratum 70–79 years, a weakly significant decrease in 2-year NS from 71.4% to 65.7% occurred.

Multivariate analysis adjusting for age group at diagnosis and geographic area showed an excess risk of death at 5|2-years, of borderline significance, in 2003–2015 versus 1990–2002.

Most patients were characterized by Hurley grade III HS; (3) Results: The use of PRP injection in reconstructions (skin flaps) improved healing and reduced the number of complications, a notable trend in this study.

Our study obviously has limitations in the number of groups—Co-graft ADM and STSG and STSG group—and it is difficult to draw firm conclusions from this comparison; however, we note a positive trend of better healing and shorter hospitalization time in the Co-graft ADM and STSG group (7 days vs. 10 days).

Although statistical power was constrained and resulted in only marginally significant differences between peak and 24-h values, similar outcomes were discernible for cTnI.

In a small case series comparing small terminal coronary targets revised from end-to-side to terminal side-to-side configuration for poor graft flow, there was a highly significant four-fold increase in intraoperative graft flow [ 52 ].

With regard to physical pain, there was a marginally significant negative association between the momentary intensity of physical pain and salivary oxytocin.

Both CCL5 rs2280788-GC and CCL5 rs2280789-CC genotypes in their study showed a slightly significant association with TNBC risk [ 30 ].

Therefore, the serum sodium concentrations do not decrease but instead show an increasing trend.

No major differences in serum VEGF concentrations were found between the groups (median 70 and 50 pg/mL, Table 3 ), although there was a weak trend for higher levels in the HTx group.

Previous research studies in Spain on PA and diabetes have constantly shown a higher frequency of sedentary lifestyle among people with diabetes than in the general population and suggested a negative trend in the adherence to PA recommendations overtime [ 15 , 18 , 19 , 20 , 21 , 22 , 23 , 24 , 25 , 26 ].

Nevertheless, a slight trend emerged among patients before receiving BNB implantation, needing more MMEs than those receiving the block, however, this again did not reach significance.

Our data suggests a possible trend towards lower narcotic requirements for patients receiving a BNB, however it failed to reach statistical significance.

As far as the future is concerned, the experts see a clear trend towards leadless technology.

Our univariate Cox proportional-hazard models indicated that the adipose tissue-related features (VAT, SAT, and IMAT) were all marginally significant, while SAT volume, IMAT volume, bone density, and muscle density volume became significant ( p < 0.05) predictors in the multivariate Cox proportional-hazards model.

Resistance of non-beta-lactamase-producing strains to penicillins with inhibitors was significantly lower compared with ESBL(+) isolates, but showed an increasing trend after 2019.

With regard to clinical characteristics of epilepsy, a moderately significant positive correlation was found among P300 latency in all the references (especially in Cz and Pz) and duration of disease ( Table 5 ).

The results reached statistical significance on years 3 and 4, and they were of borderline significance for years 1 and 2.

An increasing trend in incidence was also recently observed among younger women of reproductive age, of 20 to 40 years [ 2 ].

Younger age was borderline significant p = 0.058. 3.2.2.

However, an exploratory subgroup analysis of CPS ≥ 1 with 22C3 antibodies showed a trend toward better use of avelumab (median OS, 14.9 months vs. 11.6 months; HR, 0.72).

Furthermore, subgroup differences after stratification for recruiting centers were also evaluated and found to be marginally non-significant ( p for subgroup differences = 0.07; Figure S11 ).

In terms of clinical outcomes, the optimal recovery showed an increasing trend in the 2nd quintile and started to plateau after the third quintile.
