Excerpts

Nonsevere COVID-19 cases showed a trend to thrombotic pole.

The incidence of hemorrhagic fever in China has had a slightly increasing trend in recent years.

The results show that ARIMA model tends to forecast more accurate results for which there is a clear trend in the series, whereas LSTM tends to do better on volatile time series with more instable components.

Several studies using administrative data have noted an increasing trend in sepsis-related hospitalizations, but the rationale for this increasing trend is conflicting.

-statistics: where analyses adjusted for multiple comparisons? If so, how? Answer: The analyses were not adjusted for multiple comparisons since the number of comparisons is small and the p values in all comparisons were highly significant. -line 113: There seems to be a word missing in the last sentence.

We have amended the result to show 3 decimal places and to state that it is only borderline significant: “For “outcome expectations”, those aged 60-75 seemed more likely to have low motivations as compared to those aged 40-59, with borderline significance (adjusted OR 1.569, 95% CI 1.004-2.453, p=0.048).” We have also removed the outcome expectations from the discussion section given the marginally significant result.

There were extremely significant differences in 11 indices of leaf structure for these 35 healthy plants.

Pre-TKR subjects showed a trend of higher mid-stance EKAM (related to knee OA severity) with no clearly defined double peak ( Fig 3D ).

Overall, spring migrants also showed similar haematological profiles, with the only difference being a decreasing trend of H/L ratios across the season.

A decreasing trend was observed only in municipalities with very high social vulnerability for Income and Work (APC −1.8%).

Only the state of Minas Gerais showed an increasing trend, whereas nine other states showed a stationary trend.

Rainfall time series between 1964–2015 at latitudes 9°, 12° and 13° South encompass the cities of Paulo Afonso-BA, Sobradinho-BA, Bom Jesus da Lapa-BA and Irecê-BA, indicating a decreasing trend in precipitation by the Student t-test.

Thus, there is an increasing trend in sea surface temperatures over the Tropical Atlantic shifting the ITCZ northward, reducing rainfall south of the Equator [ 27 ].

Although the PDI value of the KPEVs did not significantly change in repeated freeze-thaw cycles, the heterogeneity of the KPEVs had an increasing trend ( Fig 4A , right).

As expected, when analysing a relatively small number of patient samples, variance is high, but with a clear trend for increased values for all measured markers.

There was highly significant step-wise increases in total heart weight and LV weight between sham-operated mice, ORAB 0.66 and ORAB 0.55 ( Fig 3 , panel B and C).

Although there were no significant differences between CRE and ESBL-producing Enterobacteriaceae , an increasing trend was observed, which might have been influenced by an increase in the total number of samples.

There was no significant difference between candidemia and CDI; however, a decreasing trend was observed.

At baseline, despite randomization, women with PCOS randomized to metformin (PCOS-met) had higher systolic and diastolic blood pressure, and had a borderline significant higher BMI, compared with those in the placebo group (PCOS-plac).

Despite a decreasing trend in the general population, the prevalence of HIV has been reported to be higher among PWID.

The change in the categorized insomnia diagnosis (worse, unchanged, improved) showed a trend toward improvement of insomnia status in the BB-group from baseline to posttreatment, whereas the opposite was the case for the control group, though not significant.

In our approach, one surrogate variable showed nominally significant differences between groups and were included in our models.

However, descriptive variables that had shown a statistical trend were selected to be included in a corrected ANOVA as covariates (Model 2).

As shown in Table 4 , the coefficients on the instrumental variable, CSL , in the first-stage regression are positive and highly significant.

Moreover, (v) sVCAM-1 levels showed a trend for exercise-associated reduction, and sex-stratified analyses indicated different responses in males, compared to females, with post-exercise increases in IL-16 and decreases in VEGF-A levels in males only.
