“a numerical trend”

Although individual complication rates did not demonstrate statistically significant differences between groups, the ERAS protocol showed a numerical trend toward lower complication rates.

However, a numerical trend was observed in the coronal dentin region, where dentin adjacent to SFC-active showed slightly higher mineral density than dentin under the conventional composite, but slightly lower than dentin adjacent to RMGIC.

(2015) evaluated riluzole as an adjunct to serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SRIs) but failed to show statistically significant superiority over placebo despite a numerical trend favoring riluzole [ 28 ].

DOAC therapy was associated with lower odds of mortality (aOR 0.84, 95% CI 0.71-0.98), while VKA therapy showed a numerical trend toward lower odds of mortality (aOR 0.86, 95% CI 0.72–1.01).

Nevertheless, if the initiation of the motor response toward the contralesional side requires more effort, this would lead to make a prediction of fewer stop errors in the ataxic visual field, which was indeed observed as a numerical trend in the present study but did not reach significance.

Results: No statistically significant difference in mortality was observed (p = 0.182), although a numerical trend toward lower mortality in the de-escalation group was noted.

While the trial showed a numerical trend toward improvement in hyperphagia questionnaire for clinical trials (HQ-CT) total scores at week 13, the difference vs placebo did not reach statistical significance [ 13 ].

Although some studies report a numerical trend toward higher VTE rates with higher doses of JAK inhibitors, these observations have not reached statistical significance, and absolute event rates remain low [ 51 ].

Gingival thickness and volumetric outcomes Volumetric analysis revealed a numerical trend toward greater tissue augmentation in the CAF + L-PRF group.

Thus, although a numerical trend toward more bronchospasm in foreign body cases was observed, the data did not support routine neuromuscular blocker use in this setting.

Although BV showed a numerical trend toward greater edema reduction at later time points, these differences were not statistically significant and should be interpreted cautiously.

In stratified analyses, patients with wider baseline QRS duration and female sex showed a numerical trend toward greater benefit with the AP strategy, although these findings did not reach statistical significance and should be interpreted cautiously.

Furthermore, although our findings suggest a numerical trend toward deeper CF measurements in the MCM group in later weeks of gestation, the lack of consistent statistical significance supports that fissure differences, if present, are not widespread but region-specific.

Analysis of BA species in cecal homogenates revealed an interaction between microbial status and fat ( p = 0.026) for DCA ( Figure 5D ), where HFVHC-fed SPF mice exhibited significantly increased levels relative to all groups except for HF, although a numerical trend was evident.

Nonetheless, the T-VEC-pembrolizumab group showed a numerical trend toward longer median PFS (14.3 months vs. 8.5 months) and slightly higher ORR (48.6% vs. 41.3%) and DRR(42.2% vs. 34.1%), while maintaining a comparable safety profile [ 74 ].Although the combination of T-VEC and pembrolizumab did not achieve a significant overall survival advantage in the first-line setting for advanced melanoma, it remains under active investigation in PD-1 inhibitor-refractory melanoma and other malignancies.

Results: This study revealed a numerical trend toward higher patient satisfaction with on-site consultations across both age groups, particularly among those aged 18-40, although the difference among patients aged >41 years was minimal; however, these differences were not statistically significant.

80%; p = 0.96), but declined to 54% versus 38% at 36 months (p = 0.17), showing a numerical trend favoring DES during longer follow-up.

In the propensity score-matched cohort, we observed a numerical trend toward higher median IFX trough levels and a lower incidence of ADAs in the combination group compared with IFX monotherapy.

Discussion Our results suggest a numerical trend toward higher rubber yield and stability in the rainy season, which may be partly attributed to elevated precipitation and temperature.

In the psychomotor domain, IVR simulation did not significantly enhance skill performance (SMD = 0.49, 95% CI: −0.24–1.22), despite a numerical trend favoring the intervention.

Of note, although cT stage—particularly T4a—is widely recognized as a strong predictor of peritoneal metastasis, in our univariate analysis it did not reach statistical significance ( P = 0.077), despite a numerical trend toward higher metastasis rates in cT4 patients.

13 , 14 Although a numerical trend toward poorer cognitive outcomes was observed among individuals with severe obesity, the association was not statistically significant (OR = 1.06, 95% CI: 0.71-1.58).

23 Although PFS did not differ significantly, a numerical trend favoring maintenance therapy was observed.

Considering the different age groups at diagnosis, there was however a numerical trend towards a higher prevalence of patients with pure ILC in the parous patients diagnosed between 41 and 50 years of age (OR 1.50, 95%CI 1.00–2.33, p-value 0.052) as shown in Supplementary Fig. 1.

Although survival curves showed a numerical trend favoring surgical resection in long-term outcomes, treatment modality was not independently associated with survival after adjustment for baseline covariates.
