“a numerical trend”

For HCC patients with HBV, atezolizumab plus bevacizumab provided a numerical trend toward better OS than most of the treatments and conferred a similar survival benefit when compared to other combination therapies ( Supplementary Fig. 18 ).

8 demonstrated a numerical trend favouring internal drainage, although equivalence was not established.

Interestingly, there was also a numerical trend toward an increased infection risk in the intervention groups, which needs to be further addressed in future RCT and meta-analyses.

This showed a numerical trend favoring panitumumab that did not reach statistical significance [ 6 ].

Patients receiving Bravelle ® had a numerical trend towards higher chemical, clinical, continuing pregnancy rates as well as live birth rates (Figure 2 ), but the results did not attain statistical significance.

Although this difference was modest, it indicates a numerical trend toward shorter PACU stay among patients treated with acetaminophen; however, the difference was not statistically significant and should not be interpreted as evidence of clinically meaningful improvement in postoperative recovery efficiency.

Although increasing uncontrolled risk factor burden was associated with a numerical trend toward higher AF recurrence, this did not reach statistical significance; this may reflect limited power, and the finding should be interpreted as hypothesis-generating rather than evidence of no clinically relevant gradient.

No single findings in the clinical assessment were able to differentiate between pSpA and non-SpA, but there was a numerical trend towards lower scores in patients’ global assessment in patients with pSpA (5.6±1.6) versus non-SpA (6.5±2.5), which was similar also in the physicians’ global assessment ( table 1 ).

Nonetheless, there was a numerical trend towards higher frequencies in the ICU versus outpatient group ( Table 1 ).

PFS was descriptively analyzed in prespecified subgroups and findings were generally consistent with the main analysis conducted in the intention-to-treat population ( Fig 2B ); however, there was a numerical trend that favored treatment with T-DM1 for patients who had received previous neoadjuvant or adjuvant therapy with trastuzumab or lapatinib (prior treatment: HR, 0.75 [97.5% CI, 0.52 to 1.09]; no prior treatment: HR, 1.12 [97.5% CI, 0.82 to 1.54]) and for patients who had received prior taxane (prior taxane: HR, 0.69 [97.5% CI, 0.48 to 0.99]; no prior taxane: HR, 1.10 [97.5% CI, 0.85 to 1.41]).

Although the results of this fourth experiment show a numerical trend of increased sensitivity to reward in Syrian children, the 95% Bayesian credible interval around this difference was broad and encompassed zero.

Based on effect sizes, a numerical trend toward greater efficacy was also observed on each of the newly defined subscales in rivastigmine-treated patients compared with placebo.

In this study, the spxB gene was expressed in dentinal lesions, but although it presented a numerical trend toward greater expression in active lesions, no statistically significant difference was observed between arrested and active dentinal lesions.

When comparing the groups, a numerical trend was observed in the survival curves, with the NIBF group showing a slightly higher dermatitis-free survival rate at baseline compared to the ZnO group.

[ 137 ], of the 16 TP53 mut MN who underwent alloHCT, 7 achieved a clearance of TP53 mut (by NGS) pre‐alloHCT and had a numerical trend towards improved survival (25.2 vs. 11.7 months).

However, comparison of the two testing conditions did show a numerical trend of stronger collaborative inhibition for item recall versus source retrieval, which is consistent with the pattern in our recent study ( Ke et al., 2017 ).

There was a numerical trend towards a reduction in deterioration from baseline with nintedanib compared with placebo for some additional PROs, including in some subgroups with less-advanced disease.

Overall, there was a numerical trend toward lower overlap within discordant CD twin pairs.

A numerical trend is observed on the metabolic activity of host cells exposed to pBD-5 (Fig. 5 b).

Hazard ratio was calculated for risk of obtaining a non-diagnostic sample Results SS mean cellularity 45.7% SD 25.7 FS mean cellularity 72.9% SD 17.0 Difference in mean cellularity 27.2% two-tailed p-value=.08 Hazard ratio of obtaining a non-diagnostic sample with SS: HR 5 p=0.28 No statistically significant difference in results but a numerical trend is noted.

Although a numerical trend showing reduced IL-6 expression was observed across all three active treatment arms (CLX 20 mg/kg, SPG 50 mg/kg, SPG 100 mg/kg), these differences did not achieve statistical significance relative to the Control group.

In our present study, we similarly saw a numerical trend in reduced risk of one‐year DWFG in the recent eras.

61 Nonetheless, a numerical trend in favour of combination therapy was noted, which the authors suggested might have clinical value in selected high-risk patients with residual disease activity despite bDMARD therapy.

This may be related to small sample size (there was a numerical trend toward higher levels in the activated T-cell hepatitis patients) or may reflect sIL2R is a non-specific marker of T-cell activation that may be elevated in a number of different pathologic conditions.

The number of HESs did not differ significantly between the groups or in patients with RF, although there was a numerical trend toward a higher number of HESs in disease groups compared with healthy controls ( table 2 ).
