“a numerical trend”

Because there was a numerical trend of higher salivary flow rate in the non-pregnant group, we compared the pregnant and non-pregnant groups adjusting for salivary flow rate by using analysis of covariance for salivary pH, and concentrations of calcium, phosphate, and sIgA.

In our larger mild dementia cohort, we did not detect a benefit of tDCS on K-MMSE–defined global cognition, but we did observe a small, statistically significant advantage in confrontation naming (K-BNT) favoring active tDCS and a numerical trend toward greater change on the RCFT in the active arm.

Overall, and for both ethnicities, there was a numerical trend towards a greater treatment effect with lixisenatide QD compared with lixisenatide BID.

Even though this study was not powered to demonstrate a difference, there was also a numerical trend for patients treated with FV‐100 at either 200 mg or 400 mg to have a lower severity of pain than those treated with valacyclovir.

The OS analysis suggested a numerical trend in favor of 500mg over 250mg despite the lack of a statistically significant difference ( 9 ).

Among these, there was a numerical trend indicative of a potential dose–response relationship particularly for pneumonia and sepsis, including septic shock ( table 3 ).

Although pooled mortality did not differ significantly between groups, a numerical trend toward higher mortality in letermovir-treated patients was observed in some cohorts.

Second, a numerical trend toward a higher prevalence of asymptomatic grade 1 pneumonitis at diagnosis was observed in patients with lung cancer than in those with non-lung cancers (61.9% vs 50.0%), possibly reflecting surveillance intensity variations rather than biological differences, as individuals with lung cancer typically undergo more frequent chest CT imaging for tumor response assessment.

In female patients assigned to mGPS category 1 or 2, a numerical trend towards longer OS was also observed in Arm A compared to Arm B, however, with statistical testing not revealing a significant survival difference between treatment arms (24.6 versus 16.7 months; P = 0.15) ( Supplementary Table S1 , available at https://doi.org/10.1016/j.esmoop.2024.103374 , Figure 4 A and B).

Furthermore, a numerical trend toward higher chronic kidney disease in the urgent group was evident.

For MIBS-4, a numerical trend was observed (minor overlap in CI) suggesting, that on average, those suffering from milder symptoms between migraines (MIBS-4 score less than or equal to 4) placed more importance on “method of delivery” (mean 3.54, CI 3.40–3.68) than those with a score greater than or equal to 5 (mean 3.29, CI 3.17–3.41).

The amplitude pattern for the early effect resembled that found in our previous fMRI study, in that it was found for both familiar and unfamiliar faces, though there was a significant modulation by view (with greater deflections for same than different views, at least for familiar faces), which was only a numerical trend in our fMRI data.

For example, looking specifically at the tannin measurements, while it may not be statistically significant, we see a numerical trend for a decrease in tannin with the increase in beetle density treatments.

15 Final OS results show a numerical trend favoring ipatasertib–paclitaxel (median OS 23.1 vs 18.4 months in ipatasertib vs placebo arm, stratified HR 0.62 [95% CI, 0.37-1.05]). 33 However, the Phase III IPATunity130 cohort A failed to show PFS benefit from the addition of ipatasertib to paclitaxel in patients with mTNBC harboring PIK3CA/AK

Although there was a numerical trend for an increasing incidence of all three outcomes with the numerically highest rate occurring for the FIB-4 highest tertile, the differences between tertiles were not statistically significant.

Although the effect of retention interval was not significant in the OIP condition, there did seem to be a numerical trend toward a reduction of the effect at the longer delay, this being especially evident from the ratio measure.

While they did not observe a statistically significant reduction in OS by Kaplan-Meier analysis, there was a numerical trend towards reduced survival in patients whose tumours demonstrated ZNF331 methylation.

ECL percentages at month 3 showed a numerical trend toward higher loss in the AFS group (12.3% vs. 8.6%), but this did not reach statistical significance (P = 0.092; 95% CI − 0.62 to 8.08).

The main effect of luminance polarity was not significant, F (1, 29) = 3.82, p = 0.060, ηp 2 = 0.12, despite a numerical trend toward higher transparency responses in the lighter-than-background condition (darker-than-background: M = 0.431, SE = 0.03; lighter-than-background: M = 0.529, SE = 0.04).

Besides the bias towards a lower real-time CO, real-time measurements showed a numerical trend towards a better agreement with the reference standard compared to the other CMR techniques.

There was a numerical trend for longer and heavier organs of ducks receiving 5% rice diets.

Differences in overall survival demonstrated a numerical trend favoring zanubrutinib (probability better than ≥80%) compared with ibrutinib (HR, 0.59; 95% CrI, 0.31-1.11), acalabrutinib (HR, 0.72; 95% CrI, 0.35-1.50), and BR/IR (HR, 0.65; 95% CrI, 0.23-1.75).

This effect could not be attributed to specific differences between single blocks by post-hoc tests, though there seemed to be a numerical trend for participants making slightly more errors in the middle of the experiment (lowest mean error rate: Block 1 = 5.7%, highest mean error rate: Block 3 = 7.7%, Block 6 = 6.8%).

However, there was a numerical trend towards a higher ORR in the ATM mutant group compared to the ATM wild-type group [ 16 ].

There was a numerical trend toward a smaller change in monthly migraine headache days after treatment discontinuation as the treatment duration increased.
